Prompt: How do you think Emma Lazarus wanted people
to feel about the Statue of Liberty?
Text Says
My Ideas
Help Me to See
brazen giant
conquering limbs
the words used to
describe Colossus
imply great power
I think the Colossus
might have been built
to frighten people
from other lands – or
to demonstrate how
strong Rhodes was
mighty woman
mild eyes
silent lips
these words that
describe Lady
Liberty are strong
but not as warlike
I think the author chose
these words to demonstrate
that the Statue of Liberty
represents America’s – the
qualities of the statue are
the qualities of the country:
mighty but also mild and
silent. We welcome people.
Lazarus wants us to love
the statue since it
represents America.

Some boys taught me to play football. This was fine sport. You thought up a
new strategy for every play and whispered it to the others. You went out for a pass,
fooling everyone. Best, you got to throw yourself mightily at someone’s running legs.
Either you brought him down or you hit the ground flat out on your chin, with your arms
empty before you. It was all or nothing. If you hesitated in fear, you would miss and get
hurt: you would take a hard fall while the kid got away, or you would get kicked in the
face while the kid got away. But if you flung yourself wholeheartedly at the back of his
knees – if you gathered and joined body and soul and pointed them diving fearlessly –
then you likely wouldn’t get hurt, and you’d stop the ball. Your fate, and your team's
score, depended on your concentration and courage. Nothing girls did could compare
with it
Boys welcomed me at baseball, too, for I had, through enthusiastic practice,
what was weirdly known as a boy’s arm. In winter, in the snow, there was neither
baseball nor football, so the boys and I threw snowballs at passing cars. I got in trouble
throwing snowballs, and have seldom been happier since.

Dragon, Dragon – pp. 191 – 200 – Book Bits
Every time there was a full moon the dragon came out of his lair and ravaged the
countryside.
If you change her into a rattlesnake we’ll have to chop her head off.
Suddenly a great shadow fell over him, and the eldest son looked up.
When he came in sight of the dragon’s lair, the middle son spurred his horse to a
gallop and thundered into the entrance swinging his sword with all his might.
At sight of the dragon, the cobbler’s youngest son began to tremble so violently that
his armor rattled like a house caving in.
She glared at the king.
“Oh, dear,” said the king, hurrying toward the door.
