ANC- Connection 12/15

December 15, 2006

By reading this section in this story I have found many connections that I could make. The first connection I can make was that my grandpa and Mr. Furtz died in a hospital unexpectedly. Another connection I could make was when the Finneys had nightmares because they saw Mr. Furtz dead body. The last but not least connection I could make was when the Finneys went to the mountain as a family and had lunch when my family and I went to stone mountain.


ANC Questions 12/11

December 12, 2006

1) Beth Ann thinks that she is above the world ignoring Mary Lou just because she has a boy friend. Mary Lou  is upset about it because Mary Lou and Beth Ann were best friends and did everything together until Derek (Beth Ann boyfriend) come and interrupted their friendship.

2) She reacts pretty sad and upset. Because every time she walks outside she expects him to be their puttering around in his yard. But now she will never ever see him again.

So far Maggie was grounded for 2 weeks for getting home at 2 am from a party with Kenny. Carl Ray has to look for a job but can’t seem to find one until one week later after days of looking. Carl Ray began his first job working at a hardware store. Beth Ann got a boyfriend named Derek and is going to a party with him on Saturday. Mary Lou was in charge of cleaning the upstairs so she could not do anything until Carl Ray woke up. Unfortunately the Finneys next door neighbor Mr. Furtz died of what Mrs. Furtz thinks a heart attack.


ANC Passage Master 12/1/06

  On this particular passage or section on page 15 all of the kids are yelling at eachother because Mary slide the springs for the matteress down the stairs and cut Dennis on the knee. I chose this section because it will affect the story later on because all of the parents attention will be focused on Dennis. This passage is discussing how and who everbody is screaming at. I find this passage pretty easy to understand because it is telling why they are yelling at specific people.
