Help!,I need 10 items that relate to the book Scorpions by Walter Dean Myers, they have to fit in a shoe box?
I haven't read this book yet, though I have a copy. I did, however, look on Amazon.com to see what the book was about and feel I could come up with at least some of the items you might include.





Thing is, be careful. Seriously. I don't know what your school's policy might be, but since this book has much to do with gangs and all that entails, I'd think you'd include some weopons and/or drug props - but due to safety, bringing a "toy" gun to school could be a problem.





Gang symbol? Probably want something to represent his brother, jail and lack of money. What about something to show all the different things pulling on Jamal? Maybe a coin you have to flip to make the decision about joining or not joining? A rubberband? Yes, I'm thinking metaphorically.





How can you "show" the setting? Can you create a fake mugshot? Something to represent the "system" his brother is part of?





Without reading it, I know I'm not the best help. I checked out some of the 146 reviews on Amazon to get an idea about the story and characters. I've liked other titles by this author, so perhaps this is my cue to read on.

Step away from the computer,


I said STEP AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER,





pick up the BOOK, OPEN it and READ.





The teacher is asking for your answer, not ours.
