final wave post

1. I think this quote means that you should never change yo self to fit in with a other group of people. a way i can apply this to my life is if a bunch of kidz and if some of my friends were smoking or drinking undera aged and you know its wrong dont do it to fit in with every one else



2. well inthe begging of the book robert was not so cool and unpopular acording to the other students. but i think once the wave stated to take off he becme mopre like the other studnts and he was a equal to them and he strated hanging out with the kids that were suposedly kool. i think he will still be consedrd cool because every one has seen his real side of him aa good friend and pretty cool to hang out with.



3.A...well the whole book is. cause mr. ross is in charge of every one but he wasnt really trying for it to be like that but its just how it turned out.



3.B...a example is when the country was segergaded still Rosa parks wouldnt move on the bus for a white man. it is a good xmple because the white people thought they were beder and suprior and every 1 has to look up to them. but now her in the presnt and for the future there a law about race well actully descrmation. but just because threres a law doesnt meen it still doesnt happen because descremation happens every were still.



4. mob mentality



per presure is pretty much mob mentality think you should always do what u think is right just because every one else is doing somthing before you do it ask your self is this right. do

OP #5

1. know question on blog

2. (meaning Adolf Hitler) "listen do either of you guys know 2 students that arent involved in the wave? 2 students who the wave never had and won't miss". that stood out to me the most from the book because it showed you how far the wave is going and how many students joined. all the students were hooked basicly but 2.


3. what did you guys think of the book???

OP #4

1. so i think that Ben is feeling kinda mixed up because when he first created the experiment he thought it would be a harmless class experiment. but it ended up being very chaotic and he quickly lost control of it. a small amount of teachers like the wave but many other teachers don't like the wave and he might be feeling kinda worried that it night get him FIRED.

2. this is the sentence that stood out to me the most "Come on, Laurie, the only reason you're against The Wave is because it means you're not a princess anymore." it stood out to me because Laurie got the same response from David that she got from Amy. also its funny because it shows how people are talking about the wave as if it was some kind of person.

3. How do you think Laurie feels and thinks about this? do you think Laurie and her friends are gonna try to stop the wave? if so how?

OP #3

1) when people were starting to ditch other classes to go into Mr. Ross's, is when da Wave was starting to go way control. Also when they had The pep rally change to da Wave pep rally is when i also it lost control. One other thing is that the kids answers are shorter.

2) "At which they will formally indoctrinate two hundred new members" (73 paragraph 3 ). so i chose this sentence because it tells how the wave is going probably further then Mr Ross had planed. its taking over the pep rally and there calling it a wave rally.

3) Question:Do you agree with da class about The Wave that it is a good thing for everyone or do you agree with Laurie's mom that it is not good 4 everyone???

OP #2

1) The motto 'Strength through discipline' is already going through the school already because in the class students are behaving and there disaplend. if the wave sperd to the football team the will go undafeeted and will probaly make history.

2) The sentence that really stood out to me was " What I mean is ," Robert said nervously, " the whole idea of The Wave is that the people in it have to support it. If we're really a community, we all have to agree" "(pg. 64 paragraph 2).well i chose this parahraph because they want there city to be perfect. also have no problems. But nothing can be perfect so we know that that wont happen.

3) What iz da true meaning for The Wave to be in effect??????
