He’s just been sent Camp Green Lake, where people think that when bad boys dig a hole that is 5 feet deep and 5 feet wide, they will turn into good boys. There is no water at Camp Green Lake, and no one knows what is hiding beneath it,    Stanley tries to dig up the truth of his frame.]]> 2019-05-12 22:57:16 UTC https://padlet.com/366044/9opetxkz6btm/wish/359271364 366044 https://padlet.com/366044/9opetxkz6btm/wish/359271463 Louis Sachar is 65 years old.

Camp Green Lake is a “camp” where people get sent to for breaking the law. Even though it’s called Camp Green Lake, there is no water because of a drought. At Camp Green Lake, convicts are asked to dig a hole 5 feet deep and 5 feet wide, the length of the shovel. People think that if you tell a bad boy to dig a hole, it will turn him into a good boy.]]> 2019-05-12 23:05:47 UTC https://padlet.com/366044/9opetxkz6btm/wish/359272347 366044 https://padlet.com/366044/9opetxkz6btm/wish/359272716 Stanley Yelnets is polite. When Mr Sir, a counselor at Camp Green Lake didn’t fill his canteen with water and instead let the water pour out onto the dirt ground, Stanley didn’t fight or make a big deal out of it and said “Thanks” instead.]]> 2019-05-12 23:09:23 UTC https://padlet.com/366044/9opetxkz6btm/wish/359272716 366044 https://padlet.com/366044/9opetxkz6btm/wish/359275450 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-4K8feFSGKHe560_HhF-I30DqbPnm5nC_PKr7Su9zY4]]> 2019-05-12 23:29:22 UTC https://padlet.com/366044/9opetxkz6btm/wish/359275450 366044 https://padlet.com/366044/9opetxkz6btm/wish/359275629 The main conflict of the story was when Stanley wanted to escape Camp Green Lake. Even though Camp Green Lake was sort of like a jail, that was the only place with water within a long distance.]]> 2019-05-12 23:30:34 UTC https://padlet.com/366044/9opetxkz6btm/wish/359275629 366044 https://padlet.com/366044/9opetxkz6btm/wish/359275873 The theme of the story is that you should work hard and you will succeed. Stanley wanted to escape Camp Green Lake because he was framed. So he worked hard and found food. He also found water. He and Zero worked together to succeed.]]> 2019-05-12 23:32:21 UTC https://padlet.com/366044/9opetxkz6btm/wish/359275873 366044 https://padlet.com/366044/9opetxkz6btm/wish/359276139 I would give the book 5 stars. One pro is the plot, the plot flows well and the transitions are smooth from one scene to another. Another pro is that the amount of detail in the book for the reader to visualize every single detail about the book. A con is that it is not very appropriate for every age because there is shooting and guns involved. A second con is that the book teaches the reader good lessons with bad examples.]]> 2019-05-12 23:34:22 UTC https://padlet.com/366044/9opetxkz6btm/wish/359276139 366044 https://padlet.com/366044/9opetxkz6btm/wish/359276258 One of my favorite part in the book was when Stanley was teaching Zero how to read and write. This shows that Stanley cares about someone he’s met for about 1 week. I like this part because Stanley is helping Zero who doesn’t even know how to say every single letter in the alphabet instead of making fun of him like the counselors at Camp Green Lake. This also shows caring and kindness. It was also challenging for Zero, which is a good thing because if everything in the world was to easy, then why would we need to go to school? In this case, Zero is the student and Stanley is the teacher.]]> 2019-05-12 23:35:23 UTC https://padlet.com/366044/9opetxkz6btm/wish/359276258
