Arpreet's Week 6: Class Act

You watch one suffering in a book and you feel better. This is called CATHARSIS.
Honestly, I think that this idea is not present because usually when I see one suffering either in a book or in real life, I feel their pain and I wish I could just go and help them. Many people do believe in this idea but I understand how it is possible though.

Arpreet's Week 6: Snippet

This week's snippet is on page 328- 329. The last panel seems to be very different compared to the ones before that because the faces of Reza and Marjane seem to be shaded half white and the half black. When the characters are coloured half white and half black, I believe that this means that Marjane is conflicted with a problem. This panel also shows that this religious project has broughten Marjane and her husband back together because they had to put many of their conflicts behind them to finish this project.
Religion enables Marjane to explore more due to her being Muslim and also doing this project was done because Marjane has had enough of the bickering and she has had just about enough of it.

Arpreet's Class Act: Week 5

I learnt, with my conference with Mr. McGuigan, that spending your time wisely during class and at home is evident for doing well in school.
