lit circle #2 (Zhanpole)

we finally finished our second literature circle meeting today it was fun. All of my group members finished their discussion sheet on time, our discussion went well. for homework Mrs. Narsiman told us to answer a question that she gave to us, and post it in our blogs. this question has to do something with a new important character, this character was introduced in this book at the end of chapter 4 when Henry and Will finds him. In this book his name is Zhanpole known as Beanpole. Mrs Narsimans question was " How will Beanpole help Will and Henry on their journey to the White Mountains?" Now i am going to answer that

There are some ways how Beanpole can help Will and Henry on their journey to the White Mountains. first, Beanpole is a smart boy, so if they get stuck in any problem Beanpole can help them solve it. I know that Beanpole is a smart boy because in the story he thought himself how to speak English by just using a old book he found. Second Beanpole can invent stuff, if beanpole can invent machines he can us them to help Will and Henry on their journey, like he can make a torch light so that they can see in the dark. I know Beanpole can invent stuff because in the book it said, "Lately, he had been more and more uneasy about the prospect of being Capped, rightly guessing that it would put an end to his inventing things". Beanpole can also help them on Will and Henry on their journey because Beanpole knows more about the place than them

lit discussion 1


Today we had our first lit circle on the book white Mountains by John Christopher it was fun! The main character of this book is Will To get ready for this lit circle we had to read the first two chapters and finish the discussion sheet. We got to know who is in our group today, in my group there is Nikita, Teah and Petra i am the only boy in my group. My teacher, Mrs. Narsiman told us to answer a question and that question is "How is Will just like you?" so now i am going to answer it

first of all Will is a very sneaky and stubborn boy just like how i am. I never listen to my mom, whenever i go out with my friends i always bring the camera with me. Once my mom found out that i steal the camera that she got so mad at me, but i still do it. i am just like Will because he is not allowed to touch his dads watch, but he still takes it without the dads permission. i am very sneaky like Will. When i was smaller i used to sneak out of the house to play with my friends, just like Will how he sneaks out of the house to the White mountain.
