3. KEEP IT REEL (Topic, Evidence - lines from the text, Explain)]]> 2017-10-24 20:06:43 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200191567 Samantha Garcia https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200192970 1) In Esperanza's neighborhood there are these children who are trouble maker, they are known as the Vargas children. They are without respect. People in Esperanza's neighborhood stared to care for them but as time went and the Vargas children were disrespectful people started to get tired of them. They would no longer look at them or help them or even talk to them. It looks like people in the neighborhood no longer care for the Vargas children.

2)
In my opinion I think that it is wrong that people should not mourn Angels Vargas death. I think this because even though he was bad disrespectful he was still a child even the youngest of all the Vargas children. He could have been taught to be good since he was still a child. But since people didn't care they just left them like they were. When bad person is bad and all grown up and knows what not to do and he/she still does it and at the end he/she dies people could no care less because thats not their responsibility. But when you are talking about a child that you are talking about then yes you should care. So in my opinion I really think that people in that neighborhood should mourn Angels Vargas Death.

3)
Esperanza's finds much to admire in Alicia. In the vignettes it says " Is a good girl, my friend". It also says that she doesn't want to bethe girl that Alicia's father wants her to be she want to go to college to have a better career. And that's what Esperanza also wants. Therefore Esperanza admire Alicia.]]> 2017-10-24 20:11:36 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200192970 Joslyn https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200192982 1 question) The other people in the neighborhood feel about the Vargas kids is that they are bad and not respectful kids. Some evidence about this is “The kids bend trees and bounce between cars and dangle upside down from knees and almost break like fancy museum vases you can’t replace.” This is showing how bad the kids acted and how they are not respectful and also how they make so much trouble.

2 question) people in the neighborhood didn’t really care when the Vargas kid died. I think that just because he was bad doesn’t mean that no one could of cared beacause he was just a kid and he didn’t know that he was doing bad things and his mother didn’t teach him how to act. Some evidence from the text is “The day angel vargas learned to fly and dropped from the sky like a sugar donut, just like a fallen star, and exploded down to earth without even an “oh.” This illustrates how no one even looked once at how the kid fell and died and how they didn’t cared about him diying.

3 question) Some sentences from the vignette are. These are the sentences I pulled out from the vignette showing why Esperanza looks up to Alicia. This is some evidence from the text “ Two trains and a bus, because she doesn’t want to spend her whole life in a factory or behind a rolling pin.” This shows how Esperanza relates to Alicia because Esperanza doesn’t want to be her whole life in “The house on mango street.”]]> 2017-10-24 20:11:38 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200192982 Romalyn https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200192999 1) The other people in the neighborhood feel about the Vargas kids they are just troublemakers and that they shouldn't care about them. Evidence in the book is " No wonder everybody gave up . Just stop looking out when little Efre chipped his buck tooth on a parking meter and didn't even stop Refugia from getting her head stuck between to slats in the back gate and nobody looked up at once the day Angel Vargas learned to fly and dropped from the sky Ike a sugar donut, just like falling star, no exploded down to earth without even an "oh" . It means that no one cared for the Vargas kids even though they keep hurting themselves or even worse killing themselves. This shows that the neighbors don't care about the Vargas kids .

2) In my opinion , the neighborhood should've cared when Angel Vargas died. Even though he was a troublemaker he is still a child. It's not his fault that his mother didn't really thought him respect because she was always tired . Troublemaker or not they should've cared for him .

3) Esperanza admires Alicia because of her dedication of wanting a good future for herself. Evidence in the book is, " Is a good girl, my friend , studies all nigh and sees he mice , the ones her father says do not exist". It means that Alicia studies very hard instead of waking up early to make food and clean up he house. This shows the fact that Esperanza admires Alicia.]]> 2017-10-24 20:11:43 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200192999 Jacob Julao https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193055 1.The way other people feel about the Vargas kids is that they aretrouble makers, in the text House on Mango Street it says" But after a while you get tired of being worried about kids who aren't even yours."

2. I think that the people in the neighborhood should care that a child died and no one cared about it. The reason beingis that he was still a child and was trying to either have some fun or he didn't know what he was doing.

