When Stars are Scattered (Group B) - Discussion Question #1 - What are your impressions of the characters thus far? by Christine Sullivan https://padlet.com/csullivan16/zwyjv3m1zlfy4c80 Made with joy en-us 2021-11-01 22:41:03 UTC 2021-11-17 15:21:58 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f31f.png When Stars are Scattered https://padlet.com/csullivan16/zwyjv3m1zlfy4c80/wish/1881537289 I think Omar is a 11 year old that is kind and compassionate. I know that because on page 30, Omar did not want to go to school because he wants to take care of his little brother that has seizures.Plus, Omar never gives up. Like on page 46, Omar just found out (from his friend jeri) that all the classes are all in English so it would be hard for him. But he still kept going.]]> 2021-11-10 14:59:54 UTC https://padlet.com/csullivan16/zwyjv3m1zlfy4c80/wish/1881537289 https://padlet.com/csullivan16/zwyjv3m1zlfy4c80/wish/1881552773 I think Hassan is helpful and friendly. First, on page 7 it says "its takes forever to walk with Hassan bevcause he always wants to greet everyone" so he is very friendly. On page 8 it says "when he sees someone pushing a wheelbarrel he likes to help out" and "He says hello to the donkeys pulling the carts" this is why he is helpful and friendly. ]]> 2021-11-10 15:04:36 UTC https://padlet.com/csullivan16/zwyjv3m1zlfy4c80/wish/1881552773 When Stars are Scattered. https://padlet.com/csullivan16/zwyjv3m1zlfy4c80/wish/1881608756 I find Omar brave and caring. Because on page 30 it says "What do you think Omar? Do you want to go or not? I... but I can't go to school.Who will take care of Hassan?" This show that he is willing to give up his education for his brother which is a lot of care.On page 11 it say that he bad dream about his parent but, he is not crying mean he is brave.Because if I lost my parents even for 1 minute I start crying and screaming.So,he is brave and caring.]]> 2021-11-10 15:22:03 UTC https://padlet.com/csullivan16/zwyjv3m1zlfy4c80/wish/1881608756 https://padlet.com/csullivan16/zwyjv3m1zlfy4c80/wish/1881615648 I feel Omar is very protective over his brother.First,when Salan tried to get him to go to school Omar one of his major arguments that he needed to take care of his brother.I don't think a lot of people at Omar's age would say no to school just take care of his brother.He barely left Hassan until Salan convinced him to go to school. On page 22 and part of page 23 Omar didn't where Hassan was so he went to find him.When he found him he saw him getting bullied by Tall Ali and he protected him from Tall Ali by telling Tall Ali to go away and calming Hassan.That's a very nice brother.I don't think I could stand up to bullies to protect my brother.I would be to chicken. ]]> 2021-11-10 15:24:08 UTC https://padlet.com/csullivan16/zwyjv3m1zlfy4c80/wish/1881615648
