I think that she has accomplished her goal in uniting different cultures around the world. Her story accomplishes her goal. The End.]]> 2019-04-18 12:05:47 UTC https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352531435 https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352531484 I think she accomplished her goal with the story. I now know what it’s like to be a small Chicano boy. Also a small Chicano boy falls in love with someone from a different background. The story does express universal concerns and themes. Universal concerns. Everybody knows how hard it is to live in a junkyard. Everybody knows how hard it is to be in love with somebody while living in a junkyard. Everybody knows. Universal, because everybody.]]> 2019-04-18 12:06:05 UTC https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352531484 https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352531543 Catch the Moon does not accomplish Cofer's goal because Luis and Naomi have the same cultural background. They are both from latin descend, so there is no cultural bridge between the two of them. The story does express universal concerns because it illustrates how Luis is in an inner city "gang" in their barrio.]]> 2019-04-18 12:06:33 UTC https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352531543 https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352531588 Judith Ortiz Cofer has always traveled between the Latina world and the American world her goal is to unite the two through culture. that has already happened because America is the melting pot I don't believe this book has any effect on this issue but America accepts all races and color and bridges have been made]]> 2019-04-18 12:06:59 UTC https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352531588 https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352531589 Catch the Moon accomplishes the goal of building a "bridge" between cultures. Cofer ties together multiple cultures. Naomi and Luis are not of the same background and yet they are connected. ]]> 2019-04-18 12:07:00 UTC https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352531589 https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352531639  I think the "Catch the moon" accomplishes Cofer's goal of building bridges between cultures Luis is a Mexican boy and saw a English show and changed the name shark into Spanish for the name of his group of his friends. Luis and Naomi don't have the same culture background yet they are still united together. It doesn't concern them that they don't have a equal background. Judith is trying to teach us that it doesn't matter where you from or what you background is. ]]> 2019-04-18 12:07:23 UTC https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352531639 jessicasandor95 https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352531798 I believe "Catch the Moon" accomplishes the goal of building bridges between cultures because Cofer ties in a bond between two families and nations. The story expresses universal concerns regarding personal change. The main character changes throughout the story. Beginning with a bad reputation, he then develops and turns into a different person after realizing he could make better decisions with his life. ]]> 2019-04-18 12:08:33 UTC https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352531798 reynoldstiller1 https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352531840 I think that "Catch the Moon" by Judith Ortiz Cofer partly accomplishes Cofer's goal of building bridges between cultures because the story is about latinas living and working in America. It expresses universal concerns and themes because she ties in a lot of issues our society deals with today, like the gang that Luis is in and all of the issues he goes through from his mom's death. ]]> 2019-04-18 12:08:53 UTC https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352531840 https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352532183 I believe that Catch the Moon does accomplish her goal. In the short story, she manages to tie together the cultures. In her everyday life, she tries to bring the cultures together. She shows this throughout her characters in the book. This story does express universal concern because she shows how Luis is in a "gang" that is funded throughout the school. Before he was in his little "gang", he was in jail.]]> 2019-04-18 12:11:45 UTC https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352532183 https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352532683 After reading this story, I don't really think that the story accomplishes the goal of building bridges and forming connections. this means that the story doesn't form any of the connections that she said her goal was meant to be. I do think that she tried to tie the two cultures together, But she did find a balance that made for a good, well balanced story. ]]> 2019-04-18 12:16:07 UTC https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352532683 https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352532873 Judith is from Puerto Rico and she traveled to America and her father was in the navy. She says she will always stay we’re shes from as in she is Latina she’s not gonna change and she doesn’t want anyone else to and in the story having these characters it is showing her building blocks are working.]]> 2019-04-18 12:17:34 UTC https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352532873 https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352533012 2019-04-18 12:18:28 UTC https://padlet.com/vannahscarborough/69fvvgaeyt0b/wish/352533012
