TWTWB chp 13 2/2

“Paradise of Hell” is an oxymoron. What does it mean.---It is the opposite of hell while being in hell


Kevin’s hatred of the invaders is quite extreme. Why do you think he is so angry? because people are taking over his country that he loves so much and they are ruining it.


The group take turns discussing the extent to which they’d go to make a difference. Order the characters by their commitment to overthrowing the enemy?:


The group is starting to think about long term survival in Hell. What are some clues to this?


What does the group decide they must do at this point?


Despite the fact that the teenagers are in the midst of a war zone, evading enemy soldiers and planning guerrilla operations, they still find time to harbor romances. Do you think this is realistic?

TWTWB poem

From bright, humid days to smoke filled skies.
No one was aware of the governments lies.
But bound together from friendships ties,
Seven teens set out on a journey.

With little control of what lied ahead,
They joyfully laughed with little worry to shed,
But once home, with their animals found dead
They suspected the districts attorney.

After tears were spilled and the truth was discovered,
The group swore to rebel,
They planned out their methods and followed their hearts,
As they bid their safety farewell.

Injured and angry they fell to their knees,
Only to rise higher than ever,
They showed no mercy and bombed down the bridge
And they swore to rebel forever.

TWTWB can-do questions

Musical -
Fi play list:
Tagpuan - Moira dela torre
Oks lang ako - Jroa
wala na bang pag-ibig -jaya

Homer play list: 
Danger - BTS
Boy in luv - BTS



Fi play list - i choose Tagpuan by Moira dela torre because since Fi is a passionate and loving person i think Tagpuan would be a great choice because in the song the lyrics -
Nung nakita kita sa tagpuan ni Bathala
May kinang sa mata na di maintindihan
Tumingin kung saan sinubukan kong lumisan
At tumigil ang mundo
Nung ako'y ituro mo
At hindi ka lumayo
Nung ako yung sumusuko
At nagbago ang mundo
Nung ako'y pinaglaban mo

which in english these translate to 

When I saw you at Bathala's meeting place
There was a spark in your eyes that could not be understood
Looked towards where I tried to leave
And the world stopped
As you lead me
And you did not go away
When I was the one giving up
And the world changed
When you fought for me

Words from TWTWB that i don't know and the meaning/definitions

Chapter 10 words I Don't know + the meaning. 
Crude- Something That is badly made or hastily put together and when you talk to someone and you say something rude 

Abreast - Side by side and facing the same way.

Tomorrow when the war begins chapter 10 answers

1. Hide and not get caught by the soldiers. Homer convinced corrie not to take the Toyota because the soldiers might have seen it from the air and if they saw it missing they could suspect something and track them down.

2. If they get to a corner Ellie would get off the bike and look around to see if it was safe to keep going

3. Maybe he wanted to keep himself safe or has family members that are hurt or something and wanted to get some stuff and run back home to the family. I think he was a bit rude for not helping out a patient that was in need of being taken care of. 

4. He has changed from the class clown to a leader and has stopped his joking around and helps with the group 

5. Experienced and Inexperienced - The experienced soldiers treated the inhabitant with a bit more respect than the Inexperienced soldiers. The Inexperienced soldiers treated them unkind and didn't show them any respect

6. Robyn had strength to carry Lee because she had the adrenaline and wanted to help a friend and not be selfish and leave a friend behind

7. They decided to rescue Lee by carrying him in a bulldozer. I think this will work because while he is in the shovel they can carry him without worry and get through places where they might get caught on foot.

8. Some people try to act like heroes then they become cocky sometimes they get caught and taken into treason or some others might be taken to the extreme by being shot on the spot. 

Power of one seel paragraphs

In the power of one close up was used effectively. For example the director john avildsen used a close up to show the anger in jappie bortha when he got in trouble by the owner of the school. The director did this to show how furious Jaapie botha was with P.K. This technique created an impact by showing the audiences that Jaapie had an intention to kill P;K and all english. This Technique can be shown in the seen where Jaapie gets hit by the owner of the school for his stupid acts


In the power of one long shot was used effectively. For example when P.K was in the graveyard saying goodbye to his chicken that jaapie botha killed with a stone . The director used this to show where P.K was and how sad he was by the way he posture is. This technique created an impacted on the audience to show that jaapie botha will do anything to make P.K suffer.This Technique can be shown in the seen where P.K is in the graveyard where his mum and chicken got buried.



In the power of one low angle shot was used effectively. We see this when P.K was trying to do a task his grandfather's friend asked him to do it was a task to mad sad boys happy. The director used this to show how P.K tried his best to be happy again. This technique created an impacted on the audience to show that P.K wanted to be happy again by trying new stuff and listening to his grandfather’s friend. This Technique can be shown in the seen where P.K was standing on a little fence made out of blocks while saying weird stuff.

SEXXY paragraphs

In English, we have been learning how to write SEXXY paragraphs we used the movie the power of one to write about this is the paragraph we wrote

Statement: The director uses long shot to show that the guard knows Geel Piet is up to something

Example: The long shot shows both sergeant Bormans legs in the foreground and Geel Piet in the background we also see borman’s baton in his hand

Explanation (directors purpose): The director intended to show sergeant Borman’s violent intentions towards Geel Piet

Explanation(of effect on audience):  This made the audience suspect that sergeant Borman was going to hurt Geel Piet Which made the viewer feel tense

Link: This aspect can link back to one of the main ideas in the film which is the unfair treatment of Black Africans in south Africa

Reflection in english

I was walking through the park while the sun was setting and the sun rays shone through the trees. While I was walking took off my shoes and continued walking on the soft green grass. The air smells like the countryside. The birds were singing a song it was beautiful. I saw a bento truck I had a couple of dollars left and I bought a bento box and it was like I never left Korea.
