Many of these books are designed for younger readers. Why would I be reading them to all of you, who can understand much more than the younger students?
2. Some of these books have animals who have happy lives and some who do not. Why do you think we are looking at these? 
3. How can Ivan, Anju, and Abigale have better lives? Is there something we can do as humans to help them?
4. Can you think of another animal that is not treated in the best way possible?
5. If animals cannot speak up for themselves, how are they supposed to fight for what is right for them? Is there someone else who should fight for them? ]]> 2018-12-02 17:40:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mcsesselman/5c71iq3nclgj/wish/310192163 mcsesselman https://padlet.com/mcsesselman/5c71iq3nclgj/wish/310193116 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvhWqKoHDy0

They will need to include the different things they will do and who they are trying to help. 
2. The students can write letters to different organizations to help fight for animal rights.
