Once again, I would like you to respond to two prompts (at least 150 words each) by Sunday at 8:00 p.m. Here they are: 1. Once news of Khalil’s shooting spreads across the neighborhood, unrest arises: “Sirens wail outside. The news shows three patrol that have been set ablaze at the police precinct...A gas station near the freeway gets looted...My neighborhood is a warzone” (Chapter 9, 136-139). Respond to this development and describe some parallels to current events. 2. How do you think Starr would define family? What about Seven? How do you define it?

Katelyn, I really liked the line about snow tasting like cucumbers! That's great. One thing to consider might be removing some of the punctuation. For example, there is at least one line that ends in a comma where you might have a period instead. Alternatively, you could remove most of the punctuation, only keeping the punctuation you really need---like commas in a list. But, great poem and fun to read!

I especially liked your last line, Madelyn––"winter can't reach me yet." I keep hoping that's the case, but you never know!

Alena, I really like this---I especially like the line: "The night of wishes and dreams, overturning to morning of happiness and wonder." I think you have really captured the spirit of the season.

I like this Porter. I think it shows a different side of you and it's interesting to read.
