FINALLY
I’m free from doing create tasks but now i have to do novel studies about a book named Refugee By Alan Gratz The summary on the back of the book says
” JOSEF is a Jewish boy living in the 1930s Nazi Germany. With the threat of concentration camps looming, he and his family board a ship bound for the other side of the world…”
“ISABEL is a Cuban girl in 1994. With riots and unrest plaguing her country, she and her family set out on raft , hoping to find safety in america…”
“MAHMOUD is a Syrian boy in 2015. With his homeland torn apart by violence and destruction, he and his family begin a long trek towards Europe.”
“All three kids go on harrowing journeys in search of refuge. All will face unimaginable dangers. From drownings to bombing to betrayals. But there is always the hope of tomorrow. And although Josef,Isabel and Mahmoud are separated by continents and decades, shocking Connections will tie their stories together in the end.”
So that is a summary about all of the characters in the book and why they are refugees hinting at the title of the book. the task i had to do surrounding the book is to look into the time period of when these characters stories are set. so for Josef i looked into the times when World War 2 started from 1938-1945 and for Isabel i looked into why Cubans were fleeing the country during 1994. and for Mahmoud i looked into the syrian civil war and how that took place during 2015. i did all of this on one canva presentation covering everything i talked about in this description.
Hello This is me Like 2 weeks or something later and i have finished more tasks now. My first task was to make a presentation about the Jewish tradition known as Kriah. I will explain what Kriah is in my presentation. My next create task is (spoilers for refugee) To make a diary entry for Mahmoud on how his sister died in the story. i explained how Mahmoud’s sister died and tried to make it from his perspective. And both of them are presentations by the way.
For the last task of Week 4 I Made a poem on how one of the characters in this book Ivan. The way ivan died is by getting eating by sharks so expect it to talk about sharks and the water and other stuff like that. My poem is below so read it now.
