Kitty and Ashley,

 

Great job in your lesson this week!  For homework, please read pages 29-64 (Chapters 6-10).

 

On the forum, please respond to the following question (5 sentence minimum): 

How do Ramo and his sister get stranded alone on the island? If you were Karana would you have left the ship to go back for your brother? Why or why not? 

 

Please also select your favorite scene from these chapters and be prepared to discuss. 

 

Translate the last paragraph on p.51 in Chapter 9 beginning, “For a long time I lay on the rock…”

Original Post

When everyone  was ready to go away from the island by the large ship, Roma went back to take his spear. So finally he did not take the ship. His sister was on the ship. However she fell into the water and then swam back to the island and to be together with her brother.

 

If I were Karana and also I was on the ship, I will not go back to find my brother. Even though my brother was my close relative I have, I had to think about others on the ship. So I cannot let the ship go to the island again just because of one person. Also the leader said they would come back in several days. I would try my best to go back to rescue him after arriving to the new land.

 

But if I fell into the water, I will certainly swan back to the island like real Karana. Because my brother was still young, he was not capable to take care of himself. Since I have lost my father, I have to cherish the rest of my relatives.
