"Young Goodman Brown" Questions

  1. I think that Hawthorne's purpose of writing the story is to explain that people could be evil sometimes.

"Conscience of a Hacker"

Adults think that they know us really well but the don't know what is going in our heads. Technology is growing bigger every single day. Not everyone is the same. Our world is different from an adult's life.

"Young Goodman Brown"

I think that everyone shows bravery in their own way. Everyone could have faith in anything and acompish anything they want. Everyone can make a promise but not anyone can make the promise happen.

"The Right to your Opinion"

The "The Right to your opinion" is saying that everyone has the same rights. Everyone could think what they want. It is an article that is true everyone could think what they want because it is their opinion and not another person's opinion.

Why is your big question?

I thought the article was saying nothing but the truth. Everything on it was so true. When I was small I wouldn't care if I would fall down. It is true. Many people have questions about everything. Why are there so many cultures? Why are people different?

socratic seminar/Earth on Turtles back

In our group we were talking about language. Why some people thought it was the same and why some people thought it was different. We thought that before they used a different language but then they rewrote the story in Engliah.

The Earth on Turtle's Back

I think that the story was so interesting. It was so interesting how the animals tried so hard to bring the earth up. I think that a lesson for this story is to never give up because you can accomplish anything you want. When the story ended I just had one question. How are  the other people get down to earth?
