Mrs. Belk's eighth grade language arts class has been reading a novel entitled, __The Glory Field__ by Walter Dean Myers. After each section in the novel they have created enrichment activities that correspond to each segment in the Lewis family saga.

Their work was so awesome, we decided to share it with the world.

We hope you will enjoy our work. Feel free to leave comments. We love to hear from our viewers.

Enrichment Activity 1900 Part 1: 2) Write a journal entry about a time when you had to show courage. A few months ago, my dad and I were at the YMCA when I received an unexpected call from my aunt. My aunt was very flustered on the phone because my grandfather was being sent to the hospital. My grandfather and grandmother are both retired so they keep my little brother and my little cousin. My aunt could not get in touch with anyone except me and we didn’t know where my brother or where my cousin were.  My father was in the locker room so I couldn’t go get him. I made the decision to go get one of the managers to go into the locker room to get my dad. Finally my dad came out and I told him what was going on. We immediately got into the car and drove to Thomasville Medical Center. We weren’t sure if they were there yet so I kept calling my grandma’s cell phone until someone answered.  In the end we met them at the hospital and took my brother and my cousin back to their house. My aunt was out of town and couldn’t come to get my cousin until that night. In the end my grandfather was okay, but had a cast on his hand. He was working outside when he split his hand wide open. Even though the situation turned out fine, I felt like it was up to me to fix everything.
