Agenda 10-8

Activities:

* Discuss problem solving #3
* Timed writing, journal #2:

Reflect on the following quote:
"I had watched the whole scene without moving. I kept quiet. In fact I was thinking of how to get farther away so that I would not be hit myself. What is more, any anger I felt at that moment was directed, not against the Kapo, but against my father. I was angry at him, for not knowing how to avoid Idek's outbreak. That is what concentration camp life had made of me" (Wiesel).

Paragraph 1: Write about a time when you have misplaced your anger. Who were you really mad at? What would you do differently if you could go back to that situation?
