Today you read the short story, A Letter from the Fringe by Joan Bauer.  You have one question to answer. Be sure to fully answer the question.


1. If you had been Dana how would you have handled the situation when the school bullies made fun of Sally for eating cookies? Why do you think this would have worked better? Use information from the story to support you answer.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO:

1. Write a sentence that explains a little about what led up to this situation and tells how the person handled it.

2. Write a sentence that tells whether you would have handled the situation the same way or differently.

3. If you would handle the situation the same way, write a sentence explaining why

OR

If you would handle the situation differently, write one or two sentences explaining why not, and tell what you would do instead.

  1. Here is how I would've handled the situation when Booker bullied Sally. Booker called her fat and said she needed to lose weight. If I had been there I would have handled the problem a different way because she is my friend and I would not have let anyone bully her. I would have said to stop and I would literally "cracked" on him. Then I would keep on going until he walked away and left the situation.-Antonio V.

  2. So there Sally was, just eating a cookie. She wasn't doing anything wrong. But Booker had to to be mean and hateful and call her fat. So what if she's a little big? She's not hurting anyone, is she? If that was me, I wouldn't have that mess. I would tell him to get off my back and to get out of my way because the stench of his cruelty is too much. Then I would walk away. -PM

  3. Dugg is a bully who has no soul or heart Dugg was bullying a girl named Sally and her friend from Dugg they handled the situation by walking away.
    If i were Danna i would would snuff Dugg in his mouth beacause he has no right to make fun of people.
    Dana's way of stoping bullying is horrid because walking away shows fear

  4. If I was Dana I would have told them to shut up and had more cookies and shoved one of them down their throat. I would of done that because i hate it when people have to make a comment that is not necessary it bugs me so bad.

  5. If I was dana and those boys were picking on I would have handled the situation much differently. I would have took one of those cookies and hit them in the head with it. If they wanted to come up and talk more junk I would have punched them in the face.

  7. If I was dana i would just say " ya your right i'm fat" And then eat more cookies. And if they kept saying it i would first smack them then i would ignore them if they kept saying it. Anandah H.

  8. Here is how I would have handled the situation when the school bullies made fun of sally for eating the cookies. This is what I would had done. when they came here I would had just not pay attention to them and walk away. I handled the the situation differently because not listening to them is better then getting into a fight.

  9. If were up to me I would handle this situation more mature. I would stick up for my friends mostly sally. I feel really bad for her people thought she was fat because she was holding a cookie bag. When people would mess with her I would tell them to leave her alone and then smack them. Im a very protective person I STAND UP FOR WHATS RIGHT!!!=)BRITT-MExicAna
