Chpt. 4 The Boy in the Striped Pajamas by Tara Divittorio https://padlet.com/tara_divittorio/j5xic8c8sn827fff Made with a lightning strike of genius en-us 2021-05-11 19:56:29 UTC 2023-05-17 01:31:42 UTC hello@padlet.com tara_divittorio https://padlet.com/tara_divittorio/j5xic8c8sn827fff/wish/1515098229 Submit your response to the question: Why do you think it is so difficult for Bruno & Gretel to understand the true nature of Auschwitz?  & respond to at least one classmate. Please remember that your feedback must be kind and thoughtful as well as constructive. This means I’m looking for more than “This is Great!” Some sentence starters might be: I was impressed by.... OR Did you notice that....... OR What did you mean when you wrote.....]]> 2021-05-11 19:56:29 UTC https://padlet.com/tara_divittorio/j5xic8c8sn827fff/wish/1515098229 Matt H. https://padlet.com/tara_divittorio/j5xic8c8sn827fff/wish/1775678514 I think that Bruno is honestly just clueless about everything!  I think that Gretel probably understands more than Bruno does but she just doesn't care that much since it doesn't affect her personally.

It was almost as if Gretel was in a state of denial when she sat and thought more about things on her bed but Bruno seemed stumped. s365012 https://padlet.com/tara_divittorio/j5xic8c8sn827fff/wish/1859940017 -Serena F.]]> 2021-11-01 22:06:49 UTC https://padlet.com/tara_divittorio/j5xic8c8sn827fff/wish/1859940017 I think as they are children and have grown up with Nazism they do not truly understand the full extent of what is happening. Innocence is keeping them blind. https://padlet.com/tara_divittorio/j5xic8c8sn827fff/wish/1866666361 Audrey H]]> 2021-11-04 05:43:05 UTC https://padlet.com/tara_divittorio/j5xic8c8sn827fff/wish/1866666361 https://padlet.com/tara_divittorio/j5xic8c8sn827fff/wish/1868434462 I think it is so hard for them to understand because their parents have been hiding the kids from the harsh truth. Also, Gretel was trying to make sense of the situation but couldn't because she was confused.

They have always been in the city surrounded by shops and people who look happy. I feel like their parents (particularly the mother) are trying to shield them from it so now that they see it they are trying to figure it out. ]]> 2021-11-09 20:35:26 UTC https://padlet.com/tara_divittorio/j5xic8c8sn827fff/wish/1879434905 hilary b https://padlet.com/tara_divittorio/j5xic8c8sn827fff/wish/1987497461 i think its hard for them to understand because there not used to it ]]> 2022-01-12 04:55:27 UTC https://padlet.com/tara_divittorio/j5xic8c8sn827fff/wish/1987497461 Alabama f. https://padlet.com/tara_divittorio/j5xic8c8sn827fff/wish/1998963688 i think its hard for them because they have never seen anything like it and there not used to it ]]> 2022-01-18 20:38:52 UTC https://padlet.com/tara_divittorio/j5xic8c8sn827fff/wish/1998963688 Colton F. https://padlet.com/tara_divittorio/j5xic8c8sn827fff/wish/2070516863 I think its because they've never seen anything like this before.

They've only been used to and known their own luxurious lives. So seeing this they have no idea what to think or what is going on. However, they do understand that whatever this is, isn't good and gives them a bad feeling.

To them it's completely unheard of—it's not something everyone experiences in their lives.

They are sheltered from the reality of the concentration camp by their parents, who refuse to tell them the truth about what is happening in Auschwitz. But then again they could just be afraid too.
