Hello, welcome to the ELA 9 "Among the Hidden" Book Club. Here students will be posting questions, thoughts, and ideas related to the author Margaret Peterson. The purpose is to generate a genuine discussion and collaboration amongst the ELA 9 students.
Blogging:
Students will please make an original blog entry on the home page following the questions below as a guide.
1) Tell what you liked or did not like so far about the book.
2) Ask a question or make a prediction.
3) Provide a quote from the book, and explain why you choose it.
Responses:
Students will respond to the other student's blog entries on their own. They will comment on what the others are sharing. This can be as simple as agreeing with someone else and even expanding on what they communicated. Students will also have the opportunity to disagree with points of view/opinions of others in a mature manner. When a student disagrees they need to explain why. This may include asking thoughtful questions and providing an alternate point of view.

ReplyDelete1. So far what I like about the book is how it's quite fast paced and doesn't tend to drone on for too long. However, it hasn't yet really captivated me so hopefully it gets more interesting.
ReplyDelete2. My question is "why are Jen's parents far less protective than Luke's?"
3. "He had forgotten what fresh air felt like" pg. 54. - it must've been very very difficult for Luke to stay inside for over 6 months without seeing the outdoors. I can't even imagine the relief he must have felt when he went out the back door of his house.
