Students,
Nice job answering our first post. I hope everyone can get on now ans is more comfortable with blogging.
What are some of the most vivid, interesting, funny or sad descriptions in the book so far? Why do these descriptions stand out?
In chapter 5 Bud and his mother discuss doors opening and closing. How does this metaphor relate to Bud?
How does Bud use his list of rules to help him through difficult situations?
This metaphor relates to Bud because when something goes wrong a new door will open to start again

I think Bud's lists of rules help him through difficult times because They are calles Bud Caldwell's rules and things to have a funner life and make a better lier of yourself.

Kaitlyn,
ReplyDeleteI like your answer to question 1!
-Brianna
Question #1: I think that the sad part was when they locked Bud in the shed. I don't think that they really had to because there was no reason.
ReplyDelete-Brianna
Question #2: This metaphor relates to Bud because if something bad happens a door will close and if something good happens a door will open
ReplyDelete-Brianna
Question #3: Bud uses his list of rules to help him during difficult times by following the rules. He probablly uses the rule that is have a funner life a lot because its true and that is a rule that people may have
ReplyDeleteBrianna,
ReplyDeletegood answers for the questions.
-Kaitlyn
Question#1-
ReplyDeleteI think the worst moment in the book so far is when the Amoses locked Bud in the shed for trying to protect himself. If you think about it, the Amoses are just selfish people so Bud didn't deserve that at all.
-Spencer
Question#2-
ReplyDeleteThis metaphor relates to Bud because of his name and how his mother says that there is always an opportunity to blossom (shine.)Also, the saying means when the path ends (something goes wrong), turn around and take another path
(relax, fix it and turn it into something good.
-Spencer
Question#3
ReplyDeleteBud uses his list of rules to relax during these tough situations.
-Spencer
By the way-

Question 1: I think one of the most sad descriptions in the book so far was when Bud had to run away from the Amoses because of how bad it was there.

Spencer,
ReplyDeleteI think the Amos's are acting selfish as well.
Mrs. Malec,
ReplyDeleteI think im very luckey after reading this. I feel luckey to have parents and i have food and shelter and clothes.
Brianna
Amy,
ReplyDeleteThat is very sad. I can't imagine how he must feel.
Mrs. Malec
Question 2: I think this metephor relates to Bud because it happens so often. When something bad happens to him there is always a way for him to close the door and open a new one.
ReplyDelete*Amy Westlund
Mrs.Malec,
ReplyDeleteYes I reflect my own life while reading this.
-Kaitlyn
(sorry Brianna I spelt your name wrong)
Amy,
ReplyDeleteI try to look at things that way. For example...if you don't get a job or a house that you really wanted...a better opportunity (house, Job...whatever) is probably waiting for you. SOmetimes it is hard to see when you are disappointed.
Mrs. Malec
Kaitlyn,
ReplyDeleteDo you feel fortunate when you are reflecting?
Mrs. Malec
Question 3: I think Bud uses his list of rules to help him get through difficult situations because they help him with unusual life,full of obstacles.
ReplyDelete*Amy Westlund
