The story that was written was made last year. This is proof that it was made last year,

One setting that affects Sam is winter. Winter affects Sam because snowed and he is stuck. In the book, Sam has to dig the snow "up from under" to get out. This affects Sam because he is stuck in the tree and he can't get out so he has nothing to do and is bored for the first time. Also, Sam has to dig out from under the snow to get outside of his tree house

The second effect of My Side Of The Mountain , was he couldn't leave his home because the compact snow kept him in. He couldn't leave to get food or supplies but the snow did help insulate the heat. Here's my quote,’’ I have not been outside since the storm began.’’ This shows that he is stuck in his home and hasn't ventured out in a while.

Sam has to stay in his hemlock tree because of the snow.  In his journal Sam wrote, "It snowed all day yesterday and today. I have not been outsider since the storm began and I am bored..."p5 Sam is bored because he cant do much with the cold and scary snow blocking his entrance, trapping him.

While a boy named Sam is living on a mountain, he experiences a snow storm in winter. Before that, he is really busy getting ready for it. He usually tracks the date, but before the snowstorm, he got caught up gathering food: "I have been too busy gathering nuts and berries, smoking venison, fish, and small game to keep up with the exact date." Since winter is coming, Sam has to gather food and prepare instead of tracking the days.

Although Sam has a safe shelter to live in, the winter has to force Sam into making risky decisions because of the winter.  Sam was scared and worried because he thought he would never get out of his treehouse because of the frequent winter blasts. '' when i wrote that last winter, I was scared and thought I'd never get out of my tree''.  This effects Sam and the setting because usually winters that have frequent storms seemingly never end and  after awhile Sam is afraid that he will never be in the outside world again.

One of the effects is that Sam had a bad storm but after the storm he thought the snow was beautiful. Outside the snow was beautiful. Sam looks outside and see's how beautiful the snow and the woods is. "The hemlock grave was laced with snow the meadow was smooth and white and the gorge was sparkling with ice

One setting that affects Sam is his tree house. Sam's tree gives him shelter, and it can protect him from nature plus he's using nature against nature "I made a snug cave in a tree that i now call home." Sam's tree is hiding him from dangerous forces of nature like the Cold and Snow. really anything that can harm him cant if he's in his treehouse.

Another setting that efffected sam was winter. Sam is in the blizzard trying to survive and get warmth from he's tree. " I have not been outside since the storm began, and I am bored for the first time." Sam had to stay in his home for a long time and when he was stuck in his tree for a couple of days he was feeling bored and border in his home as the blizzard was growing, he did not know what to do at all.

it is cold out side so he has to make a fire. "It doesn't take much fire to warm this small home."
He can get warm fast if he has a fire and if did not have the fire he would die

Winter affects Sam by making him scared of a blizzard. A quote that supports this is, "I was scared and thought I'd never get out of my tree. I had been scared for two days-ever since the first blizzard hit." This quote shows that winter affected Sam because there are only blizzards in winter and the blizzard could have not let him go out of his tree home or even kill him because of the cold and lack of food because he could freeze and eventually, he would run out of food and he would not be able to leave his home, so he could starve.

Winter:

Durring the winter the snow ends up turning beautiful, in the novel when Sam got out and survived it: "The hemlock grove was laced with snow, the meadow was was smooth and white, and the gorge was sparkling with ice

The winter made sam work extra hard and that could impact him in certain ways. "...And dug and burned out the tree...I have been busy gathering nuts and berries to prepare for winter." This impacts him because he hasn't had time to sit down and think of that date which isn't healthy. Also he could be doing all this work and get snowed in and die

Ever since the snow storm hit, there had be limited things to do around Sam's tree home.  In another words, Sam is board. "It snowed all day yesterday and today. I have not been outside since the storm began and I'm board. Sam doesn't have anything to do because of the snow and how cold it is. He could get hurt out in that kind of weather.

The winter, with its many blizzards, are not that scary.  When Sam comes out of the tree, he sees the different parts of the mountain, which are "laced with snow," and "sparkling with ice."  Sam realizes that winter is not as scary as he thought it would be.  He now fells more comfortable in the snow, and can see the positive sides of winter.

A setting that affected Sam was Winter, I know this because Sam has to be prepared for food and the weather. I know this because in the text it stated " I have been just too busy gathering nuts and berries, smoking venison, fish and a small game to keep up with the date." (paragraph 3)This affected him because when Sam has to live in a tree house for a snowstorm and you have to be prepared.

The Winter  used to scare Sam with snowstorms but now Sam isn't scared of them: "I guess I laughed because my first snowstorm was over and had not been so terrible so far." The setting effects the character and his conflict because the snow is so beautiful it makes him realize that it's not as scary as he thought  would be. He's more comfortable on the snow and is able to see the positive side of winter.

# data[].attributes.body
A setting that affected him was when he got stuck in his tree. This affected him because he thought he would never come out of his tree because of the blizzard and since he is stuck there, there is no food or water. "I was scared and thought maybe I'd never get out of my tree." He eventually decided to come out of his tree and everything was beautiful.

One of the settings that effected Sam was the winter. During a blizzard in winter Sam has "been scared for two days". Sam is stuck in his home he hollowed out in the tree and getting afraid he won't be able to get out of his "prison".
