Hi, My name is Valeria. I'm reading My Brother Sam is Dead. I have just finished reading chapter 6. The job i have is word wizard. My first word that i picked was gay. I found it on page 77 and i picked it becasue i thought it was diffrent. The meaning in the children's dictionary is: Merry or brightly colored.
My second word for word wizard is: Surveying. I found it on page 75. I picked the word surveying because i thought it was weird. The meaning is the act or occupation of a person who makes surveys.
The Third word i picked is read. i found it on page 78 i picked it becase it was interesting. It means to give meaning to.
The Fourth word is commissary it's on page 82. I thought that it is strange. It means an officer in the church of England that represents a bishop.
The one question i have about the reading is: What do YOU think WILL HAPPEN in chapter 7-8 and chapter 9?
I am connector for My Brother Sam Is Dead. I have a text to self. On page77. I was about to ring the doorbell at my friends house and before i did she opened the door right away and said hello.
Dear Valeria, I think this book has a, um, COLORFUL vocabulary. Very expanded. Very interesting. And if you don't mind, I would like to know your connections to my connections. Anouther groups Connector, Abigail
i am discussion director for orange group and for chapter 6. 1.on page 75 why does it say ONLY couple hundred yards? isn't that a lot? 2.do you think tim is as brave as sam? 3.is tim a reliable messanger? 4.do you think betsy is right and mr.heron wants to hurt sam?
ARTFUL ARTIST ORANGE GROUP I picked to draw my picture of Betsy taking the letter from Tim. I thought it was important because I think Betsy will give it to sam and he will get mad. Kristen
Hi! This is Abby and I'm a: LITERARY LUMINARY: page 99 paragragh 1 reason informative page100 paragraph 3 reason kind of informative page100 paragraph 2 reason well written Abigail
heyy it's alexa and I was connector for chapter 7&8. my first connection was that i have a brother too. my second connection was that when my friends get in fights i also don't know which side to take. my question was "will tim ever make up his mind on which side to take???????"
Dear Alexa, Those connections, I have trouble with. My brother is, well, my brother, and when my friends fight, I don't know what to do, but I will always try to do the more honorable thing to do. Abigail
dear aarohi, i think when you were discussion director you were very well planned and your questions were very thought provoking!!!
thanks, alexa p.s. if you don't know what thought provoking means look it up in a dictionary because i don't know what it means either i just saw it on a word wizard sheet!!!
heyy heyy heyy, it's your friend alexa!!!!!!!!! i have a question for you!!!!! have you in your mind been making pictures of what's going on!? well if you have tell me and also tell me what made you make that picture.
Dear Alexa, When I read, I almost always make a picture in my mind, except when I think it is boring, but this book is not boring. I can assure you, nearly everything you've red I have made a picture about. From, Abby
Hello, Im Valeria on the orange groups Artful artist for chapters 7 and 8. I picked the scene that is on pg. 95 and 96. It is the best emotional page ever. I picked it becvase this book is related to war and since the guns reminded me of war i picked this scene. The one question i have about the reading is why do you think this chapter started with a date : The summer of 1776?
Dear Amanda, First, I think they chop off the fish heads because they do not want to eat the eyes and all of that stuff. Second, I think the big idea of the teams are when you grow up, you might have to make a choice like that. Lastly, I am not sure if they will get hurt because of the snow. They might get frost bite, or they could be bundled up. From Abigail
Dear Abby, Do you think everyone knows about the war and thinks the samethings about it? For example -what we have learned about "Paul Revere's Ride" etc. Are there any other misconceptions out there your think we shuold address here? ~Mrs. D.
Kristen i agree i would also want family members to write letters to me to. and i don't think he did deliver the letter because it was out of the envolope and it says that mr.heron did not ask so i am infering that it is not delivered.
Dear Alexa, I am making pictures in may mind but only when the parts get intersting like when Betsy was tring to take the letter. I also picture things when he was going to Verplanck Point, I could see the little kids looking out the window and Tim showing off. Good question!
Dear Valeria, I do see why you chose this picture! Though it is not my favorite scene, is IS somewhat related to the war, with all of those weapons. I am eager to see what your picture will be, that is, if I get the chance to see. Abigail
Thanks for making that clear for me! It was confusing when the chapter ended and Tim was back at the tavern. Now it makes more sense. Thanks again! Kristen!
