Hello Seventh Period!

For your ORB written assignment, I am requiring you to make three postings about your ORB to this blog. You must choose three different options from the "blogging options" handout (on First Class). I am looking for superb commentary, which should make obvious why your ORB "educates your conscience."

Please, adhere to the expectations explained on the rubric (also on First Class).

Happy blogging!

Summer Ball

Michael Pappas

Character Sketch

My first impression of Danny Walker was that he was a little guy who got knocked down alot but always kept getting up. In a way he reminds me of Elie Weisel. Although what Danny has to go through is nothing compared to the Holocaust that Elie has to go through, they both over come challenges and keep persevering. We can learn about the challenges he must overcome, the things and people he loves, and his outlook on life. You can tell that people respect him. "You know what this really is? It's Ty's dad cutting you from travel all over again. another grown-up telling you you're not good enough. I thought you always used to tell me that the championship you guys really won in travel was the championship of any kid who got told by an adult they weren't good enough" (137).
