In this section, Hà uses a lot of imagery to describe her family and life in Saigon. Use Padlet to create a mood/image board of pictures that represent Hà and Saigon. You can use pictures, videos, gifs etc...to express your ideas. In addition to images, you can post interesting information related to Hà , such as a guide to growing papayas in a container. You may work in partners, groups or individually. You may comment on one another’s posts.

I think this picture is good for this book because Ha say's her home is very pretty and this picture is what I imagined her home to be like.

A papaya tree on top of a hill just like Ha's.

eliseh24493 — 2017-04-19 23:33:29 UTC

I chose this picture because it meant a lot to her.

Papaya seeds. To think that big tree grew from this tiny seed

This is Bruce Lee, and the way Ha describes the way one of her brothers idea of Bruce Lee leads me to believe he idolizes him.

Papaya tree

This is the image that I had in my head when she said that she had a papaya tree and this also reminded me about when I was in Italy and rode a horse named Papaya.

This is a navy picture like the one of Hà's father. This picture is importent because it is what persuades one of her brothers to go. She also imagines him smiling even though he's looking serious.

Têt

the papaya seeds look so tiny.

North Vietnam

josephl24083 — 2017-04-20 21:19:14 UTC

This is North Vietnam, the place where ha's Mom grew up.

Papaya tree

palmerm24687 — 2017-04-20 21:35:03 UTC

I think that this tree is important to the story because it is important to Hà

Papaya seeds

palmerm24687 — 2017-04-20 21:40:30 UTC

These are the seeds of a papaya in the fruit which relates to Hà because the papaya tree is one thing that she is very fond of.

Papaya trees

isabelae24664 — 2017-04-20 23:13:46 UTC

I chose this picture because it represents Ha's papaya tree and how much it means to her. It also reminds me of when I was in Brazil and I ate Papaya cream.

Vietnamese Troops

jacks24451 — 2017-04-21 00:03:32 UTC

Ha

elenal24380 — 2017-04-21 01:05:43 UTC

Ha is hopeful and thinks everything is going to work out well even though it probably isn't.

Saigon

elenal24380 — 2017-04-21 01:06:56 UTC

Saigon is a disaster in the middle of a war. Just like this picture:

Ha and Saigon

elenal24380 — 2017-04-21 01:08:02 UTC

Ha and Saigon's relationship is like:

Papayas

elenal24380 — 2017-04-21 01:08:58 UTC

Papayas are fast growing shade trees, and they look really good, too.

Growing papaya from seed is the easiest and most successful way to get started. ...
To grow good papayas you need a frost free climate, lots of sunlight, lots of water and very good soil.
Papayas don't transplant well. ...
And that's it.

It's not anonymous it's Elena

Ha's Birthday wishes:
I wish I could do what boys do.
I wish I could let my hair grow.
I wish I had a sister.
I wish my father would come home so my mom would be happy. Just to see her lips curl up from the permanent frown on her face right now.

This is a Vietnamese girl

ekaterinac24361 — 2017-04-21 02:28:36 UTC

She reminds me of Ha

Ha and her friend

cameryns24431 — 2017-04-21 02:50:28 UTC

I chose this picture because this is where her friend left to and also shows where she lives. It was really sad for her when her friend left knowing she will probaly never see her again. I also chose this picture because it shows where her friend went to and how far it was so she was super sad.

Phone and soccer ball

eleanorh24603 — 2017-04-22 17:48:16 UTC

I would bring these things because if I got board I could play soccer and if i needed help my phone would help me.,

This is the rice crepe

Vietnamese child

charlottej24533 — 2017-05-04 01:13:10 UTC

When I saw this picture it immediately got me thinking about Ha.

2019-09-17 22:50:36 UTC

This reminds me of Ha and her Friend.

2022-11-30 14:27:56 UTC

This is Ha's friend leaving to go to a safer place.

Well This is a Great Story
