Also, when Grant is talking about being a man he states, "Within the next few weeks, maybe a month, whatever the law allows make him a man. Exactly what I'm trying to do here with you now: to make you responsible men and young ladies". Grant may think by juxtaposing the students and Jefferson it will make them more motivated to be smart men and women.]]> 2020-10-13 16:11:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mcrawley3/xqy7v1e2yxdsjzek/wish/825512914 https://padlet.com/mcrawley3/xqy7v1e2yxdsjzek/wish/825516573 Making Jefferson a man before he dies is very important because they want to prove that Jefferson is not an animal. He must die with some dignity. He is a man, just like everybody else. He is capable of success, despite what others say.   ]]> 2020-10-13 16:11:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mcrawley3/xqy7v1e2yxdsjzek/wish/825516573 https://padlet.com/mcrawley3/xqy7v1e2yxdsjzek/wish/825529138 Grant tells the children because he wants to make them aware. He was in a bad mood and he took it out on the children. He wants them to know he is under a lot of pressure and although it does not justify his actions, it provides a reason. He connects it to the children he teaches by explaining that he has the same goal with them, "to make you responsible young men and young ladies."]]> 2020-10-13 16:14:26 UTC https://padlet.com/mcrawley3/xqy7v1e2yxdsjzek/wish/825529138 https://padlet.com/mcrawley3/xqy7v1e2yxdsjzek/wish/825530549 Grant is "stuck" on page 34 because he has very limited space to teach the kids, he barely has chalk, plus he windows for air. He knows what each kids going to say for the bible, he wants to teach the kids does not care if they say the same thing every time and knows there is no point in teaching them. "So each day I listened for a moment, then turned it off and planned the rest of the day."(34)
"My classroom was the church.... my students' desks were the benches upon which their parents and grandparents sat during the church meeting."]]> 2020-10-13 16:14:44 UTC https://padlet.com/mcrawley3/xqy7v1e2yxdsjzek/wish/825530549 madelinedoherty https://padlet.com/mcrawley3/xqy7v1e2yxdsjzek/wish/825532095 Grant means when he says "You used enough of that chalk for five times that many problems," he means he is trying to ration the supplies so they won't run out of chalk that they gave his class. If they do run out of chalk that means he has to use his own money to buy the students more supplies.]]> 2020-10-13 16:15:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mcrawley3/xqy7v1e2yxdsjzek/wish/825532095 https://padlet.com/mcrawley3/xqy7v1e2yxdsjzek/wish/825533382 "To show too much intelligence would have been an insult to them. To show a lack of intelligence would be a greater insult to me."

Making Grant wait shows that they're better than him because they can manipulate his time however they see fit.]]> 2020-10-13 16:15:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mcrawley3/xqy7v1e2yxdsjzek/wish/825533382 https://padlet.com/mcrawley3/xqy7v1e2yxdsjzek/wish/825546455 Grant is telling the children to accept their place in society because it is not going to get better. They are not given much, but they have to accept it with their subservient role in society. The chalk is a symbol of the little that they are given, and how they are taught to accept it. Although it is never enough, there's nothing they can do to change it. ]]> 2020-10-13 16:18:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mcrawley3/xqy7v1e2yxdsjzek/wish/825546455 https://padlet.com/mcrawley3/xqy7v1e2yxdsjzek/wish/825570431 Keria Griffin Olivia 

By telling the kids the situation that Jefferson is in he hoped that they would take school and their lesson more seriously. Currently Ms Emma is trying to convince Grant to teach Jefferson so “he can die a man not a hog”, Grant doesn't want the children to grow up to be “hogs” and ever to die as one so he urges them to pay attention to what they’re learning and to take school serious instead of “ playing  with bugs. You
refuse to study your arithmetic, and you prefer writing
 slanted sentences instead of straight ones”.]]> 2020-10-13 16:23:02 UTC https://padlet.com/mcrawley3/xqy7v1e2yxdsjzek/wish/825570431