Alexa, I agree with Kayla -why is it worth remembering the last paragraphs of chapter 6? What do we need to remember or learn from that section? Does it add to the story overall? ~Mrs. D.
Alexa, May I remind you -you are being graded on the quality of your responses. This is not AIM. Please type in full sentences so we can all follow the conversation more easily. Thank you, Mrs. D.
Dear Mrs.D, I do think that everyone knows of the war, but I do not think they all think the same thing. Some people are tories, some are Patriots. Some people might want the war to keep giong, some might not. I do not think there are any misconceptions here that we should address right now. ~ Abby
Dear Alexa, I agree with Mrs. D I couldn't read your last letter to me or your letters to anyone eles. I think you said something like thank you... I think. Kristen
Alexa and Aarohi, I agree. I think Tim will choose to be a patriot because he always says he looks up to his brother. Why do you think he will become a patriot Aarohi? Kristen
Dear Angerly Alexa, I too agree with Kristen. This is not AIM. Not a lot of people can understand you. I can not follow your coversations with other people. Please write in complete sentances so I can UNDERSTAND ~ Abigail
Dear Alexa, Its me matt from Guns for General washington. I have read summeries from my brother sam is dead and it sounds pretty good but you have to read Guns for General Washinton to know what are comments are about. Matt
dear zeuss, why do you think I should read that book. is It interesting or something??? Maybe if you told me more about it than maybe I would read it!!!!
dear people It kinda sounds interesting but a little bit boring at the same time i would proboly read the first 2 pages to see what the book is about From William
Well Aarohi if your going to tell me to write in complete sentences then you should too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dear Very Angrily Alexa, Aarohi is writing in complete sentances, and you are not. Again, this is not AIM. I am now asking you politly to type in complete sentances. ~ Abby
LITERARY LUMINARY! ORANGE GROUP-Kristen 1) I picked Pg. 96 Paragraph 2 because it is sirprising and important 2) Pg. 103 paragraph 6 I think it is Important 3) Pg. 119 paragraph 2 I think it is worth remembering
Abby Alexa said to stop calling her angrily so stop and if she is tlking aimlanguage thats mrs.DiNapoli's Job so please stop critisizing peoples work. Mrs.DiNapoli can take care of it Victoria
Dear abby, I didn't mean to be mean but it was getting annoying and it going on the internet and alexa didnt like it and it was about alexa. So.... It was rude Victoria
Dear Everyone, Please tell me what you think on chapter 11 beacause I thought it was SOO gross and I had to stop reading! Tell me what you think! Kristen THANKS!
Dear Amanda you forgot to write your name in the last post you sent to me..? It was the best chapter eever. I think it was the best because i read it to my head and i made pictures of what i was reading in a quite room maybe you should read the chapter again and in a quite room too!
Dear Valeria, I would gp to my brother and tell him what happened. Then i would go to my grandparents house and tell them and try to find out all the information
I very much agree with Kayla of thinking those words to be interesting. I have once seen a old british cold but it was old and rusty. Pieces were falling off and it was also not that big.
Valeria The end of chapter 10 is gross because neds head pops off and and there is a knife in his stomach. It was so bad that Tim trew up. I hope you read it because the last sentence is very important. It tells what side Tim is taking.
I am discussion director for chapter 9 and 10. 1)would you ber scared if you were alone and a posibilty of a cowboy snaeking up on you? 2)Did anything surprise you when the father got captured? 3)Do yiou think their mother over reacted when she found out their father got captured?Why?
If my dad got captured then I would panic and be very worried about him. maybe even start to cry because of that and because i am lost and want to be home.
Aarohi, It doesn't mean he is not going to be a Tory but it could. He doesn't say I'm not a Tory anymore he is just afraid of being a Tory beacause he might be killed. I would be afraid to what would you think if you where Tim??? Kristen!
Dear Aarohi, I agree with Kristen he could also decide to be a tory but there is a chance of both. We shold read the rest of the book and find out. kayla
Dear amanda, different people are in different places in the book you shouldnt be asking people where they are just to say oh im past you wayyyy past you Victoria
I am connector for chapter 11 and 12. ~On one of the pages it says that there was a hat with a feather in it. Like in the song "Yankee Doodle" ~My sister is stubborn like Sam.
