Chapters 5 & 6

Posted by Lara Parent




In chapter 5 Pacy talks about being confused as to what she is. Is she Chinese? Is she American? Is she Taiwanese?

My husband's parents were born and raised in Germany, but they are American citizens. They consider themselves Americans or German Americans.

1. What do you consider yourself? What countries did your parents come from? If you don't know, ask them tonight and blog your answer tomorrow.

2. Find China and Taiwan on a map. Show me these places. (Hint go to google maps.)

3. In chapter 6 there is confusion about something else. Explain what that is and why?

In chapter 6 the other confusion is that the lunch lady thought that the girl alredy took lunch. But the lunch lady gave her lunch though. But when the girl sat down she noticed that there was a girl that looked just like her. And both of them thought that they were almost idenical twins. Both of hte girls birthdays were a month away. And I forget the other ones though. But there was alot of almost idenical stuff going on with them. That's why the girl thought that the lunch lady thought that she alrady took lunch.

I think I consider myself half American and half Mexican. Because my
parents were born in Mexico but I was born in Washington.

I think that the thing we all don't get is what is she American or any other place she was born at.
