|---|
|
Speculation about effects writing allows you to consider what reasonably could happen next in the story. What will life in America be like for Rifka? Will she become a poet? Will she enter the medical field? Will her hair grow completely out? Will her hair make a difference in whether or not she marries? |
| Writing Situation |
|---|
| At the end of the story Rifka left Ellis Island to go home with her family. Think about what you know about Rifka. What will happen to her next? |
| Writing Directions |
|---|
- Speculate about Rifka's future. Convince others students who will read your paper what Rifka's life in America will be like.
- Use her resiliency factors as evidence to support your prediction of her future.
- State reasons why you think Rifka's life will be as you see it.
- Refer back to her letters to support your reasons. You may include conversation and/or a scene from her new life in America.
