Tuesday, October 7, 2008 CLASSWORK Chapter 1 1. What problems or conflicts are presented in chapter one? Tao needing to find a rabbit is an obvious one; identify at least two more (not having anything to do with the rabbit!). Another problem is that if his clan catches him creating images he will be banished from his tribe.Another problem was that Tao had a really bad foot and he can't run fast enough. 2. Predict the resolution of each conflict? I think that he will have to hide his images, so that he doesn't get banished and still be able to draw. What I also think that'll happen to his leg is that it will get healed and he will be able to walk perfectly again.

CLASSWORK Friday, October 10, 2008 Answer the questions below Chapter 3 1. What do Tao and Ram learn to do together? What Tao and Ram learned to do together was that they learned how to be a hunters. 2. What decision does Tao tell Volt? The decision that Tao told Volt was that they should have wolfs help them with the hunting. 3. Look at Tao's decisions and actions from Volt's perspective. Pretend you are Volt. Write a first person paragraph explaining how you feel If I was Volt I will be real mad at him because his idea might fail, and the wolfs might betray them. Also another way that idea might fail is by if instead of the wolf helping them the wolfs might attack them. The last way Tao's idea might fail is by if the wolfs run away with their food and other supplies.
