Ambush

 We read a story Named Ambush. We talked about the author and a brief story summary before we read. It was about a man who was in a war and his young daughter asked him if he had killed someone before. He lied and told her no because she wouldn't understand why just yet. He then explained the story of how he murdered the man and believed he was wrong for it. After that we started on our questions and that's all.

We also thought of a few themes for the poem, one of the themes I put was that you should listen to your mind over your heart. For the activity we also drew pictures, colors, and words from the text.
