  • How is my identity shaped and reshaped by the individuals and circumstances I encounter in my life?
  • Who is in my universe of obligation? Who is in my community’s universe of obligation?
  • How can the stories we tell about ourselves and others lead to “in” groups and “out” groups? How can they create empathy and strengthen community?

    • As you read and study your chapter, use the questions above as lenses through which to view Misha and his choices.

Comment on the challenge and how he deals with it. Read below to see what your writing needs to show.

    Please take the time to read:
    What was a significant challenge that Misha faced in this chapter of the book? Misha faces the constant threat of deportation and death, all the while dealing with hunger, sickness, loss, and worry about his family and friends. Which of these is most apparent in your chapter of the book? Is the challenge external or internal? ​
    Now, consider how/where Misha found the strength to survive his difficult times in ​your chapter of 
    the book. ​Did the support come in the form of a friend or a member of his family? Religion and spirituality? Inner strength? Decide on one-two kinds of support Misha found and ​explain​ how they helped him with the challenge. (Use direct quotations.)
