HW Mr. Padilla 3-16-16


 
Homework:
Parents/please assist your child with today’s homework. 

Objective: to use a graphic organizer to compare two texts. Read the background passages for Esperanza Rising and Persepolis, then fill the graphic organizer.


Option 3: 

Esperanza Rising  

Twelve-year-old Esperanza Ortega has grown up the daughter of a wealthy Mexican rancher and his wife. But tragedy strikes: her father is killed, and her step uncles take over the family home. Esperanza and her mother must flee their home and journey to a new life in California.
Life in California is nothing like what Esperanza is used to. She and her mother must live with their former servants in a farm labor camp.

Persepolis

Marjane Satrapi grew up in Iran… as things started getting bad. Students were segregated by gender…women's rights receded …and family members were executed simply because they were suspected to be spies. It's a rough time to grow up there… but Marjane not only survives protests and bombings—she moves to Vienna, then back to Iran, and then manages to leave again.


Option 2:
