ReplyDeletei connect with this novel, when i wacth amovie that a boy was sent to jail because they though he kill somebody
Some food for thought while reading Monster...
ReplyDeleteStudents-Is it still a crime to be an accomplice to murder? For example, if you rob someone with friends and one of your friends accidentally kills or hurts someone during the robbery, are you guilty as well?
If you don't know the answer to this, look it up!
Also, many us of are able to consider Steve’s feelings while he is in jail, especially if we know someone who has gone to jail. How do you think Mr. Nesbitt’s family is feeling?
1)What happened in the exposition of your novel?A male name Steve Hermon is on trial for murder,and some people are asking him questions about what happen.

ReplyDelete1)This story is realistic. I know that it is realistic because the characters say things and do things that normal people do in the REAL world. Some examples are: playing baseball, having a band, or have normal problems like having to deal with someone who you don’t like.

ReplyDeleteSteve
Going to jail
Going to jail for robbery or murder
To seat in jail feeling like a monster
Feeling like you can’t do anything without people wants to hurt you
To go back and forth to jail and court
Go through a lot of testimony
Believe that he was included
Think that he was there but really was there
When he was doing his project
Found out that he not guilty
