Kindred Project Questions

1. My favorite Poem was the one that Kat, Sebastian and Michelle. I really liked the language and how it was put together.

2.Tia's group were the ones who I think had the best picture. The way the hour glass was really what drew me to it.

3. "Seconds count when something is trying to kill you."-Dana pg.51 is shows that are alot of times where Dana is going to put in a dangerous situation. and sometimes you have to do soem quick thinking to get you out of there.

4. I think it going to be a difficult relationship because Dana is black and Kevin is white with the time period that there in being married.

Dear Cristina,

I would like to persuade you to read my essay on McDonalds and its not so happy truth.

The greatest obstacles to this happening seem to be finding multiple examples of this.

I am also worried aboutNot being able to come up with a valid thesis.

What do you think of my essay?

Thanks for your help.

Sincerely,

Gaby
