Home Economics

What were your thoughts prior to eating/How did that change after eating: I thought that I would hate it, also that I would dislike that it had no meat. But after eating that I actually really enjoy cooking and eating The foods was good and if I hadn't made it I would have thought it had meat in it.

Why is it good to have one vegetarian meal a week: Vegetables are nutrient powerhouses and add color and texture to your meals. Try leafy greens such as kale, collards, bok choy and broccoli for good plant sources of calcium. plus it saves animals

Meat supply us with protein and iron give an example of a vegetable that offers this as well: Pea, BEans, nut, seeds, vegetables, spinach, kale, potatoes.

Star Wars is one of Auggie’s passions. Why do you think this is? Do you see any reasons for Auggie to identify with these characters, or to aspire to be like them? I think that Auggie passion is Star Wars because In Star Wars they cover faces with like Masks type of things. As Auggie is very embarrassed and ashamed when it comes to his face.

What questions did Julian ask August and why did August want to slide under the desk? Explain why Julian asked those questions? Julian kept asking a question about star wars mainly Darth Sidious because he has a messed up face just like Auggie

Mr. Browne’s September Precept was 'When given the choice between being right or being kind, choose kind'. I think there is always a time to be right and kind. Auggie position I would prefer to be kind to him Because his whole life people have been giving him dirty looks, Pointing him out to people, Talking about him wondering about what happened to his face.

In the chapter One to Ten, August is feeling mad with his mother but he's not sure why. Explain why you think he was mad? He got mad because his mum had lied to him about having to go to a public school.

August invited his whole class to his birthday party but not many kids came. Why do you think they didn't go? Some kids I believe actually couldn't make it but other maybe its because they didn't like Auggie, Maybe it was because of his face. Most of the kids in his class won't even touch him so I don't think they are going to go out of their ways to make it to his birthday party.

August says he has an 'Aversion' to getting his picture taken. What is an aversion? Why does Auggie have an aversion to having his picture taken? Aversion mean's to really dislike or disinclination something. In Auggie situation, his aversion is taking picture's and I think that this is because he is insecure about his face and what he looks like.


Why does no one want to touch August? How do you think this makes him feel? Well, I think that nobody wants to touch him because they might "catch his disease" With is actually impossible because he was born that way so. But I feel that Auggie much be sad that his own classmates wont even touch him and only go near him once the teacher tell them to.

Did your opinion of Jack Will change after August overheard him talking to Julian? Explain. Yes, It changed very quickly that Jack Will would prefer to be popular and hang out with people like Julian than have a good genuine friend like Auggie. I fell quite bad for Auggie because he feels like his own "friend" turns on him to be cool.

Do you think August will go back to school? Predict what will happen next?  Well if I was Auggie I would prefer not to go back to school but I think he will, I think that he will want to be strong and stand up for him self.

What was August's one wish that he wanted? If you could change one thing about your appearance what would it be? He would wish That he Had a "Normal face".One thing I would change is that about my self, is my height. But just like Auggie ignore it when people starting talking about my flaw.

What do you think it means to be ordinary? What makes August extraordinary?
In my opinion Ordinary Means "normal" and what makes Auggie Extraordinary Is obviously how he reacts to the faces the first impression from people about him.

How do people react when they see Auggie's face for the first time? How would you react?

When people first see Auggie's Face they look away straight away or down. If I was to meet someone with a "Different" face I would react the exact same way I do to any other human. (with respect)
August's dad said, "So sending him off to middle school like a lamb to the slaughter...." What does this mean? Explain. What Auggies dad was getting at was like basically, they are sending their son somewhere bad and he without know what is happing or without being able to help himself.

Would you send August to school if you were his mom or dad? Explain why or why not.

I would because it is good for children to socialize with other in an environment where they are all equal But the moment my Son or daughter didn't like it I would homeschool them but give them the option after they have experienced both

What white lie did August's mum tell? Why did she do it? Are white lies ok to tell?

Auggie's mum Told a white lie about a test the would declare whether he got into the school or no, She didn't tell him so he wouldn't freak out about having to go to School even if he didn't past the test.

Auggie decided he liked Mrs. Garcia ‐ when she wasn’t wearing her shiny smile. What is a 'shiny smile'? a fake smile meaning a smile that was pure not forced or pretend. I think Auggie like the shiny smile more because he knew that made her happy.

How does Auggie know the first time he meets Julian that he will be a bully? What are some of the ways that Julian bullies Auggie? How does Auggie respond? Auggie knows that he will we a bully because of how he treats others around him. Auggie was consistently asked rude, inconsiderate question about his face and personality.
