Notes


  • The Author’s Note at the beginning of The Rough-Face Girl says, “To see good rewarded and evil punished, or justice, is rare. Stories, however, pass on the realities not of the everyday world but of the human heart. One way in which the universal yearning for justice has been kept alive is by the many tales of Cinderella.” As many of these lessons do teach students that kindness and goodness are rewarded, it is important to remember that this does not always happen in real life. The quote above reminds us, though, of the importance of striving for justice.
  • Today's Target Task is an Essential Questions Deep-Dive.
