    Entry Title: Timed Quick Write
    • DIRECTIONS
      Using the TREES essay structure, write a single paragraph essay in which you describe a challenge Ha and her family face on their way to America.

    SAMPLE ESSAY
         In the novel Inside Out and Back by Thanhha Lai, Ha and her family have to suffer harsh conditions.  This is because they are trying to get to the United States on an overcrowded ship.  Ha's family had to overcome the embarrassment of Brother Khoi's dead chick because it smelled so bad.  Ha notes, Neighbors complain... saying it's bad enough/ being trapped/ in putrid, hot air... must everybody/ also endure/ something rotten?  This proves the family had to suffer harsh conditions because people knew brother Khoi smelled because of his dead chick.  Being a family of refugees isn't easy.
