T W T W B C H A P T E R 4


  1. Do you think the way they handled the snake incident was appropriate? What could they have done differently? Yes, because they didn't kill it they just left it to go back into the bush.
  2. Ellie claims that ‘Hell’ is only a label and that people label things all the time, often ignoring or overlooking certain labeled places or things. She then comes to the conclusion that ‘Hell was people’. Is she right? What’s your opinion, on labeling and Hell? I think it's a hard place to get to that's why its called hell but it could also mean that maybe hell was people.
  3. What was especially peculiar about the planes that flew over Hell? ‘Their ------, their ------, their----- frightened me.’ Do these characteristics have any significance?
  4. Corrie and Kevin are the only couples in the group, but the trip was bound to bring friends closer. So why does Homer’s interest in Fi seem so odd to Ellie?
  5. Fi brushes off the planes coming back from Commemoration Day. Why do you think the planes were flying over Wirrawee? To go to there hometown and destroy it and also began a war which could probably relate to the title of the book "Tomorrow, when the war began".
  6. Robyn claims there were dozens and dozens of planes flying over them. What is Lee’s response? Is his suggestion reasonable?

its not quite finished.

1) What are the advantages and disadvantages of first-person narration?
I think no because Ellie is not the only main character in this book so we might hear stuff from other people in the book.

2) Why do you think Ellie needs to tell the story in chronological order?
She is telling us stuff in order like she's going to start from the beginning.

3) Pick one interesting word from the chapter, find its meaning, and explain why it is interesting.
orgy - In modern usage, an orgy is a sex party where guests freely engage in open and unrestrained sexual activity or group sex.

4) John Marsden foreshadows several events and characters in this chapter. Make three predictions based on the evidence in the text about what may occur later in the story.

5) What kind of story do you think Ellie is going to tell? Uses evidence from the text to support your answers.

Today I learned about the 4 dimensions and the four walls and how they affect others.

My physical well-being is my fitness and I also have an injury. 

The things that I do well to look after my taha tinana is that I go to CrossFit to keep improving my fitness etc.

The things that I could do better for my physical well-being are how I eat like less junk food etc.

This dimension is one of the 4 dimensions that I don't need to work on my social well-being.
