2. What line had the most impact on you? Why?
3. Do you agree or disagree with the message?

You've got to be taught to hate and fear
You've got to be taught from year to year
It's got to be drummed in your dear little ear
You've got to be carefully taught

You've got to be taught to be afraid
Of people whose eyes are oddly made
And people whose skin is a different shade
You've got to be carefully taught

You've got to be taught before it's too late
Before you are six or seven or eight
To hate all the people your relatives hate
You've got to be carefully taught
You've got to be carefully taught

What do you think the author wants you to learn?

brandon robinson
11/2/2015 07:18:23 am

you have to learn before you can understand you have got to be carefully taught because if you are not taught then you will not know how to do anything I Agree with this message

Mrs. Hemler
11/2/2015 07:24:26 am

I'm not sure what you mean. You did not use any punctuation, so I don't quite understand your thinking. Can you please clarify your explanation?

P.DUBS
11/2/2015 07:18:47 am

I think the author is trying to say always listen too are parents.And kids have to be scared of some people and.And you're got to be taught to hate and fear.And I agree.

Mrs. Hemler
11/2/2015 10:42:22 am

So, do you think it is important and necessary for parents to teach their children to hate and fear?

Lemarr
11/2/2015 07:19:02 am

1. You have to be taught a lot of things
2. 3 paragraph 1st and 2nd sentence. Because it was inspiring
3. I agree

1. We are all people 2. You`ve got to be afraid of people whose eyes are oddly made becuase its like saying stay away from people how dose not look right. 3. i agree

Mrs. Hemler
11/2/2015 10:44:27 am

So, do you think you should stay away from people who don't look right to you? Is it appropriate for us to judge people based on their looks?

a.t.

Kailah Shorter
11/2/2015 07:26:06 am

1. To be carefully taught
2. "To hate the people your relatives hate", because it's telling you to stick with your family.
3. Yes, because it is telling us how to be taught and how to learn for yourself and not others.

TT
11/2/2015 07:26:34 am

The line that had the most impact on me was the second paragraph because it makes me think about how people can be judge.

makayla
11/2/2015 07:27:09 am

1.You have to be taught and learn
2.the line that most impact me is when it said you have to you have to be taught before you are six or seven or eight because you need to be taught before you that age
3.yes

jyaer .L
11/2/2015 10:14:54 am

i agree with that

sa'Nyah james
11/2/2015 07:27:16 am

I think what the author is trying to say is some kids or people are taught to be afraid of people that are a different race
the line that had the most impact on me was the line that said be afraid of people of a different race

w.p.
11/2/2015 07:27:26 am

I think the author is trying to share that kids have to be taught how to do things carefully.''to hate all the people your relatives hate'' had the most impact on me because why should you hate a person just because your family hate them.I agree with this you have to be taught to do things.

sherry smith
11/2/2015 07:28:16 am









That you have to be taught be for you get older.none of these had impact on me .Yes I i agree with this because its ture











jf
11/2/2015 07:31:58 am

I think that the author is trying to say that kids should be taught carefully. To hate all the people your relatives hate had the most impact to me because why should you hate somebody because your people do. and i agree

Nigel J

1.That u have to be afraid of things in your life.
2.You got to be taught to hate and fear. Because I never knew people told people they had to be scared of things.
3. I disagree because a person can't tell another person what to be afraid of.

Simone C.
11/2/2015 10:06:24 am

1. I think this poem was saying you have to do what your family does.
2. "To hate all the people you relatives hate" I don't think that's true at all, just because a relative hates a person doesn't mean you have to hate that person too.
3. I agree on the poem, you do have to be taught, but some of the examples in this poem isn't things I would want to be taught or teach another person.

Simone C.
11/2/2015 10:12:51 am

3. I disagree, you do have to be taught but you don't have to be taught to hate people, and be scared.

Adrinae J
11/2/2015 10:07:27 am

1. I think the author is saying people these days are thinking they know everything but they don't and they have to be taught that.
2.The second line impacted me because you learn things everyday but you have to remember them all throughout the years.
3.I do agree that you have to be carefully taught.

Da'Quan M.
11/2/2015 10:07:40 am

1.That you should know right from wrong and that most people that you think you should hate,you should really have more knowledge about them.2.Paragraph 2 line 3,because most people have stereotypes about different races and that's not right.3.I mostly agree with this message.

Danyell

1. I think the author is trying to say be careful when you judge people.
2. You got to be taught fear, because the summery on the back of the said the boy thought war was a game and he was not taught to be scared of war.
3. I agree with the message.

Letitia.S
11/2/2015 10:11:46 am

1.I think the author is trying to prepare people and teach people to understand.
2.The part when they said,"people whose skin is different shade".It took a impact on me because people get judged on there skin color.
3.I agree with the poem because everything in the poem is reflecting on a lot of people and people should be prepared.

1.I think the author tells us to be taught about people who are different
2.You've got to be taught before it's to late before your six,seven or eight because those are such young age.
3.I agree because people should know if a different person came up
to them to not judge them because they should know there different.

2."To hate all the people your relatives hate"

Danyell
11/2/2015 01:26:54 pm

I like what u had wrote about thestuff

Daina B.
11/3/2015 04:49:15 am

2. ''To hate all the people your relatives hate'' because I don't think anybody should hate any one and you don't have to be like your relatives you can change things
3. Yes I agree that you should be carefully taught but certain parts of the poem such as ''You've got to be taught to hate and fear" I do not agree with.

Adriana.S
11/2/2015 10:16:08 am

1.I think what the aurthor is trying to say is that 9you have to fear and hate many things in life while you get older.

2. What impaced me was when nit said you have to be tought before it's to late because if you get to old in life and you end up on the streets not knowing what to do.

3. Yes I agree with the messege

Christiona gn
11/2/2015 10:16:28 am

2.the line that had the most impact on me was and people whose skin is diffrent shade because that's racism and being racis is A bad thing.
3.no I do not agree with the message.

Monique Liles A
11/2/2015 10:20:27 am

1.I think the message is trying to say is that you should be carefully taught what you believe in not what someone els does and to not take it in a different way that there trying to put it.

2."You got to be carefully taught" I chose you got to because I never understand what anyone is saying because they never carefully teach me so I don't understand.

3.Yes,because you should know what there trying to say that's why there trying to carefully teach you so you can understand them.

Tt
11/2/2015 06:51:43 pm

Danyell
11/3/2015 06:34:24 am

I think that the people should be taught something new.2Ithink people shouldn't hate them if they do something wrong. 3 I agree with this message that the author when he had rought the poem.

kailah
11/4/2015 05:33:25 pm

I think the poem is telling us to learn for yourself and learn to love one another and stick together. This is my final thought.
