Extended Constructed Response-American Dream

Traditionally, when people talk about living the American dream, they are talking about starting with very little, and then through hard work, dedication, and scarifice, making a better life for themselves and the ones they love. Write a well-organized extended constructed response in which you take a position on the true possibility of living the American dream in contemporary America, supporting your position with appropriate evidence from the novella, The House on Mango Street, and at least one of the articles: "Malala Yousafzai: A Normal Yet Powerful Girl", "Healing 'Brick City': A Newark Doctor Returns Home", "Little Things Are Big", or "5 daughters of immigrants describe living 'Between Two Cultures.'"
