Wednesday May 5th 2010:

- Attendance
- Reading Chapter Six
- Chapter Six Questions: Answer the following questions in groups of three on lined paper, be sure that you put your names on the piece of paper.


1. Benjamin goes to write this document at the end of Chapter 5, what is he writing and what does he stop to buy on his way home? (2 marks)


2. On page 49 Benjamin feels relieved; he is able to take a long rest why? (1 mark)

4. What did Benjamin do while he waited to hear back from the printers? (2 marks)

5. What is the point of the afterword? Look up what an afterword of a story is. (2 marks)



Once you have complete these questions as a group I would like for you to work independently to complete various items that you have yet to complete. Most of you need to complete the Vocabulary sentences exercise using the ten words you were just tested on in ten separate sentences.


Also you must complete your chapter four summary.


As well you may need to finish your questions from Chapter Five from yesterday.


If you have complete EVERYTHING I would like for you to put your lap top away and continue with your self-selected reading.
