Include where the story is set, who the main characters are and what has been happening. ]]> 2018-03-13 00:26:03 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/241162366 26shiyeh https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/241166771 In these three chapters they talked about the main characters Oscar, Paul and their Mom Anyu. Sofar in this book they talked about their family going to the synagogue/church ( a place of warship and service to the Jewish)and the people in the church told them there was a curfew it was 5:00 and they had to sew yellow stars on their shirts. Also the place took in Karcag, Hungary and the year was 1944. Furthermore you'd think during the war the dad would stay with the family but because of the war the dad had to go to a Jewish camp. So sad... ☹️]]> 2018-03-13 00:53:47 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/241166771 26viviana https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/241167020 This book is about two boys named Oscar and Paul and their Mother. This story is set in Karcag, Hungary in WWII. Oscar and Paul are Jewish and the Nazis are occupying their country. In these chapters they went to the synagogue and were told that they had to sew the Star of David to their clothes and that they now have a curfew of 5:00. Also their dad had to go a Jewish camp.]]> 2018-03-13 00:55:14 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/241167020 26armaanr https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/241167113 The story is about 2 boys Oscar and Paul living through WWII. This is a holocaust story. Holocaust is a word is when the Jewish people got killed. They went to a synagogue (a place of worship) and got told to stay calm. They had to get off the streets by 5:00. This story takes place in Hungary at their house and some time in the synagogue. This is a summary and information on THE LAST TRAIN]]> 2018-03-13 00:55:40 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/241167113 michael_obrien5 https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/243139907 What are the tricky words from these chapters that you don't know? Look them up in the dictionary and write their meanings in the space below.]]> 2018-03-18 03:39:31 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/243139907 michael_obrien5 https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/243139919 What do you think will happen next in the story and WHY?]]> 2018-03-18 03:39:50 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/243139919 26viviana https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/243291020 Tricky Words:
Synagogue- A place where Jewish people worship.
Ghetto- A Jewish quarter in a city 
Prediction: 
I predict that in the next chapters the nazis will come and round up all the Jews and take them to the work camps. I think this because at the end of chapter 6 there is a knock on the door and it may be a German soider]]> 2018-03-19 01:16:02 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/243291020 26shiyeh https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/243291803

Vocabulary:I don't have any tricky words. There were one tricky word but the book already explained what it is. [ :| ; )  :( : 

Prediction: I think in the next chapter something bad will happen like the German soldiers might do something bad and violent or maybe something good and someone helps the family and gives them hope.

What I think is going to happen next is maybe the Germans will Attack lots of more people and alot  of people will die and maybe 2 two survivors of this book will be safe Big on a train.]]> 2018-03-21 00:54:23 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/244325500 michael_obrien5 https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/250958202 Sometimes items in a story are used by the author to symbolize something deeper. For example, a cupcake might symbolize a happier time before the war when people were free. What items have you noticed in your book that symbolize something deeper? ]]> 2018-04-12 00:28:26 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/250958202 26shiyeh https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/250968191 1, train. The train symbolises capture or incaged like your trapped because people are forced on the train and was ridden on it for hours without light. So you can’t see the outside world.]]> 2018-04-12 01:24:57 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/250968191 26viviana https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/250968340 One of the symbols I found in this book is ice cream and fresh vegetables. These are kind of like the cupcakes from Numder the Stars. This symbolises that they want peace  and for life to return back to normal.]]> 2018-04-12 01:25:49 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/250968340 michael_obrien5 https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/252811257 When something happens in a story, it could have a big or small impact on the character. But you yourself might have a different perspective because you are not living the character's life. Your life is different. For example, seeing some butter probably means nothing to you, but to a character in Number the Stars it is a big deal... Find a passage of text from your book and explain how a character's point of view might be different to yours, because of your different backgrounds.]]> 2018-04-18 00:42:03 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/252811257 26armaanr https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/252819134 Armaan
One of the characters points of view is Oscars and Anyus. Oscar is not that scared when he got taken away. And Anyus is that she is always scared and her voice is trembling. ]]> 2018-04-18 01:22:37 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/252819134 26lucasb https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/252819230 In the book, in one part it says they are somewhere in Australia and they thought they were very lucky because they where not in Germany. But now today Germany is just a country with no harm. Just like a normal place, but in the war Germany was one of the most dangerous places in WW1 and WW2]]> 2018-04-18 01:23:26 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/252819230 26viviana https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/252819404 In the past few chapters the characters in this book have been traveling to the concentration camps. When the soldiers came and rounded them up they are very, very scared. I would be scared too, but that probably will not happen because there is not a war going on.]]> 2018-04-18 01:24:32 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/252819404 26shiyeh https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/253243071 In the mom’s opinion they are going to die and in Oscar and Paul’s opinions they might survive and they still have hope while anyu don’t have hope left. If I was there I would feel differently because now we have better security so there is less chance for a war to happen.]]> 2018-04-19 00:56:14 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_obrien5/ywu4bxgv4pyu/wish/253243071
