songs about slavery

They would always sing songs to keep them happy and to give them hope that they will escape one day

must do questions

Why does Robyn think they are the only people ever to have gone into Hell? The hermit and her friends

Why do you think the valley is called Hell? because it is very hard to get to and it is very steep

Why must the teenagers seem like visitors from hell to the wild things living in the clearing? How is this ironic? because no one ever goes there

What picture of Kevin do we get in this chapter? that he is nervous and he hates insects

What does Ellie liken Fi to? She has never had two minute noodles

Do you think this is a fair assessment of her character. Use examples from the text to support your thinking
At times Ellie switches her narration from retelling the story to commenting about her life in the present - why do you think the author has chosen to write in this style? I think the reason that she is changing the story is because she has been in this situation before

what makes a good mathematician

A good mathematician is someone that is able to concentrate and go through the maths question 

Must do Questions ch1

Tomorrow, When The War Began - Chapter 1

What are the advantages and disadvantages of first person narration? Because she lived the experience. and the
disadvantage she could've forgot about the past events

Why do you think Ellie needs to tell the story in chronological order? so the reader knows the correct order the story goes in.

Pick one interesting word from the chapter, find its meaning, and explain why it is interesting. Hermit, A person living in solitude as a religious discipline. It is interesting because i have never herd of it before.

John Marsden foreshadows several events and characters in this chapter. Make three predictions based on the evidence in the text about what may occur later in the story. 1. A war might start or they might get lost 3. something bad or unexpected could happen.

What kind of story do you think Ellie is going to tell? Uses evidence from the text to support your answers.I think that the story is fictional because the places aren't real/imaginary.

What set of skills do these characters have that convince their parents that they can ‘go bush’ independently. Find examples for three characters. 

Must do questions

Must Do Questions: 

How did the group of teenagers ascend Tailors Stitch? A land rover

What are the two special events happening the day after the teenagers

leave for the bush? conmen day and Kevin's concert

How many days were they planning on staying? How much food do you

think is reasonable to bring, split between 7 teenagers? a lot because

they are going for two weeks

Who is the Hermit and what is he supposed to have done? he used to

live in the bushes and murder people

Do you think the Hermit will be significant to this story? Why/Why not?

yes and no, the reason yes is because he is a murderer and no because
it is mainly about the teenagers in the bush

Is their decent down Satan’s Steps into Hell dangerous? Discuss what

are the dangers, how could they have made it safer, what would you

have done? yes and I would of made them go one by one and the

dangers are that they could of slipped and die and maybe the hermit

maybe starvation

Predict what the bridge signifies That it leads into the hermits territory

what is a metaphor and a simile

In your own words, write a metaphor. A tree waved at us as we were driving by.

In your own words, write a simile. The lion roared as loud as a plane fly by

what is a growth mindset

Today I am learning to define what a growth mindset is 

What does it mean to have a  growth mindset.
A growth mindset  is that if you have a positive attitude that you will believe that you can do anything like if you have a test and you fail it you would ask the teacher if you can reset the test and try it again and try and get a better score than you got last time.
