Day 4, Thursday - Letter to Sadako

Visit the Kid's Peace Station: Letters to Sadako. Read some of the letters to Sadako.  On a paper entitled 'Letters to Sadako', answer the following question in a response paragraph:

1) Sadako is not alive, but people are writing letters to her.  Why?  Who do you think is really reading these letters?  Why is this important?
2) Choose a letter that someone has written to Sadako that you can relate to.  Copy the text from this letter, along with the name of the author, and explain how you agree with this letter.
3) Choose a letter that someone has written that is very different from your own feelings.  Copy the text from this letter, along with the name of the author, and explain how you disagree with this letter.

On a seperate piece of paper, with a title of your choice, write your own letter to Sadako.  This letter can be about the book, or how the book inspired you, or how you feel.  Try to be honest and don't rush it and make it too short!

After you have written your letter, post it on the website by using the send letter form.

  5. Hey kids, nice to see you getting to work already. As I promised, today's homework is more challenging. Tomorrow's will be even more challenging, and on the weekend your work will be very independent.

    Nisan, sorry you're not fond of that first paragraph, but it's the kind of work that my grade 5s would do in Canada, so you're getting the kind of English education a native would get. That's pretty cool, but yeah, pretty challenging. However, I know you guys can do it because you've all impressed me this year!
