Freedom Writers

3 texts:
1. Coach Carter by Jasmine Jones
2. Teach With Your Heart by Erin Gruwell
3. Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank

Statement:
I found this book to be very interesting and inspiring. As a future teacher, it was especially inspiring to see how powerful a teachers impact is on their students' lives. It was amazing to see how the students' changed (for the better) throughout their time with Miss G. She did an amazing job pointing the lives of her students in the right direction.

Question:
Where the Freedom Writers are now? After reading the epilogue, I found out a great deal about the Freedom Writers and how they continued to write. But that was written some time ago, where are they now? Are they still writing? Did some of them become teachers so they could change their students' lives like Miss G did for them?
