Recount Famous People Meg and Mel’s Intro


Meg @tod3 Hi, everyone! We are already on our second unit. I am super excited to read it! I have heard so much about this book already.


1:14 PM – 16 Sep


Mel @arz4 Replying to @meg


I’m excited too! Usually I prefer science fiction books, but I have seen that it has over 600 reviews on Amazon. It has so many 5 stars! It is a recount of her life.


Meg @tod3 Replying to @mel


I love reading recounts. They can be newspaper articles, diaries, biographies or memoirs. This is a memoir by Malala Yousafzai, who risked her life to go to school.

I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban by Malala Yousafzai


Meg @tod3 Replying to @mel


Wow, what an inspiration! I wonder what events led this to happen? I can’t believe she had to fight for education. I just take it for granted! I think this is going to be a real eye-opener. Let’s get reading!


Transfer of skills: Do you know what ‘education’ is in another language? Do you notice any similarities?
