How do you work out which are the character’s thoughts and which are the words she actually speaks?  I work it out by looking at the words before it's said and looking at speech marks.]]> 2017-10-18 22:22:28 UTC https://padlet.com/tkuiti/xekhe9u6ohfi/wish/198476435 tkuiti https://padlet.com/tkuiti/xekhe9u6ohfi/wish/198477890

Finally, choose three questions to answer from these: ■ Why do Carly’s teeth chatter and click?  They chatter and click because she was scared and freezing. ■ Is this a good or a bad ghost? ■ What might “a hundred years’ worth of secrets” mean? How do you know? Why does she whisper them to Carly? ■ What clues on page 48 tell you Carly has changed? ■ How does Carly feel at the end?  Carly feels a lot better at the end because her broke and her throat is not as sore anymore. ■ What do you think might happen next?  I think that every night now the ghost will come back and haunt again.