3.Currently, Alicia wants to follow whatshe wants to do and Esperanza really admires it. Lines from the text that supports this is that from the text it says"Two trains and a bus, because she doesn't want to spend her whole life in a factory or behind a rolling pin." It also states" Is a good girl, my friend studies all night and sees the mice, the ones her father saysdo not exist]]> 2017-10-24 20:11:53 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193055 Angel b https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193090 Answer for house on mango street: I think that all kids should be given a respectful death even the bad ones because a child especially the small ones my be disrespectful but all kids are simpler in one common way they are all humans and humans make mistakes.

Answer 2: From the text I know that Esperanza looks up to Alicia "my friend studies all night and sees mice the ones that her father says doesn't exist]]> 2017-10-24 20:12:01 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193090 Azael Sanchez https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193135 1. Other people in the neighborhood feel that the Vargas kids are disrespectful and troublemakers. Evidence from the text to support this is,"And nobody looked up not once the day Angel Vargas learned to fly and dropped from the sky like a sugar donut, just like a falling star, and exploded down to earth without even an "Oh." This shows that nobody in the neighborhood cares about the Vargas kids and that people feel that the Vargas kids are unimportant because they didn't care that Angel Vargas died. This shows what the neighborhood feels about the Vargas kids.

2. I feel like the death of the child Angel Vargas should be cared from the neighborhood. This is because he wasn't necessarily a "bad" child he was just sneaky and wasn't obedient probably like any other young child. I feel like the death of the child should've been mourned because a child is a child no matter their behavior. They neighborhood should've been more selfless because the mom is a single mom with a whole load of kids so the neighborhoods should've been more selfless and not give up on them. This is what's I think.

3. Esperanza finds much admiration in Alicia because Alicia want a good future which is why she is studying Andy is goging to a university. Evidence from the text to support this is,"Is a good friend, my friend, studies all night and sees the mice, the ones her father says do not exist." This shows that Esperanza admire Alicia's because Alicante wants a better future for herself and is someone's who is passionate and dedicated to doing what she wants and what she doesn't want. She faces challenges like Esperanza but Alicia knows how to overcome them which is why Esperanza admires Alicia.]]> 2017-10-24 20:12:13 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193135 Christian Martinez https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193197 1) I think that the other people in the neighborhood feel annoyed about the Vargas kids because they are very bad. According to the viennete "There was an old woman she had so many children she didn't know what to do" it states " They are bad those Vargases, and how can they help it with one mother." This shows that the neighborhood thinks they are bad.

2) In my opinion, I think that they should care if a child. I think this because what if that kid was good and still dies and noone cares that he's dead and don't even call for help, how would you feel if that's happened to you and noone cared. Another reason is because people don't notice, but they'd are losing more and more people especially when it's a kid. My last reason is because if he was one of your family members, would you really let him die and not be able to enjoy more in their future, that'll just be sad.

3) Alicia is a hard working female and and Esperanza finds much admiration from Alicia. According to the viennete "Alicia who seems mice" it states "Alicia who is inherited her mama's rolling pin and sleepiness, is young no smart and studies for the fist time at the university." This shows that this quote is shows Esperanza's

admiration.

2)I also think that this kids should learn to behave after what happened to his brother and do your asked so people in your neighborhood look out for you

3)Alicia is ahard working female ]]> 2017-10-24 20:12:32 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193222 Alex https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193243 1) I think everyone in the neighborhood sees the Vargas kids as a paste because according to the text “ but after a while you get tired of bing worried about kids who aren’t even yours”
2) in my opinion just because a kid is bad it doesn’t mean that there death means nothing because how would you feel if nobody care you are dead so that’s why I think just because you were bad you don’t matter.
3) ]]> 2017-10-24 20:12:35 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193243 Luis B https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193293 1.I think that people should care about bad kids as good kids because everyone is important for this world everyone in the neighborhood didn’t care because dose kids make alot of problems and they did i not they’ll them to stop so that’s why they never do what they are asked to do.

2.i think that all the neighborhood didn’t care because they were trouble makers and that’s why I think why does the neighborhood did not care about them but one day one of the youngest kids was on top of a building roof and a men tell him to get off there but the kid did not care about was he said and then the kid fell all the way down and went into the floor with out any sound .

