Gallo.  The first story we read is also called "First Crossing" and is about the experience of a Mexican teen coming to the US to work. We will be reading a story every two days and comparing our lives to the lives of the immigrants, we will then culminate the community read with the "Immigration Experience" planned for June 7th.  A wonderful way to end the year! Homework: READ!!!!! and Journal #45
