The bullet

Today in Hur 2 we had to read a book of our choice and then answer some questions about it. That's what this blog post is about. There are six questions. Also the two main characters are Rodney and Charmaine. Here are all the questions from one to six in a row.

Do you think Rodney cares who or what the bullet was meant for? Why do you think that?
I don't think Rodney cares at all who the bullet was meant for and he thought it was really cool because he said to his sister said, "It may be dangerous!" But Rodney thought she was just being jealous.

What clues can you find in the text that will help you to understand why the boy might be with the police? Cause hes been dealing stuff he shouldn't have been. He was also trying to give a kid a cigarette and maybe had a whole gun in the car.

Why doesn't he look cool anymore? What has changed? He doesn't have the bullet anymore and he was only wanting to cool cause he had the bullet and he sort of wanted friends.

What is Charmaine's opinion of the boy? What does she mean by, "Guys like him"? Do you agree with her? Why or why not? I agree with her because the boy could not be doing stuff that is legal and might be dealing drugs.

What do you think Rodney has learned from the events in the story? Not to talk to strangers and don't listen to people who are trying to give stuff to you for money cause it could mean a bad thing in the end.

What do you think the author's theme or message was? What is your response to this? The message is not to randomly pick up stuff off the ground and not listen to strange people you don't trust. I really liked how they put the message in a story instead of doing it the boring way by just writing it down on a poster like thing.
