Chapter 16: "Died on the Field of Honor"

Well, we have finished our book! This is definitely one of my favorites and I think that it has become some of yours as well. For our last post, tell me what you thought of the book. Tell me what was good, what was bad, and how it has changed your love for reading. Thank you for being a wonderful class to visit!!

Chapter 15: Time Runs Out

We learned some pretty cool information in this chapter. What do you think is the most important thing we learned and why?

Chapter 14: The Race to VMI

After all that you know about Benjy, how much of a sense of accomplishment do you think he felt when he woke up with the watch in his hands? Use examples to explain your answer. See if you can use a more exciting word than just "good".

Chapter 13: The Battle of New Market

Wow...what an amazing chapter! Instead of me asking questions about this chapter, take a few minutes and tell me what you think about what you read. If you want to ask questions, you may. If you want to answer another student's question, feel free to do that as well!

Chapter 12: Last-Minute Fears

Benjy was very distracted in this chapter but was able to keep his adventure a secret. If you were in his shoes would you be able to keep something this big a secret? Do you think you would have been just as distracted as Benjy was?

Chapter 12: Last-Minute Fears

PREDICT: What do you think will happen to Hugh during and after the battle? There are no wrong answers!

Chapter 11: Hugh's Story

PREDICT: What exactly do you think Benjy's plan entails? Do you think it will work? What could go wrong with this plan? Oooh..I am so excited now to read the next couple chapters and see how it all turns out!
