So far in the story Ben is trying not to focus on his dad because he does not want to see his dads body start to break down because that will make him really sad. He takes his mind off his dad by hanging out with his friends and enjoying the rest of the summer.

Ben is still trying to not notice his dads declining health but that is not possible because day by day his dads speech is getting worse and he has to use a cane when he takes walks and he does not take his daily 3 mile walks anymore with his wife. Even after all of this Ben is still focusing oh his football season and his dad is to.

It is getting very hard for Ben´s dad to even say one word correctly. Ben is seeing how quickly the disease is getting so he is starting to worry. As of now it has not affected him on the football field but t the end of practice his brother has to talk for his dad because nobody can understand him that well.

# data[].attributes.body
Ben has been seeing his dad´s speech getting worse but also his dad is having a hard time driving a car and he needs to walk with a cane.

In the story Ben is at a tournament for lacrosse and his coach made him guard this one kid one on one the entire game because he was their best players. It was so hot out that Ben said his feet felt like they were burning on the hot turf. I have had this happen to me before where my team was playing on a day that was 95 degrees but it was probably;y even hotter on the turf. Another bad thing was that we only had 13 players so there were not many subs. I had to play almost every down so by the end I was so sweaty hot and tired and on top of that my feet were burning. Also the other team was better rested because they had subs.

A piece of figurative language I found in the text was, ¨ Ahhhh. He rolled over to protect himself. He was awake now, but the chains of exhaustion hung heavy around his neck.

The author put this piece of dialogue because he wants the reader to full understand how serious football is to the family.

Some figurative language I found in the text was , ¨ Tuna had a big house on a big green hill. In the front, thirty-foot white columns upheld a flat triangular pediment, reminding Ben of the Greek temple he´d seen in a history book.¨ So you can see here the author uses figurative language to better describe Tunas house. He uses a example from ancient Greece because he know most people know what those types of buildings looked like.

Ben is a QB and every day him and his brother go outside and play catch. His brother use to be a college quarterback but injuries pulled him down and his dad was a DE end in the NFL just like the author of this book. Tim Green is purposefully basing the book off him. Ben plays football but he is a completely different position that me. I am a center and he is a quarterback but the center does snap the ball to the quarterback. That is why I choose a window for this scene.

Ben is a kid who is very cautious and he is afraid of getting into trouble. He did not want to sleepover at his friends house in fear that they would get in trouble. So when his friend planned to prank a kid in the middle of the night Ben called his brother to pick him. Basically this is a mirror to me because I am a kid who does not like pranking people or trying to get into trouble because it can result in other consequences.

The main character in the book that I am reading is Josh. His dad plays professional Triple A baseball. So you can probably guess that Josh plays baseball as well.

When Josh was able to get onto the team his teammates started to act rude towards him because he is 12 and the rest are 14 years old they feel that it is unfair if he made the team even if he is better then any of the other kids. From all of the mean things that the teammates on his team say to him, at one point it made him question why he does not just play on a team with kids his age.

I think the theme of the story is to not force people to say things because in the story we saw when Terry asked his dad multiple times to tell him about the disease he had so eventually he started telling him about it. Terry then later felt bad because his dad started to get emotional. In the text it says, Terry felt the fear, and he also felt the tears coming down his cheeks. His hand went across the
table, and he took his father’s hand an held it. It was shaking.¨ This piece of text evidence really shows how emotional the moment was for both Terry and his Dad.

In the story stop the sun the main character Terry had to constantly help his dad because of the fact that he has some disease called Vietnam Syndrome.

# data[].attributes.body
Denotation: Floating- Not settled in a definite place fluctuating or variable

You can see the author put this term in here because he wanted to show how exited it is for Teddy to make the team. This is why for the connotation I put the word exited because the author makes the mood very obvious.

Basically what is going on is this scene is that Teddy's team is losing pretty badly and their starting quarterback got hurt in week 1 so their had their backup quarterback be the starter for the second game. The new quarterback had already thrown two interceptions one taken back for a touchdown the other gave the other team good field position to score. The score was 14-0 and it was only the first quarter. Teddy knew that he could throw the ball good he had been practicing with his friends. So when he went to go up to his coach the author used a hyperbole to show the reader how stressful the moment was for Teddy. It took a lot of gut for him to do that. This decision that Teddy made also shows that he is a natural born leader and that he has what it takes to be a captain on his team.

Denotation: A term used to say that someone is annoying you
Connotation: Angry, Mad, Tense
In this scene between Teddy and his mom you can tell that the mood is very tense and heated because of the two different points of view. With this scene it gives the reader a better understanding of the different point of view between Teddy and his mom´s opinion about his dad that left him when he was younger now coming to live with them. We learn form this conversation that Teddy is not happy with his dad coming back.

# data[].attributes.body
You can see that in this conversation Teddy's mom is trying to tell Teddy that his father is trying to act like a father again. She told Teddy to give him a chance. But Teddy just said that she was defending him. You can see here that Teddy and his mom also have different viewpoints on their family's situations.

¨Teddy just said, ¨Yeah great call,¨ to his dad, even though he was amazed that his father would rather talk about the play call than the play Teddy had made.¨ From this piece of dialogue you can clearly see that Teddy and his dad are not very close any more because of how his dad had left Teddy and his mom. You can also see that Teddy's dad is kind of selfish in a way.

As you can see in this scene Brooke and Raven really start to bond in this scene. They realize that even that they are technically half sisters they realize they are sisters and that they should treat each other like real full sisters. The setting for this to happen is perfect as well because they are in the middle of a wind storm where there are white fluff flying from the cottonwood trees.

The old woman says, “There’s no such thing as a half-sister. She walks over to the door, opens it. “Just like the moon,” she says. “There’s no such thing as a half-moon either.”

Brooke looks at me for confirmation and I shrug.

The woman motions us to the door. “Look at the sky. Sure, there’s a half-moon tonight that we can see, but the full moon is always there,” she tells us.  “We see the moon because as it revolves around the Earth, only the part facing the sun is visible to us.” The woman stops talking and takes a long look at us. “Most times we only see part of a thing, but there’s always more to see, more to know.” She winks at me, says, “You understand what I’m saying?” The woman is saying this because even though raven and Brooke are technically half sisters they still should act like real sisters to each other. The example the old lady gave about the moon really put into perspective the point that she is trying to make.

When Teddy was trying out and he started to do bad and after that he started to get even worse. Under the pressure he was not preforming well. He does not realize that it is the same game that he was practicing with his friend a few days earlier to prepare for the tryouts. It took his friend to talk to him in order to settle down and tell him to just play how he normally does because it is still the same game. I have not really had this happen to me but there have been times in games where a teammate of mine has not preformed well so I have had to settle him down.
