A lot of trips in the school

This weekend I'm leaving to California with the middle schoolers. I'm going to help out with the organization and I'm going to see about what they have been studying. I will leave to California and I will go to Las Vegas, Yosemite and Death Valley. And then I will communicate whats happening in Esperanza Rising

When I come back I will talk with you about what I read.
Thank you very much, Nesblythereader

Esperanzas's choices

Does Esperanza has to make a choice?

Her choices is that if she whats to be happy or unhappy.
Esperanza can't believe that she is poor,because she doesn't like the people that is poor she things that she is rich.

I think that Esperanza is acting mean with everybody,because she things that is not the place that she has to be in.
I don't think she is felling comfortable with poor people.

what to you think is the better choice?

Simile of Esperanza

what is a simile?
Simile is using like or as, it compares words and things.n

The author use the simile to star thinking on a action.

I star thinking and i did a simile to express the book.

Esperanza is moving away on the train like a bird flying to a new place.

Esperanza is acting mean like a snake fighting for her food.

Here are some similes that we found in the book.

The guavas smell fresh and sweet like pears and oranges all in one.
She remember standing on a chair with her arms outstretched like a bird ready for flight.
Car with rows of wooden benches like church pews facing each other.
