Snow Day 2/3

Hello everyone! I hope you are doing well! I can't wait to see you all at school tomorrow!

I got a great Black Dog snow sculpture picture from Sam Cote yesterday (outlined so we can see it): https://drive.google.com/a/hopkinton.k12.ma.us/file/d/0B-PW-VslhicUcXpmaUtheXFEZ3NuRzAyQjVrSjlkUDRYU05j/view?usp=sharing

And one from Sydney McDonald last week,featuring Louisa, Chay and Black Dog: https://drive.google.com/a/hopkinton.k12.ma.us/file/d/0B-PW-VslhicUam9LbE9qNmluMzJNQlFqTFVRUVFRc0MtODFR/view?usp=sharing.

Your new assignment is here: Please read each statement and write a few sentences explaining why you agree with it, or why you disagree. No wishy-washy opinions allowed! Pick a side and argue strongly for it. Support your opinion with a specific example and clear explanation! Be persuasive. 1st person allowed!

This can be hand written or typed.

These are ideas that will be explored as we read To Kill a Mockingbird, which we will begin on Thursday!


You shouldn’t hate anyone
If you grow up with prejudiced parents, you will inevitably become prejudiced.
It is fair for parents to tell their kids, “Do as I say, not as I do”
