Words that are Speaking to Me ? TWO WRITING TEACHERS

Words that are Speaking to?Me

?

?What?s the point of living if you?re going to hate the world? Guard your heart if you have to, but don?t shut it away.?

?Neal Shusterman, Bruiser

I?ve been fighting to get this blog post up for the past 28 hours. So there?s a quote by a new favorite writer of mine. Find out more about Bruiser by Neal Shusterman in my book stack?post.

Also I shared six minilesson ideas for this passage:

Then she arched over backward. She flung her arms over her head and made a perfect backbend. She looked like a turned-over pink teacup. Then she rose back up ??boing?? like a doll with elastic in its legs.

?Annie Barrows,?Ivy + Bean and the Ghost that had to Go

Forgive the double-duty of posts?with internet issues and college kids leaving, this is the best I could do.
