We haven't decided on the place yet for the setting. ]]> 2016-10-08 18:53:46 UTC https://padlet.com/stroxell/2bip095ofhsp/wish/129296132 stroxell https://padlet.com/stroxell/2bip095ofhsp/wish/129296422 What hints does the author give us about the setting?]]> 2016-10-08 18:59:36 UTC https://padlet.com/stroxell/2bip095ofhsp/wish/129296422 https://padlet.com/stroxell/2bip095ofhsp/wish/129297318 Some students thought that the story might take place in Africa because that is where vultures live. However another student pointed out that there are vultures in American in the "South" like in cowboy movies. 

We have not discussed a time period yet. We will do that on Monday :) ]]> 2016-10-08 19:23:31 UTC https://padlet.com/stroxell/2bip095ofhsp/wish/129297318 stroxell https://padlet.com/stroxell/2bip095ofhsp/wish/130134277 We noticed that Peter's grandfather owns a Chevy.  Does that mean he lives in North America?

We found that Peanuts are grown in Georgia, Texas, Alabama, Florida, N. Carolina, s. Carolina, Mississippi, Virginia, Oaklahoma & New Mexico.   We think maybe Oaklahoma, Alabama because it has vultures but also snows there. ]]> 2016-10-12 23:59:04 UTC https://padlet.com/stroxell/2bip095ofhsp/wish/130299512 stroxell https://padlet.com/stroxell/2bip095ofhsp/wish/130480317 We are thinking Canada with the references to snow and "bear bait."

We had a good discussion about whether we think Pax is happening in the Past (because thats when the wars were) or in the future (because there isn't a war now) ]]> 2016-10-21 23:45:39 UTC https://padlet.com/stroxell/2bip095ofhsp/wish/132468420 wow_suzie https://padlet.com/stroxell/2bip095ofhsp/wish/133505947 There are Voles, Wrens, and Timothy Grass,]]> 2016-10-27 01:16:46 UTC https://padlet.com/stroxell/2bip095ofhsp/wish/133505947