I know i am not word wizard but on the way i found some words i did not know.
pg.167 cholera pg.170 exchequer pg.180 munity
Can word wizard find the defination for me? ~ Aarohi
Dear Amanda, I tought that the book was really tragic and scarey at some moments. Actually, yes i would suggest it to somebody. I might think some of the war boys like william or gregory because of all the weapons but, i'm not sure becase of all the sad moments too. I liked the story but a few parts made me think as if i was in the story so, it was kind of scarey!
Dear Everyone, What did you think of the book My Brother Sam Is Dead? Was it good or bad to YOU. Was it too gorey? Not enough? I personally liked the book most of the time. Now did you like the book or not? ~ Abby
OMIGOD!!!!! I can not belive sam died!!! From the title I thought it just ment he was like in big trouble. "dead meat". But I don't think he deserved to die because he was just choosing the side he thought was right so the dad shouldn't of gotten angry at sam for being a patriot. Also I don't think he deserved to die because those people that framed him for steeling the cattle when he wasn't was not write.
Dear Alexa, I actually thought the same thing about the title. It is hard to accept that he is dead, yes, but it was even not for a good cause. I mean, stealing his own cattle? No. He did not deserve to die. ~ Abby
I am Word Wizard for page 146 to the end of the book. 1)The word dwell is on page 167 and it means to live in a place.I picked it because it was interesting. 2)I picked the word rumor because i have a connection to open circle.Page 172.It means general talk or doughtf7ul accuracy 3)Enampment:It is a settle in a military camp.Page 190.I picked it bacause it was also ineresting. 4)Bayonet means a weapon like a dagger made to fit in at the end of a rifle.Pagwe 203. I picked it because it was strange.
Alexa I don't think he deserved to die because it wasn't him but the general does not know that. when tim and mother went to tell them it wasn't him, of corse they won't belive it. Any one wants to save their brother/son.
Dear Aarohi, In your last comment you said the general doesn't know that Sam didn't do it (steal cattle) but he does. Tim went and told him and he said he would consider it but he didn't agree, he just wanted to make an exaple of someone. I also do agree with you it wasn't fair that they killed Sam, it wasn't that bad what he did (of didn't do).
I look forward to reading your interesting discussion.

Dear, Kayla
ReplyDeleteI would be crying as harder as his mother was.
I would not live without my father.
He supports me on everything.
What would you do?
VALeria
Aarohi
ReplyDeleteThose words are very interesting!!!Wouldn't it be cool if we got to see an old british coin.
kayla
Dear Valeria,
ReplyDeleteI would gp to my brother and tell him what happened.
Then i would go to my grandparents house and tell them and try to find out all the information
Kayla
Dear Aarohi,
ReplyDeleteI very much agree with Kayla of thinking those words to be interesting.
I have once seen a old british cold but it was old and rusty.
Pieces were falling off and it was also not that big.
Valeria
Valeria
ReplyDeleteThe end of chapter 10 is gross because neds head pops off and and there is a knife in his stomach.
It was so bad that Tim trew up. I hope you read it because the last sentence is very important. It tells what side Tim is taking.
~ Aarohi
Dear, Kayla
ReplyDeleteI would do most of those things. but, i however don't have my grandparents near me at this moment.
Valeria
I am discussion director for chapter 9 and 10.
ReplyDelete1)would you ber scared if you were alone and a posibilty of a cowboy snaeking up on you?
2)Did anything surprise you when the father got captured?
3)Do yiou think their mother over reacted when she found out their father got captured?Why?
Kayla
Dear Valeria,
ReplyDeleteoh.
Kayla
Dear Aarohi
ReplyDeletei did read the whole chapter 10.
I will admitt it was kind of gross but i still think that that chapter is pretty important in the book.
Valeria
Kayla
ReplyDeleteIf my dad got captured then I would panic and be very worried about him. maybe even start to cry because of that and because i am lost and want to be home.
~ Aarohi
Dear Valeria,
ReplyDeleteThe comment you posted to Aarohi about chapter 10 is true i agree but i think it is more gross than you think.
Kayla
Aarohi,
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't mean he is not going to be a Tory but it could. He doesn't say I'm not a Tory anymore he is just afraid of being a Tory beacause he might be killed. I would be afraid to what would you think if you where Tim???
Kristen!
Dear Aarohi,
ReplyDeleteThatis also what i would do.
Kayla
Kayla
ReplyDeleteYOu guys shouldn't over react on that but i respect you because it's your opinion.

your friend, Veronica
Dear Veronica,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you because it was good and sad and also shocing at the end of the book!
