Boy in the Striped PJs

In chapter 6, Bruno asks a tough question (without meaning to) to Maria. He says, " I'm only saying what I feel. I'm allowed to do that, aren't I?" Later he says again,"I'm not allowed to say what I feel?" Poor naive Bruno. He doesn't know what is going on beyond outside his little Bruno world. I wonder if some Jewish kids were as clueless as Bruno was. What would be their point of view? How would they see the concentration camps?.....  This quote also shows how serious it was to try to: 1. Show kindess to your maid, and 2. Have a conversation about the war. I'm so glad I don't live in those times.

The Boy in the Striped PJs - a noticing

In chapter 5, Bruno asks Father who the people outside his window are, with the response of, "Soldiers, Bruno. And secretaries....." Then Bruno says, " No, not them. The people I see from my window." And then Father's response, "Ah, those people, those people......well, they're not people at all, Bruno."  This quote shows who Father really is - not the stern, serious father (as Bruno sees him), but an evil MONSTER who is obviously a Nazi. He just told Bruno that Jews aren't people! I have only read 5 chapters of this book, and so far, Father has not impressed me.

Educreations

This is a link to my educreations video on dividing fractions and whole numbers.  These videos are useful because whenever I learn a new concept that I know I will forget, I make a video on it.  Also these videos help me learn concepts more deeply when I make a video because every time I mess up on a video, I have to do it over and re-think the process.  But the best part about making this specific video was naming MY academy (and finding the perfect cookie.)

Chapter 15 Summary

Chapter 15 - Deeper Magic From Before The Dawn of Time

Aslan has just been killed, and Susan and Lucy come out of their hiding place in shock. They take off his muzzle and untie him (with the help of field mice.) As they walk to stay warm, they notice Aslan's body is missing and there is a crack in the Stone Table. Horrified, they look around, see Aslan, and are suddenly overjoyed, asking him  questions and playing a chase game with him as he regains strength. Afterward, Aslan takes them to the Witch's Castle to rescue the frozen statues.

This is Beethoven's 5th Symphony 
I believe this song goes with the chapter because it starts off scary, then calms down and sounds nice, then gets scary again, just like the chapter. But only listen to first couple minutes or you get carried away.

FYI, the last scary part was in the Witch's Castle

Ender's Game

               
"Hey Third, we're talkin' to you. Third, hey bugger-lover, we're talkin' to you."

         

 

  Ender's Game, by Orson Scott Card, is about a boy named Ender and his life as a child. He has an older sister named Violet and brother named Peter who are his best friend (Violet) and worst enemy (Peter). When he turns 6, he is recruited for Battle School (which is a place for training children to fight buggers) and is a super genius. As he gets older, he gets stronger and is promoted to Commander school after years of training and has a final battle with the buggers, but for those who want to read this book, I won't spoil the ending.

 

This is a front cover of Ender's Game

 

 

This book is for all those children who have wide imaginations and who like books placed in the future.

 
          This is a link to what song I think this book relates to. (Radioactive, by Imagine Dragons.)
I think this songs best relates to Ender's Game because the book has a lot of tech. in it, and this song

reminds me of what Ender was thinking when he was in his battles and when he won.