3.Alicia wants to have a great future that’s why she goes far away to go to the university because she wants a better future for her life because she is not having a good life right now so that’s why sha wants a better future for her so she will able to do new stuff and stuff that she like

Evidence that shows this is true is “ But after a while you get tired of worrying of kids who aren’t even yours.” This shows that people don’t care about the Vargas kids,
2) I think that all kids should be treated the same way. Beacuse they are just kids they don’t know what they are doing. When they are big enough they will notice that they have done something bad or right. Also people need to also care for others even if you don’t know then or do know them.
3)In the lines that show that Esperanza thinks that Alicia is a good role model . It is “is young and smart and studies for the first time t the university. Two trains and a bus,because she doesn’t want to spend her whole life in a factory of behin a rolling pin.” . This shows that Esperanza want to follow her dreams like Alicia.]]> 2017-10-24 20:12:59 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193368 Taj Brock-Question https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193465 People in the neighborhood feel indifferent on the subject of the Vargas kids. This is supported by the fact that nobody cared when little Angel Vargas fell out of a tree and died. This shows that people have learned to not care about what happens to the Vargas family.]]> 2017-10-24 20:13:20 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193465 Miranda https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193487 1) I think that the people from the neighborhood don’t really care about the Vargas kids. I think this because according to House On Mango Street, “But after a while you get tired of being worried about kids that aren’t even yours.” This shows that people just stopped worrying about those kids since they never listened.
2) I don’t think that what the neighbors did was right. I think that what the neighbors did wasn’t right. I think that even tho that child was a trouble maker, the neighbors should’ve cared about his death. If it was an adult than it would’ve been fine because adults know what’s good and what’s wrong but children don’t.
3) I think that Esperanza admires Alicia a lot. The text states “Is a good girl, my friend, studies all night and sees the mice.” This shows that Esperanza really admires Alicia.]]> 2017-10-24 20:13:25 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193487 Eli https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193596 1)I think they are annoyed of the Vargas kids because they are bad and they are trouble makers. According to the article they are bad kids and trouble makers because according to the text it states "the kids bend trees and bounced between cars and dangled upside down from knees and almost break like fancy museum vases you can't replace". This proofed that they are really immature and annoying which made people stopped carry but that's not a reason to don't care if they die.

2)' I believe they should care about his death because a person is a person you can't deny that even if their bad kids you still have to care.

3) Esperanza admires her because she is trying to be different and follow her dream currently. Lines that support my opinion is according to the article it states "is a good girl my friend, studies all night and sees the mice the ones her father says do not exist.is afraid of nothing except four legged fur and a father". This shows that she admires her because she works hard.

]]> 2017-10-24 20:13:52 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193596 Nora https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193659 1) i think that the other people in the neighborhood are annoyed by and dislike the Vargas children . i know this because in the text it says “ But after a while you get tired of being worried about kids that aren’t even yours ” . this shows that everybody just gave up caring for them .

2) no , it is not right to not mourn his death because he was “ bad “ . even though he was a “ bad “ kid doesn’t mean he shouldn’t be mourned for his death . he was just a child whom didn’t live his life feeling complete or even living half of his life . The fact that nobody cared is sad and the only reason behind this is that he was “ bad “.
3) Esperanza admires Alicia because she strives to be different from the average stereotypes for a woman . i know this because in the text it says “ Alicia , who inherited her mama’s rolling pin and sleepiness, is young and smart and studies for the first time at a university. Two trains and a bus, because she doesn’t want to spend her while life in a factory or behind a rolling pin “ . The way she describes Alicia so kindly and deeply shows me that she wants to do the same as her , and looks up to her .]]> 2017-10-24 20:14:04 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193659 Sofia https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193683 1.) I think that other people in the neighborhood feel irritated by the Vargas children. Evidence from the text, "House on mango street" , is " But after a while you get tired of being worried about kids who aren't even yours". This shows that after a while when you don't listen to others nobody will care any more.

