1. One way that shows that Mr. Ross's experiment is going out of his control is that the kids in his history class are starting to do things without him telling them to do. For example, when he told them to say the pledge and do the salute they chanted the motto a little bit more even though he didn't tell them to. Another way that the experiment is loosing control is that some people, like Laurie and her mom, are starting to doubt it. One other thing is that the kids answers are shorter so, like Ben said, the class probably wouldn't be that good at a written answer test with essays as a multiple choice test.
2.The scentence that stood out to me the most was: "If Robert couldn't function in the school before The Wave, he won't be able to function outside the school where The Wave doesn't exist." This scentence stood out to me because I never thought about The Wave like that before I read this part. As I was reading, I was also trying to figure out what was bad about the experiment just as Laurie was until her mom said this. It really made me think about what could go wrong in this experiment.
3. My question: Do you agree with the class about The Wave, that it's agood thing for everyone, or do you agree with Laurie's mom, that it's not so great for everyone?

2) I agree with you of what you said of what you tought about The Wave. When I read that sentence I didn't think about the Wave like that either.
3) I kinda agree with Laurie's mom, that it's not so great for everyone. Most people rely on the Wave a lot so where the Wave doesn't exist, they can't rely on anything much.
1.yes I agree with you about Mr.ross is loosing controll because they are starting to do strange things.
3.I do not agree with the class because it is a brainwash so I agree with lauries mom.
1.I agree with you about how Mr. Ross is slowly losing controll of The Wave.
3. I think that it is a little bad because if people get so used to the wve they will not know how to let go, once it is over
i like what you got for #2 i never thought of it that way.
3. i think it is a good because it is a project but the teacher is making it a fun project and they are still learning about world war II.
#2 Robert doesn't need the wave. To me he just needs to try.
#3 I agree with Lauries mom because the wave its like your controling people.
1: I liked how you said different ways of how it is losing control. I agree with all of them pretty much.
3: I agree witrh her mom on that because it is not so great for everyone.
