socratic seminar notes

WHAT DID YOU THNK OF THE ENDING?
Nicole thought it was a great twist and surprising ending. She thought it was good
Brent agreed with her he said it also was great that it ha an epilogue and an afterwards which summed up everything well.
Mariana thought it was the best ending that we has so far because ewe had closure

DID YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON WITH FRANK IN THE BASEMENT THE ENTIRE TIME?
Brent thinks that there should have been more information. He wanted Dave to go into the basement to give us an understanding of how he is and how he’s feeling.
They all agreed that it would have been better if they went down throughout the entire story because it would have made the middle of the book better but the ending would have been less of a surprise

DID MONTANA RELATE TO ANY OTHER BOOK?
Dan thought that Macbeth related to this book in the suspense ways.
Nicole thought that it related to The Catcher in the Rye because of the parents expectations
Bret also agreed with Nicole because he said David was also, like Torey, trying to find his place in society.

DO YOU THINK THAT THEM LEAVING WAS A GOOD CHOICE?
Lauren thinks it was the right choice because its time they move on and even thought they shouldn’t forget about the past, it shouldn’t have to haunt them

DOES DAVID TEACHING HISTORY HAVE ANY SIGNIFICACE IN THE STORY?
Nicole thinks that as time moves on, there are more changes and he wants to teach the children how it use to be with discrimination with Indians
