After reading the first five letters of The Color Purple, reflect on your thoughts and emotions as you experienced Celie’s early voice and struggles.

 You can already tell Celie's is going through so much pain . You can hear it in her voice. To me it's crazy how people still do those things in this generation and it's honestly disgusting . I can't imagine the feeling and her mindset when she get raped by her own father. You can tell she is maturing and she sees things a type of way . The way she had to hide it from her mom and try to avoid it by the baby getting killed is crazy . She is such a young little girl. Today we worked on writing down notes about the book and starting to read it. Today I learned how awful things must have been back in the 1900s for women and race .

Describe a hike, long walk, or outdoor experience you have had and explain what it was like physically and mentally. If you have never been on a hike, describe a time when you were outside your comfort zone or had to rely on yourself in a challenging situation. Explain what you learned from the experience.

  I remember when I had went to go walk up stone mountain and let me tell you it was a lot . It was back then when I wouldn't work out omg I wasn't even half  way and wanted to quit and go back down . A lot went through my head . But in the end I felt good once I reached the top the air blowing on my face and body felt good . Today we are working on reading an article and answering questions . I learned I need to study and stay focus.

Pretend you are writing a blog entry as Celie; the moment you uncover the hidden letters. Describe what you would think, say, and do, and how this discovery would reshape how you see Mister and yourself. Reflect on why this moment would matter so much and how it would change your next choices.

  I would feel betrayed , I wouldn't even know how to react at his face or even be able to .  I would think he ain't as good of a person or sort of kind heart  as he seems to be . I would stand up and confront him about it . I wouldn't stay quiet no more I would do more actions then sit and act like nothing . The way I would see it as is I wouldn't be with a person who is a lier and a person on whom I can't trust due to him hiding things from me .  Today we worked on our assignment and our homework and read 61-65 and 66-70 letters of the book . Today I learned you can't always take someone's word for granted and always trust your gut and once you leave that space don't look back .

These letters show how Celie learns from the people around her, even in small ways. Think of someone in your life who influences you in a positive, everyday way—a friend, relative, teacher, or teammate. Write about what you’ve learned from them and how their influence shows up in your daily life.

 A friend who I am very grateful . He has taught me so much especially the way I was and my ways of doing things . I see him in daily life because what he taught me I think twice before making a decision. I have learned how to be brave and be able to communicate , be straight forward with people , and how to not lie about things and be responsible for my things. He has influenced me so much to not only think about myself ,but others also and how my decisions can hurt or affect  others. Today we worked on reading the book . I learned that we need to be responsible for things because otherwise if we don't  do things right we can get consequences.
