  1. American Born Chinese by: Gene Luen YangReader-response Purpose: Gives another cultures take on what Jing experienced. Audience: Multicultural Classroom Genre: Graphic Novel Engagement: Writing a graphic novel for a graphic novel gives students an idea of how the author was able to express themselves in this manner.

  2. My school is not very diverse. There are probably at max 7 students from any race other than Caucasian. I’m one of three Hispanics. My parents are from Puerto Rico, but to them we’re all Mexican. I like to speak Spanish with my friends but sometimes it looks like this: O-la K pa-sa? Haha Hey girl, comoestas ? Y tufamilia? Haha. Spikas Americano? Bien y us… Hahaha!

  3. It doesn’t feel very good when this happens, but it happens a lot. I know why it happens; they think we’re talking about them. We really aren’t sometimes it just feels good to speak Spanish. It feels like it connects us to our culture… Creoque… their making fun of us… They understand! Wouldn’t surprise me. Oh, good.

  4. My teacher gave me this book. Jin and I aren’t from the same culture but I think that in a way a person who feels singled out because of ignorance from any culture can relate to this book. Especially if English is their second language because it is an easy and quick read. It is also relatable to an immigrants situation through the character Wei-Chen.

  5. This scene has the greatest effect on me as a reader. I feel I went through a similar experience before when I was in eighth grade. We were talking about Puerto Rico and how they wanted to be an independent island. One of the boys in my class said Puerto Ricans are so dumb. I was so mad, but I couldn’t say anything because we were in class. The teacher just looked at me guiltily.