Amanda
I am connector for chapter 11 and 12.
ReplyDelete~On one of the pages it says that there was a hat with a feather in it. Like in the song "Yankee Doodle"
~My sister is stubborn like Sam.
I know i am not word wizard but on the way i found some words i did not know.
pg.167 cholera
pg.170 exchequer
pg.180 munity
Can word wizard find the defination for me?
~ Aarohi
Dear Amanda,
ReplyDeleteI tought that the book was really tragic and scarey at some moments.
Actually, yes i would suggest it to somebody. I might think some of the war boys like william or gregory because of all the weapons but, i'm not sure becase of all the sad moments too.
I liked the story but a few parts made me think as if i was in the story so, it was kind of scarey!
sincerly,
Valeria!
Dear Valeria,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you too it was scary and I would also suggest it to Gregory and Willian too.
Amanda
dear kayla
ReplyDeleteThose were some good questions for chapter 9 and 10!!!!
your friend, Veronica!!
Dear Everyone,
ReplyDeleteWhat did you think of the book My Brother Sam Is Dead? Was it good or bad to YOU. Was it too gorey? Not enough? I personally liked the book most of the time. Now did you like the book or not?
~ Abby
OMIGOD!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI can not belive sam died!!!
From the title I thought it just ment he was like in big trouble. "dead meat". But I don't think he deserved to die because he was just choosing the side he thought was right so the dad shouldn't of gotten angry at sam for being a patriot. Also I don't think he deserved to die because those people that framed him for steeling the cattle when he wasn't was not write.
Do you think he deserved to die????????
Alexa
Dear, Amanda and other pupils.
ReplyDeleteI was discussion director for the orange/gold group.
My first question was:
1. Who would you suggest this book to? Why.?
2. Do you think their would be another book or part? Why.?
3. How do you feel about Sam dieing?.
4. If you were Sam's mother would you let him stay in the war?.
5. What were the emotions you felt while you read the book.?
Valera!`*
Dear valeria
ReplyDeletethose were great question for chapter 14 !!!!
from veronica
I was literary luminary for chapter 13 and 14.
ReplyDeletepg.183 paragraph 1 Why does he laugh? It does sound like the truth.
pg.184 prargraph 3 How do you think mother is feeling/thinking? why do you think that?
pg.189 paragraph 7 how do you think they feel?
My quetion was: what do you think would happen if the story went on 2 more pages?
Please reply
~ Aarohi
Dear Alexa,
ReplyDeleteI actually thought the same thing about the title. It is hard to accept that he is dead, yes, but it was even not for a good cause. I mean, stealing his own cattle? No. He did not deserve to die.
~ Abby
Dear Veronica,
ReplyDeleteThank you! Did you like the book?.
Valeria
I am Word Wizard for page 146 to the end of the book.
ReplyDelete1)The word dwell is on page 167 and it means to live in a place.I picked it because it was interesting.
2)I picked the word rumor because i have a connection to open circle.Page 172.It means general talk or doughtf7ul accuracy
3)Enampment:It is a settle in a military camp.Page 190.I picked it bacause it was also ineresting.
4)Bayonet means a weapon like a dagger made to fit in at the end of a rifle.Pagwe 203. I picked it because it was strange.
Kayla
Alexa
ReplyDeleteI don't think he deserved to die because it wasn't him but the general does not know that. when tim and mother went to tell them it wasn't him, of corse they won't belive it. Any one wants to save their brother/son.
~ Aarohi
Hi it's Kristen.
ReplyDeleteMy Word Wizzard sheet is missing so if anyone sees it or has it please tell me. Thanks.
WORDS:
cholera pg. 167 (new) a dangerous infectious disease
exchequer pg. 170 (new)
seige pg. 171 (different)
munity pg. 180 (new)
Other definitions were not in my dictionary and I am out of time. Sorry.
Kristen
Dear Aarohi,
ReplyDeleteIn your last comment you said the general doesn't know that Sam didn't do it (steal cattle) but he does. Tim went and told him and he said he would consider it but he didn't agree, he just wanted to make an exaple of someone. I also do agree with you it wasn't fair that they killed Sam, it wasn't that bad what he did (of didn't do).
Kristen!
Dear Abby,
ReplyDeleteI agree. I liked it most of the time but it was to gorey. Heads falling off and things like that aren't for me. Gregory would like it.
