If you were absent:
Create a 20-line two-voice poem. To do this, read pages 113-116 in the
book and pick 2 characters from Melinda's family. Then take a sheet of
paper and fold it in half hotdog style. You should have two columns.
Write the name of each character at the top of the column. Now write a
poem in which the two characters in Melinda's family talk about the
conflict between them that you see in the scene you read. For an
