Topics for classroom discussion and assignments:

  • Madeleine L’Engle talks about the difference between what is expected of us and what we actually do. Write an essay about what is expected of you by your family and friends — and whether or not you live up to those expectations. 

  • Madeleine L’Engle says that our environmental problems are caused by greed and carelessness.  List the cause and effects of environmental carelessness. Then research what can be done to halt or stop these problems. This can be the start of an Earth Day project.

  • Madeleine says "read for fun!" What do you like to do for fun? Write about it!
