Chapter 7 part 2
Hello Friends,
I apologize for not posting a question last night. Ms Howie was very busy, I know that is not a very good excuse! I don't know about you kids, but I think this book is getting very interesting. Plus, there are still more secrets to be revealed.
I wanted to get some feedback from my wise students. Do you think General Washington is going to listen to Geordie or not? Why? Also, what do you think Geordie's dad would do if he found out what Geordie had done? Predict if you think his dad is going to find out. How might he find out? There are lots of quesitons tonight. You don't have to answer all of them.
If you have any questions about the book feel free to post them. I can answer them, or your very intelligent classmates can answer your questions.
I'm looking forward to finishing Chapter 8 with you tomorrow. It gets even more exciting!
Have a goodnight and see you tomorrow!

Chapter 7
Hello Friends,
I apologize for the late post! My question for this chapter is an interesting one. When Eddie Owens made a comment about Aunt Cass on the bus Pat H. smacked him in his face. Why do you think Lars did not do anything to Eddie? If you were Lars what would you say to Eddie after that comment? Why? If you choose to say nothing to Eddie tell me why.
See you tomorrow. Remember to get your quiz signed for tomorrow!

Hello Friends,
Remember tomorrow is the Quiz! In Chapter 6's blog I would like for you to write a few essay questions that you would like to see on the quiz. Please make sure that they are not "yes" or "no" questions. The students have to be able to explain their answers! Thanks for checking in. I really like blogging with you!

Chapter 5
Hello Friends,
My question for chapter 5 is a tough one! How did Lars react to Aunt Cass's death? Why do you think he reacted this way? If you were Lar's character how might have you reacted differently?
Your blogs are fantastic! I love reading all your ideas!

Chapter 4
Hello Friends,
My blog question for chapter 4 is... If you could have a "shade" or an "apparition" (like Lar's) from any time period what time period would it be? Would it be a boy or a girl? Would you want someone your age or older? What would you want them to teach you about?
Remember there are no right or wrong answers, I just want to hear your wonderful ideas!
