Some Final Thoughts on I Am Malala

Hi Everyone, 

Here are some final thoughts on I Am Malala




Our Book Rating: 4 out of 5 stars 


Student Reviews and Thoughts: 

Sam writes, "When I speak to a friend about Malala, I will tell them that knowledge is a very powerful part of your life. According to Malala, education helps you learn many important skills such as communications and living healthier. Without knowledge, your life would be more difficult as you would have a harder time making friends and you may make more mistakes in your work."


Shane writes, "If my friend asks me about Malala, I would respond to them: Malala is no ordinary girl, she is a brave, courageous, and intelligent person who stood up to the Taliban. She was shot by the Taliban, but she survives, and she is grateful for surviving the Taliban. Malala doesn't want education just for the girls in Pakistan; she wants education to help children around the world. She says education is important around the world, and it even gives us power. Malala is the bravest girl on Earth, and she won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014."

Danny writes, "The challenges Malala faced were being able to attend school and being shot by the Taliban. Malala was not afraid of the Taliban. Not only was she not afraid of the Taliban, she won the Nobel Peace Prize for helping girls get educated. She recovered in Birmingham, England, and she was supported by people all over the world."


Erin writes, "The word I described for Malala is intelligent. For starters, she is pretty smart for a teenager and she loves school. Her intelligence is undeniable because of the way she acts; she talks like a teacher, and she speaks with elegance. Her message is that children should have education. The reason why it is important is because everyone needs education in order to reach their goals and pursue their careers."


Stan writes, 
"I've written a paragraph about Malala. Malala was a brave person because she wasn't afraid of the Taliban. She wants to help children get an education. She is trying to get the government to help the people in Pakistan by getting children an education. Most people are afraid of the Taliban because they are dangerous, but to Malala they don't look that dangerous because she is not afraid of them. They threaten people and make people obey their rules. Malala is brave to stand up against them."

Chris writes, "The one word I chose to describe Malala is strong. This is because she didn't cry and weep when she talked to her father on the phone after she was shot in the head. She was all alone in the hospital in Birmingham, England. She was happy to be alive in spite of being shot. Malala still speaks out about the education of children and women, even though the Taliban tried to kill her."


Linus writes, "Malala is a girl who used to live in Pakistan. She had a baby brother. Her father ran a school. She liked reading with her brother. She liked to visit with her grandparents. A challenge she faced was the Taliban who didn’t want girls to go to school."
