Chapter Eleven
1. How does Ellie feel as she is waiting in the truck at the Council Depot?
Where do her emotions come from?
Ellie felt cold, fear and excitement. The greatest of these was fear which comes from her love.
2. Why are the girls smiling when in danger? Is this a logical response?
They are laughing out of nervousness and at the way they are going about things and how everything is happening. I think it is a logical response because if I was in the situation I'd be laughing out of nervousness too. This is nervous energy.
3. What does wearing a helmet and buckling up mean to the girls?
The helmet can protect them from getting a far more worse injury than death.
It's the difference between brain damage and death.
4. What does Chris’s story say about the town?
Chris found lots of things that showed signs of suspicion like peoples homes been blown up or a car that crashed with dead people, but they didn't die from the crash because there were bullet wounds. Which says that someones come into their town and have attacked them. They spread out and killed people instead of just being at the showground.
5. What impact does the BMW have on the story? Does Chris seem lonely? Explain your answer?
The car helps them escape and the truck was loud and noisy which almost resulted in their death. The sound of the car falling into the river also brings Chris out of his hiding place, and if they hadn't gotten rid of it, it would give away their hiding place. Chris does seem lonely and he was a quiet person but he hadn't talked to someone in so long he became the life of the party.
6. What is Homer’s explanation for the need to swap cars at Chris Lang’s place?
What does this show about the way he is thinking?
If the soldiers find the vehicle outside Chris's house they might think there is a connection between the car and Chris's family so they could harm Chris's family. It also gives it away. This shows that Homer is thinking strategically and making sure they aren't leaving traces of themselves. Homer is also thinking ahead meaning he's putting himself in the enemies shoes and think about what he'd do if he was looking for people.
7. What are your thoughts on the story so far...
The story is becoming more interesting now because we are getting more of an insight to what everyone is thinking and also what the enemies are thinking like at first they were jumpy and a bit frightened too, but now they have gained a lot more confidence.

Art Term 3 Portrait
22.08.18
An Incomparable portrait souvenir has been STOLEN!!!
A day ago my artwork was stolen and snatched from its place without the frame. Displayed on the front surface of the page is a print of my past self and how I portrayed myself to look back then. Centred in the middle of the page slightly more to the right is where the head of my body on the Artwork is. Below the head is a polka dotted jersey with slightly more shadowing to the right and rough little linocuts on the left. Interfering with the polka dot jersey on the right is my long dark brown hair that carries right on till it reaches the bottom of the surface.
In the linocut, I have cut deeper in the left to help show the contrasting of the lightness and darkness on both sides. As I have cut deeper on the left I have made sure to do light little cuts on the rights side to make sure that the left stands out more and to help make it obvious where shadowing is. On the right side, you may not be able to notice the eye without the two slight little cuts I have made making sure I am outlining the eyeball without cutting too much away.
Without blending my picture into the background I have cut at least 1cm away from the linocut to make sure the outlines are still visible to the eye and so that you are still able to pick out each detail without ruining it. I have also cut at the top of the picture a nice vibrant cloud and small and deep cuts to show lots of different context in the clouds. I hope you are able to find my portrait because it would mean a lot.

Building a Volcano
Making a Volcano
Equipment:
1. Ice cream container lid
2. Plastic bottle
3. Scrap paper
4. Sellotape
5. Flour
6. Water
7. Plaster
8. Paint
9. kI+H202
Aim:
To create a volcano and then hopefully make it explode.
Method:
Put the bottle in the middle of the container.
Sellotape the plastic bottle onto the container.
Collect your scrap paper and scrunch it up, then sellotaping it to the bottle into a volcano shape like figure.
Get flour+water to form a paper mache glue.
Plaster the whole volcano.
Paint it adding texture to the volcano.
Add the chemicals to make the eruption.
Observation:
We took dishwashing liquid and then we added Hydrogen Peroxide and Potassium Iodide and we watched a whole bunch of foam burst out!
Here is a video of People making a volcano, sadly I was not able to find a video of them using flour and water as a glue.
For more information here is another blog post about Volcanoes go check out my other blog post with the link below :)

The Yellowstone is most likely to erupt in the future. It is one of the biggest volcanoes in the world and it can kill up to 87,000 people.
5. What happens during the eruption?
6. Does the sun have an effect on volcanism?
In the climate model, both the reduced output from the sun and the increased amount of volcanic aerosols {fine particles which reflect sunlight away from the earth and which are ejected into the stratosphere by volcanic eruptions} contribute a sizeable amount to the northern hemisphere cooling seen in temperature reconstruction, their relative importance depends upon uncertain estimates of exactly how much each changed relative to century later.

Chapter Nineteen.
1. What makes Ellie think the soldiers walking past them are professionals?
They were very frighteningly efficient in what the were doing. The soldiers reacted as if someone had push a button on their backs. They leapt around, spread out in a wide line and threw themselves to the ground.
2. What do the soldiers fire at in the bushes?
The soldiers were firing at a rabbit.
3. What are some clues that the group is starting to think ‘more like soldiers’?
The group are sneaking around silently. They're taking orders from one person and thinking more strategically. Ellie starts to think of where they can position themselves after seeing where the cars were coming from.
4. Do you think Homer’s plan will work? What problems do you think they might encounter?
Yes, because it is well thought out the only problem they could have is maybe not finding the equipment they need or someone doesn't follow the plan. Homer is taking notice of everything in the environment. He's taking note of little details, anything that can help them.
The cows might not do what Homer and the group expect.
Someone might injure themselves which will slow the plan down.
5. What does Homer suggest they do when the group goes up to the Heron?
Homer thinks that Lee and himself should use some sort of fire to make the cattle start running, and they decide to get a truck full of petrol and park it under the bridge then draw a line of petrol leaving them with time to run away and light the petrol. Making sure one person lights it while the other one runs in case she has petrol on herself.
6. What are his strategies to put his plan into action?
Pretty much the same as No.5 Just to like herd the cows into the direction they want too.
