OP#1
2. The relationship between yoko and ko is a fairly well one. I mean they're not the best sisters in the whole world but they're not the worst either. Yoko and ko can bicker at times but they do love each other. Yoko calls ko bossy because she's ordering them around alot and ko thinks that thats mean. An example from the book might be: "you've go to" ko said bluntly. "don't talk, just walk!" She was getting very bossy.
3. The kawashima reacts differntly to the patients. Yoko is afraid of them. Ko like to help, for example Ko let another patient borrow her blanket. The mother is also very nice to the patients, she gives them food and orders yoko to give the other mother the blanket.

Final
2. At the begining of the book he was a shy lonley character unliked by anyone the "class freak." When the wave first started he was one of the few to get the pose right. He then after a while asked Mr.Ross if he could be his body guard which showed how seriously and important this club was to him. In the end he was really sad that the one thing he had treasured, that had made him an equal was gone.
3.
a. A example was that Mr.ross was a idol everyone did what he did without question of his power.
b. Kim Jong-il, he may seem like a god but pictures of his victims hardley come on the news. Yet the 63-year-old leader is responsible for the deaths of four million of his citizens. If one includes the dead in the Korean war (1950-1953) and those who have died in labour camps since 1945, Kim Jong-il and his father (dad) Kim Il-sung are responsible for nine million deaths. Measured against the size of the North Korean population, the dynasty has outdone better-known Asian tyrants such as Pol Pot or Mao Zedong.
4. “Avoiding Mob Mentality: A Practical Guide by A Middle Student, for Other Middle School Students.”
Some of ways you can avoid getting caught up in a mob is stay aware for signs of students threating other students to join. don't join a group unless you no where it leads to. Another thing you have to watch out for peer pressure. The last thing you should watch out for is a leader trying to take over.

2.My favorite sentence was: ' You don't have to worry about how popular You are. We're all equal. we're all part of the same community. I liked this passage because it really shows that now istead of the students worrying on thier social life they'll now worry about school and grades. Also now that they are all equals they will really start to support eachother.
3. My question was: Do you think that the pep rally will get more members for the school or that hardly anyone will join?

OP2
2. a short passage that stood out to me was: 'For Ben, what happened the next day was extremely unussual. Instead of his students straggling into class after the bell had rung, it was he who was late.' This passage stood out for me because it seemed preety funny that instead of his student being late it was him who was late.
3. A question i had was, Do you think that the students are taking this too seriously? Or would you have done the same in their place?
