Mahmoud is exhausted and he says he wants to go back to Syria and he doesn't care if he dies. (Gratz Pg. 122). This shows change is hard for him because he is very frustrated that he is not able to get on the boat.]]> 2022-04-18 14:58:48 UTC https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147088186 https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147088438 The theme of this book so far is being considerate builds relationships. Some evidence that proves this is when Steve's little brother Jeffery would give him random things such as remotes and tissues. Steven would say he hated it at the time, but now he realises his brother was just caring about him (Sonnenblick Pg 70). The theme is shown by his little brother Jeffery being so kind and caring.]]> 2022-04-18 14:58:59 UTC https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147088438 https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147089045 Change is hard for the kids because Ms. Bixby was their favorite teacher and she wasn't able to go to the party (pg. 31).

Before Hitler, Josef had a normal life but when the Nazi's showed up Josef was treated like trash. Josef was on a train buying a newspaper and the guy selling it to him was German. Josef wasn't wearing his armband so the guy didn't know he was a Jew, but when is armband slipped out then the guy freaked out. (Gratz Pg22) ]]> 2022-04-18 15:00:10 UTC https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147089920 https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147090072 In Refugee for the theme I chose change is hard. The evidence I have in the book Mahomed says, "I want to go back to syria I don't care if we die!" (Gratz pg. 122) This shows that the change is hard going around facing scams trying to find places to stay, just to wait to get on a boat.]]> 2022-04-18 15:00:17 UTC https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147090072 https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147090086 The theme that I listed in my book was "Cherish the moments with your family". In the book it says, "My brother would always give me the remote and tissues. I hated it but now I realize that he was just looking out for me (Sonnenblick pg.70). ]]> 2022-04-18 15:00:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147090086 https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147090269 One theme that I think fits the story Fuzzy Mud is think before you act. The example is that Chad is fighting Marshal because Marshal is smarter than him and Marshal made Chad look like a fool. (Sachar pg. 32). Since Chad was jealous of Marshal, and he wants to "set things right" he wanted to beat Marshal up, but then the events turned and Chad was the one who got hurt.]]> 2022-04-18 15:00:27 UTC https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147090269 d25stella2751 https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147090282 I chose the theme change is hard. I picked this theme because I have seen it a lot in the book. For example, when Carley goes to school, she is picked on by a classmate. (Hunt pg. 54) The theme is shown because Carley is a new student and she is having a hard time fitting in at school. Carley's situation is always changing. She has been alone and confused. That is why I think the theme change is hard fits with Carley's situation.]]> 2022-04-18 15:00:27 UTC https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147090282 d25henry6399 https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147091781 One theme in the book, Refugee, is that if something is too good to be true, it probably is. In the text it says, "He's a Nazi in disguise. He decides who lives and who dies." (Gratz p. 133) This shows a theme because the ship Josef and his family are on was supposed to go straight to Cuba, but there is a Nazi on the ship who decides who dies.]]> 2022-04-18 15:01:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147091781 d25effie9523 https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147091882 "It's okay to love"


One theme I noticed was it's okay to love. I see that when she says this. "I love Michael Eric. In fact, I think I love them all." (Hunt pg 83). This shows that she loves them all, but she seems almost scared by it. She is learning to love them.]]> 2022-04-18 15:01:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147091882 https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147092756 I think that the theme of the book so far is "change is hard." I think that because in the book Steve was talking about how he is having family issues and how his teacher is leaving with only a month left of school and how his parents screamed and his sister used to like him but know she wants nothing to do with him(Anderson pg.68). ]]> 2022-04-18 15:02:22 UTC https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147092756 https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147092846 The theme for this book is to not let little rocks stop you when you have a hole mountain to climb. This is shown in the book one way by the boys wanted to get a cake for Ms.Bixby but they could not because they did not have enough money but Brand says"we're getting the whole cake" ( Anderson pg 84). This shows the theme by how the boys did not have enough money but the brand used all his money to buy the cake because he was not going to let the money stop them from getting a cake for Ms.Bixby.]]> 2022-04-18 15:02:26 UTC https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147092846 https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147093314 The theme for my book is being the best isn't everything.  It's ok if you get a B on an assignment. It's not the end of the world. "it seems impossible for him to get anything less than an A." (Anderson pg. 87) Steve does a lot of work to be a straight-A student, but good grades aren't everything.]]> 2022-04-18 15:02:48 UTC https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147093314 https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147095039 One theme is that change is hard. The boys made a plan to skip school because they wanted to see Ms. Bixby(Anderson pg 39-40). Steve also thinks change is hard because he said it(Anderson pg 68). This text evidence shows the theme because the boys all show that change is hard.]]> 2022-04-18 15:04:14 UTC https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147095039 https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147096768 I chose the theme treat others the way you want to be treated because Marshall and Tamaya both get into a fight with Chad. Chad wants to fight back but they are scared. After Chad tells them that he wants to fight they put fuzz mud in his face and run. They realise that he went missing, Tamaya wants to tell someone but Marshall doesn't.

She has lost her mom and her step dad abused her. Now she is in a, what seems to be, perfect household. She is living with the Murphys. One big change for carly is when a police man comes to Carly's house and asks her questions about her mom hurting her. Her step dad is already in jail for abuse and assault. They want evidence to take her mom. (Hunt p.58-59).]]> 2022-04-18 15:09:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2147101568 https://padlet.com/ebranson/8hzsjeixxfijj1vs/wish/2149065414 A theme is that true friends help care for you. (Sachar pg33). Chad was trying to punch and hurt Marshal. Tamaya cares for Marshal so much. She decides to take mud from the ground and put it in Chad's face to help Marshal. This shows how Tamay is a true friend to Marshal because she stepped into the fight to help Marshal.
