The Maze Runner-Jane'a Se' pa'e

what will Thomas decide to do in the Glade?
-Maybe he'll become a Runner since he's so interested in the job. EH wants to find answers and maybe becoming a Runner will do that job.

Problem and Solution

Ender got his own army, but in return, he could'nt practice with his launchies.

The Lean Mean Greenbeans 2.0 (Maze Runner)

We think problems in the story can be solved by sending everyone into the maze to find the exit to the maze. Although they might die. They can also spend the night in the maze to see if a hidden passage appears. Thomas could get bitten by a Griever (bug like machine) to regain his memory and figure out why the Glade seems so familiar.

Son of the Mob - What does the title tell us?

Title: Son of the Mob
The Meaning: First, we see the word son indicates that it is a boy. Mob indicates the family is associated with the mob.

This makes since because the main topic of the story is about Vince, the son, dealing with his family's involvment with the mob. 

The Maze Runner

  • How might we retitle the book? Why?
                    -The Cliff; it is a mysterious name that has to do with the ending
  • Choose a problem in the story. How could this problem have been avioded?
                    -Problem: Alby got stung by a griever
                     How to avoid: Come back from maze sooner
  • How might this story relate to your life?
                    - Life is like a box of chocolates; you never know what might happen next

  • Jessica's cousin has had headlice in the past.
  • Amanda can relate to the character Alex because she tries to give advice to her friends about relationships.
