    The movie and the book are alike and different. One of the biggest reasons that they are the same is that in both the video and the text the setting is on the planet Venus. Another similarity is that in both the sun comes out for only one hour. One big difference between the two is that in the book, the children didn’t give Margot flowers at the end, but they did in the movie. Another difference is that in the video, the rain had not stopped for nine years, but in the short story, it had not stopped for 7 years. Finally, a reason that they are different is that Margot was not as shy in the movie as she was in the book. These are 5 ways that the movie and the text are…

    Have you ever felt like you are were alone, and nobody is listening to what you have to say? These are the feelings Margot was expressing. She was in a classroom, having a happy day about to see the sun, and then she was turned on, trapped in a closet. The short story and movie, “All Summer in a Day,” by Ray Bradbury and Ed Kaplan is a story of a child, living on Venus, named Margot that wishes she would see the sun again. Every seven/nine years it would come out, and Margot wasn't able to experience it, since she was trapped inside the closet. This was because Will was jealous of how she was able to see it when she was very little. Both stories are made off of the same idea, but are drastically different. Yes, there may be some similarities, but you see that there are plenty of differences. This is shown from all of the extra footage Ed Kaplan needed to add in. Such as in the ending, when it doesn't just show Margot leaving the closet like in the short story, but all of the kids feel so bad they gave her the flowers that they grabbed.…

    Have you ever heard stories on the internet or the news of people getting shot or being hurt by bullying? In the story “All Summer in a Day” by Ray Bradbury and in “Harrison Bergeron” by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. people are getting hurt two different ways, but in the act of jealousy. In “All Summer in a Day”, a girl name Margot (on Venus) knows more about the sun than the other children, yet, instead of the other children wanting to know more and hearing her out, they put her in a closet. And in “Harrison Bergeron”, there’s a handicap general who forces everyone to wear some kind of tech/gear to hide their strengths. People can be easily manipulated to go one way or the other, for people may know more, seen more, or have more than them and treat them…

    Many children use descriptive language and comparisons to express themselves through stories and daily speech. The protagonist in Ray Bradbury’s short story “All Summer in a Day”, Margot, uses figurative language such as similes to depict the sun. She does so in an attempt to prove to other children that she has in fact seen the sun and experienced its life-giving warmth. Unfortunately, the attempt was in vain. Throughout the story, the author utilizes similes to develop vivid imagery of the setting.…

    Ms. Rossing one of many lesson, “what happens when we communicate effectively” (Seider, 2012, p. 199)? Many times, children tend to be bullied and they become bullies as well, yet on this text it took a strong individual with great moral, civic, and performance character, to see what could be changed to make the playground more friendly. Another occasion I would read this book would be to a student, or students that were displaying bully tenancies to see, that they need to be nice, so that they may be included in the peer interaction. Many times, we as educators tend to think a situation with the students is resolved by speaking to the parents, yet with children as young as my preschoolers, I work with it can be resolved or address by reading them books. When you allow the children to see where and how they are acting toward their peers, it makes a connection where they can point out where the concern is. Ms. Rossing said, “what are we going to do to fix the problem” (Seider, 2012, p.…

    In the short story story “All Summer In A Day” By:Ray Bradvery, One theme that had a compelling connection to the short story in my opinion, Was that regret is the consequence of bad choices. This theme is shown in the text over the entire short story. Margot is a girl who is very frail and does not like to get in anyone's way. But that's what i think the boys don't like which fills them with erge, anger, and cruelty. The things that they do might not really affect them in that moment of time, and they might think it won't matter but then in the future regret is the consequence of the bad choices that you made. All that the innocent little girl wanted to see was the bright sun which is a rare occasion but when the boys put her in the closet…
