Boy of the Painted Cave

What are you good at?

I am good at running

How would you feel when your doing the thing your good at?

I feel good because I like to win if I lose I will still be proud because at least I tried.

How would you feel if people wouldn't let you do the thing your good at?

I would be very disappointed because I really like to run and instead I will have to do something I dont like.

CHAPTER1

One of the problems is that he lost the rabbit from the clan that they were going to eat and another problem was that Tao had to be out of the clan until he found another rabbit, tao was very thirsty the days he was out of the clan.

I think the resolution will be that Tao will find another rabbit so he can come back to the clan and give the rabbit to volt.

CHAPTER2

What two imprtant events happen in this Chapter?

One of the events is that Tao when Volt made him go find another rabbit the next day it was the afternoon he didnt eat anything sinse the morning only some little grubs and another one is that when he was looking for another rabbit he saw a wolf dog and he was very scared of it and he thought the wolf dog was going to eat him.

CHAPTER3

I think taos actions and decisions arent good because he is picking really bad things like he wants to go hunting alone.Hunting alone is very dangerous thing to do especialy if your young because tao could get lost or an animal could do something to tao.If I was tao I wouldnt pick that I would stay with the other guys.I also think volt is saying that so they can bring more food for everyone.Volt isnt very nice to tao volt is always telling what to do like when tao lost the rabbit volt said he couldnt come back to camp ntil he found another rabbit so everyone can eat.That is what I think about Volt and Taos actins and decisions.

Tao and ram learn to hunt together so they hunt together so tao brings more food to the clan so they can more and volt is more happy.

Tao told Volt that he was going to hunt alone without the other clan people.

CHAPTER9

Why do you think Graybeard changed his mind?

I think Graybeard changed his mind because he thinks Tao should have another chance because he is treing to learn to do things like Toa wants to draw very good.

What does this tell you about his character?

It tells me that Graybeard is a very good person not a person that is very mean and doesnt let someone do anything.Graybeard is a sweet guy even if he sounds bad.

CHAPTER11

Do you think Graybeard is a good teacher?Why?

I think Graybeard is a good teacher because he really tells you how to do the drawings like he said to tao let your relax when your drawing.

WOULD YOU WANT TO HAVE BEEN TAUGHT BY HIM?WHY?

No because he is very mean like if your drawing he shouts no dont do that do it this way.
