Chapter Ten
Sam and Billy reacted quite differently to their stop in the town. What do you think accounted for their differing perspectives?
I am not pleased with the repetition and copying of thoughts and ideas here. These responses need to be done in a more thoughtful and original way, and explained thoroughly. One quick sentence is not getting the job done. To do this well, you must revisit the book. This is supposed to be a discussion, not just a brief statement.
Because Sam dose not like being on that trip and moving.It also says that Sam dose not like changes when Billy likes changes and moving starting fresh.
I think Sam isn't as into the trip as Billy is. I know this because Billy is acting all ecstatic and it looks like Sam is almost bored, and Sam is not used to unusual things like people yelling questions at each other and feeling bad for exploded pigeons.
Sam isn't thrilled that they moved to the Dakotas but I think he will grow into the trip I think Sam would've have rather stayed with Grandpa and Grandma and I think that because we can tell that because before they moved he was not exited that they were moving and I'm pretty sure he said he doesn't want to go.
That Billy thinks of this trip as fun, while Sam thinks of this as something they have to do.
ReplyDeleteI'd have to agree with Tyler Billy likes the trip,But Sam not so much.
ReplyDeleteI also agree with Tyler because as we know Sam isn't as into the trip as Billy is.

ReplyDeleteJohn Mr. B said to explain thoughtfully. Plus, it doesn't make sence.
ReplyDeleteSam isn't into the trip that much that much because he didn't like the idea in the first place, but Billy has been excited from the start.

ReplyDeleteGreat thinking, Tyler!
ReplyDeleteJohn, how is that any different or more thoughtful than what you wrote the first time? It does not make sense to me, either.
