Vocabulary Station

Oppressors:In my own words, oppressors mean to keep down by severe and unjust use of force or authority. Is the opposite of being tied up or someone forcing you to do something even if you don't want.In the novel,Nazis were oppressors to the Jewish. This picture shows how the guys are being oppressors to the lion.They want the lion to come outside no matter what.

Vocabulary Station

Chattering:In my own words chattering is talking really fast the you don't even understand what they are saying.Is the opposite of talking slow and understanding.In the novel,when they had to pack everything because the Nazis where coming they were all chattering about what they had to pack.This picture is of two people chattering about something.This women & this guy are chattering about how beautiful the day is.

Sumary
Well in this fewed pages they are staring to be hanging people.Everything is gettind worser in the movie and more and more people are getting killed.Also they were dieding of hunger & they were trying t find a least a peice od bread.In fact,one sunday while his father was working we other he got a chance to rest with other.Someone threw a bomb in the middle of the camp.It seems like they not even close to their freedom yet.

"If yo don't stop crying instantly, I will no longer bring you bread."

In my own words i think this mean the they dont cared if everyone is sofocating withut eating.Also the they could died is not like it rally matter to them.They werent important to them they just wanted to kill everbody & like they know they wouldn't stop crying they would manipulated them with the food.
Word Worth Knowing

Super Powers

If i had super power they would be to fly.I believe because i would fly around the whole world.Also because when someone is in danger i could fly and go safe them.In fact,if a plane is crashing i could fly and go safe the plane like super man.In other words,if an old lady can't go out her house because she is in a wheel chair i would fly with her to help her.
Therefore,every time i get in trouble with my mom i would fly away so she won't me.When my babe is crying and getting annoying i would take him for a trip so he could come down.Another thing is because i won't have to walk far.I mean,when i want to get quickly some where i would just fly and get where ever i want to get right away.
