Kite Runner Chapter 8-9


1. AS i read on, I dislike Amir more and more he is not trying to make anything better with hassan. He is just being selfish and trying to forget about it himself. By trying to forget it he just makes things worse by acting like it never happened and it resulted in Hassan and Alli leaving Amir and Baba forever.

2. In the scene with the pomegreantes Amir wants to get a reaction out of Hassan and make Hassan lash out back at Amir. Hassan is a pacifist and won't react which just makes Amir feel worse.

3. We learn thatA mir is the worst of the three because he sees things being done and doesn't do anything about it. Although Assef is a very bad person Amir is worse.

I chose a picture of Ghjandi because Hassan is a pacifist and will never do anything to harm any one else. Just like Ghandi

3rd MP Reflection & 4th MP Preview

1. Looking back at my theme I am quite disappointed in myself. This is the worst grade I have gotten on a theme so far this year. I can't even read this theme readers writing so I don't even really know why she didn't like my theme. She circled all of the pronouns that I used so I guess she just didn't like the tense and way I stated it rather than actually disliking the journey that I chose.

2. I am very proud of my TMD project. My group worked very well together and I think that it was a great project to have. It let us show that we knew and understood the book and we were allowed to be as creative as we wanted.

3. I expect the 4th marking period to be fun. I know we will still have to do work and what not but I think it will be quite relaxing. I am excited to read the Kite Runner because I hear it is a great book. I want to learn a lot but have an extra chillin 4th marking period at the same time.
