Create a cohesive (together) paragraph using these 3 questions:
1. Why did the ancestors begin the lottery?
2. Why has it died out in other villages?
3. What point was the author trying to make in this story? (What is the moral?)
These are based on your opinion. You need to also GIVE FACTS FROM THE STORY to support your opinion.

Your job is to respond to at least 2 students. When you respond, you should refer to (talk about) their questions, and their opinion.If someone responds to you, you should respond to them!
