She just wants some friends, people to talk to, and to be treated fair. She has big dreams, but she is stuck on a ranch, married to a man she doesn’t like. ]]> 2020-11-19 14:15:11 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941384816 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941389188 I think that the situation was bound to happen and wonder why George would let Lennie have so much freedom when he knows the possible troubles.]]> 2020-11-19 14:16:04 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941389188 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941400584 I think George influenced a lot of his actions because Lennie only thought about how George was going to get mad at him and that he wasn't going to let him tend to the rabbits.]]> 2020-11-19 14:18:11 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941400584 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941407697 Lennie is constantly scared of how George is gonna react to every thing he does. I feel that George underestimated Lennie's capabilities to do harm; When George realized the damage was already done. ]]> 2020-11-19 14:19:32 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941407697 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941408775 I think it is very sad how easily Lennie can accidentally kill something and someone, and I think there were many things George should have done differently. Instead of telling Lennie being scared of not getting rabbits, George could have taught him what he should do, so he knows how he should interact with animals and people.]]> 2020-11-19 14:19:45 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941408775 3013110 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941412914 George is the main reason for Lennie to act out in this way. He was fearful of what George would do, so he freaked out. George will most likely not see it this way. He will still blame Lennie, and Lennie, who looks up to George, will unfortunately believe him. ]]> 2020-11-19 14:20:30 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941412914 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941414218 To me this chapter was so surprising. I think how he has been treated his whole life, especially by George, is what caused him to act out of anger. He only cared what George would think about it.]]> 2020-11-19 14:20:45 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941414218 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941414930 Lennie didn't intend to hurt Curley's wife, but he was just so focused on George getting mad at him and not letting him tend the rabbits that his anger got the best of him.]]> 2020-11-19 14:20:53 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941414930 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941420062 If George had not left, then I don't think Lennie would have killed Curley's wife. SInce Lennie had no instruction from George, he did not know what to do and so he acted harshly but he did not mean it.]]> 2020-11-19 14:21:38 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941420062 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941422187 I feel like Curley’s wife was kind of responsible for her own death. She saw the dead puppy and probably knew that Lennie is a very rough person ,but she still let Lennie pet her hair.]]> 2020-11-19 14:21:54 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941422187 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941423248 I feel as though, Lennie doesn't really understand what he has just done. He acts like it is just like killing a mouse. I also think George now realizes what is going to happen to Lennie, he knows his fate.]]> 2020-11-19 14:22:01 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941423248 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941424393 I was not expecting that at all. I think what happened was almost inevitable, Lennie was never given help or taught how to handle his urges, we know Lennie's a good guy but a good guy who is capable of terrible things.]]> 2020-11-19 14:22:10 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941424393 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941427916 I think this chapter is sad because Lennie obviously didn't mean to hurt curley's wife but his fear of George getting mad at him made him freak out and accidentally kill her.]]> 2020-11-19 14:22:32 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941427916 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941438823 I think that Lennie only acted the way that he did out of fear for what George would think. Multiple times Lennie talked about how George was gonna give him hell and so he acted out of fear and unintentionally killed Curley's wife.]]> 2020-11-19 14:24:20 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941438823 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941453550 This situation is very unfortunate, yet something like this was bound to happen at some point. Lennie is a very good guy, but does not realize the amount of strength that he has.]]> 2020-11-19 14:27:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941453550 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941454117 I honestly feel like George is kind of instilling an unneeded fear in Lennie. Lennie was so scared that George was going to give him hell for not only accidentally killing the puppy, but also for talking to Curley's wife. I think that he didn't mean to hurt her, but he was so scared that he had to make her stop screaming, which ultimately did.]]> 2020-11-19 14:27:13 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941454117 2234212 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941454513 I think it's pretty crazy how it was Lennie feeling her hair to him choking her to death. It really puts in perspective how strong and how scared Lennie is of everyone else in his life. He was just trying to do what he thought was right so that he wouldn't get in trouble.]]> 2020-11-19 14:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941454513 21472 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941455090 I was shocked when I read the sentence that stated, "Lennie had snapped her neck." Throughout the entire book we know that Lennie would never want to hurt anyone on purpose. Curley's wife was forcing herself upon Lennie. He tried to explain to her that he didn't want anything to do with her, but she was so desperate for attention she put Lennie in an unfair position. Therefore, I think Curley's wife had it coming. ]]> 2020-11-19 14:27:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941455090 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941459794 I can not help but feel awful for Lennie. He was truly put into a situation his little brain could not handle. I was not expecting that at all! George was dragging his feet at the end of the chapter; therefore, I believe he is contemplating whether he should ditch Lennie or run away with him again. The ending of the book should be fascinating.]]> 2020-11-19 14:28:15 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941459794 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941467860 Well, even though Lennie never means any harm he is now wanted by Curley for breaking his wives neck in the barn when he was trying to hide his dead puppy. ]]> 2020-11-19 14:29:45 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941467860 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941478141 Lennie doesn't understand the power of his own strength, although this was an extreme version, could we some how imply this to our own lives? The power of our words or the power of our actions? ]]> 2020-11-19 14:31:39 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941478141 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941485333 Lennie acts as a huge kid when George isn't around, always panicking and acting impulsively; leading to situations like the death of Curley's wife. Even when thinking on his own its only about what George has said, primarily about tending to the rabbits on the stake they are going to buy.]]> 2020-11-19 14:32:59 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941485333 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941497611 I cannot even begin to imagine what Lennie was thinking when Curley's wife was being so pushy. He knew that he was not supposed to talk to her, and he tried to tell her that. When I read the sentence that she was dead my mouth dropped. I believe that in the end she had it coming because she was being very pushy on Lennie.]]> 2020-11-19 14:35:12 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941497611 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941522383 And just like that, dreams and futures crash to the ground. A running theme of lofty goals and fallen souls. Lennie is a gentle giant that can't be gentle. My sorrow is immeasureable, and my day is ruined. ]]> 2020-11-19 14:39:43 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/941522383 https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/944503689 George is unintentionally putting a lot of irrational fears in Lennie. If George explained more the situation to Lennie, he could've rationalized the situation better or controlled himself more reasonably. I also think it was very irresponsible of George to leave Lennie alone with no one to watch him. ]]> 2020-11-20 07:19:48 UTC https://padlet.com/kgeorge13/lhtbwrwagxqg9mnb/wish/944503689
