1. Explain how a devil fish swims. How was Karana trying to catch it? Find a picture or video of a devil fish and link it.
2. How did Rontu get caught by the devil fish? Why are they dangerous in the water?
3. How did Karana help Rontu? Why do you think she didn't try to spear any more devil fish?
Chapter 20:
4. What are cormorants? Why did Karana kill them? Find a picture and link it.
5. What did Karana discover in the cave that made
her afraid? When do you think those things were left in the cave?
6. Why did she move everything from her house to the
cave at the ravine? Karana wanted to make it look as if no one had
lived in her house for a long time. Why do you think she did this?
7. What do you think will happen? Would you try to communicate with other people if they were on your island? Why or why not?
#7 I think some one will come to the island. Also I think that Rontu will get hurt by the wild dogs. If people were on the island I would not try to communicate because they might be like the Aleuts.
ReplyDeleteGood prediction! I agree, I think I would be leery to try to talk to strange, new people.
Delete#6 She moved into the cave because she thought the Aleuts were coming back and she moved everything to the cave because she wanted to pretend that no one lived on the island.
ReplyDelete#3 I think Karana helped Rontu because she cares for him and he has helped her too. I think she didn't want to try to spear anymore devil fish because maybe she didn't want Rontu to get attacked again, or maybe she didn't think it was worth it to do that again.
ReplyDeleteI agree! Seems like a whole lot of work, and not worth the risk!
Delete#2 the sucker fish is danger es because it has these sucker things that hold you and don't let you go and rontu got sucked in because he was swimming and hunting for the devil fish and then it came after him.

ReplyDeletethe devil fish swims does not swim with fins or flippers. He takes water in through the hole in the front of his body and pushes the water out behind through two slits.
Try to read the whole question! Insert a picture or video!

ReplyDeleteShe killed them because she wanted food for the winter the cormorants live on tall rocks.
Same as Maddie, make sure you read the whole question. Where is the picture?
