Pd.6 S. Torresson Found poem / paragraph

Umbrella that is red
Being singled out
Last thing I wanted

I sank in my chair
Praying
That everyone would go back
To what they were doing

Most did
Except for a tall boy
Who sat
Near the front

He held up a piece of paper
Notebook
With words on it
It read “Hi, I’m Eddie”

This is a really good section from the book to choose because of multiple reasons. One being that this was the first time that Lucia met / was introduced to Eddie. Eddie is showing empathy for Lucia because he is from a different country and because she is new. This also shows empathy because no one else was going to introduce themselves. It shows tolerance to, because he is tolerating a new kid to the class. This section show empathy because the class is not drawing attention to her. This show tolerance because Lucia is tolerating the teacher when the teacher singled her out. This is why the section is important.