2.) I believe that is someone was a trouble maker and or a good person that does not mean that is the bad one were to die you don't care because he was trouble maker. I think that a trouble maker is equal to a person who behaves good. Either way at the end of the day you are all sleeping and eating you are all alive.

3.) Esperanza admires Alicia because Esperanza wants be the type of women who goes to college and actually is something in this world. Esperanza doesn't a typical women who stays home and cooks food for everyone when they get home. Alivia shows this example because he dad wants her to stay home, make food, clean the house, and sleep early so she can wake up an make breakfast. But Alicia decides to go to sleep late, study, and goes to college at the same time. This shows why Esperanza admires Alicia.]]> 2017-10-24 20:14:11 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193683 https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193691 1) I believe that the neighborhood feels are annoyed, due to the fact that the v]]> 2017-10-24 20:14:12 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193691 Diana Rubalcava https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193778 1.) I believe that other people in the neighborhood feel like the Vargas kids are too much trouble and should not have to be dealt with anymore. I believe this this because in the text it said "but after a while you get tired of being worried about kids who aren't even yours". And that comes to show that after a bit of actually caring it just all gets to be to much and people just give up.

2.) I feel as if someone was a lot of trouble that does not take away from the fact they they are living people especially a kid. I don't see a difference between a "good" kid dying and a "bad" kid they are both human. And at the end of the day that's still someone's kid and they still meant something to someone. So instead of not caring they should have took it as a learning experience not just as a accident that happened.

3.) Esperanza admires Alicia because Alicia is working hard towards what she wants to be and not carrying about what others say about what she wants to be. I know this because in the ext it had said "is a good girl, my friend, studies all night And sees the mice". This part of the text shows that Esperanza admires Alicia because of how hard she works to do something other that she wants to do. ]]> 2017-10-24 20:14:28 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200193778 Diana Garcia https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200194012 1.)The way that people in the neighborhood feel about the Vargas is that theyare only troublemakers and that they give up on them because why get worried of kids who are not even yours. Evidence from the text that supports this, “But after a while you get tired of being worried about kids that are not even yours.”
2.)I think is not right to moot mourn his death just because he was a bad kid if you would it be in his mother position you wouldn’t like people being so mean and not feel nothing just because you’re kid was a trouble maker, and you would’ve crying so why do things to other when you don’t like other do it to you.
3.)Esperanza does really show the admiration to her friend, because she is working so hard to have a future even that she has a lot of things to get done. Evidence from the text that shows that Esperanza admires her friends is, “Is a good girl, my friend, studies all night and sees the mice, the ones his father says do not exist.” This clearly shows that Esperanza admires her friend.]]> 2017-10-24 20:15:10 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200194012 Xander https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200194185 1) I believe that the neighborhood feels annoyed, due to the fact that the Vargas children are repeating there same problems.

I believe that the neighborhood feels annoyed because Vargas kids are repeating the same problems. Evidence from the text that supports this,” But after a while you get tired of being worried about kids that aren’t even yours” This shows that everybody just gave up on caring them.

2.) I believe that if someone was a trouble maker or a good person that does not mean that you would not care about it. How did Angel Vargas died. According to the text it states” Efren chipped his buck tooth on a parking meter and didn’t even stop refugia from getting her head stuck between two salts in the back.” This shows how Angel Vargas died and no one did responsible about his dead and no one care.]]> 2017-10-24 20:17:07 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200194532 Xander https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200195477 2) it isn't right to not feel bad of a child's death because a child only had a couple of years already passed and it's very sad to have a child die in the age of a child. Additionally, comparing to a grown person, he or she has already experienced years and years of his or her life but a child's death is way to early for his or her life to end. Lastly, in the text, it stated the reaction of everyone which is "Nobody looked up not once the day Angel Vargas learned to fly and dropped from the sky like a sugar donut".]]> 2017-10-24 20:20:30 UTC https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200195477 Taj Brock-Questions 2 and 3 https://padlet.com/alexacarcova/mbwrqjgxv90l/wish/200196288 2. It is not right to not care about a "bad" kids death. So what if the kid was good or bad? IT IS A DEAD KID FALLING OUT OF A TREE! No wonder Cathy's moving out.
