Golden Words (words I liked from the articles that I want to use in my post):

Visa, rehab, Grammy’s, United Kingdom

Lift a line (quotes from the articles that I want to use in my post):

“Unfortunately, her application for a visa to enter the United States of America has been rejected at this time by the American Embassy in London."

Big Ideas (major ideas from the article that I want to make sure I mention in my post):

• Amy Winehouse wasn’t allowed into the United States.

• She’s under investigation for possibly smoking crack.

• She’s nominated for six Grammy’s and was supposed to perform.

• She’s in rehab and not that upset about it.

Today’s Graphic Organizer

What I read	What I know	What I can infer
Amy Winehouse wasn’t allowed into the United States.	The U.S. let’s0 most people from England into the country because the UK’s an ally.	Winehouse must have done something bad.
She’s under investigation for possibly smoking crack.	Crack is Wack.	Winehouse must have some SERIOUS issues.
She’s nominated for six Grammy’s and was supposed to perform at the ceremony.	Grammy’s are prestigious awards. To get nominated for six in one year you have to be really talented.
She’s in rehab and not that upset about her rejection.	Rehab is a challenging and transformative experience.	Winehouse must realize that she has a problem and be committed to change.
