This week's focus will be school integration. We will build on our knowledge from Remember the Titans to see how other groups of people were discriminated when trying to go to school. You will read about Sylvia Mendez, a Mexican-American girl who fought for her right to a proper education. This play is a true story. We will practice using some new vocabulary words - prejudice (added), discrimination, citizen, inferior, petition, and qualified - and work to develop strong paragraphs.
