Evan Hussey #9 6S chp. 2

Do you think King Christian did the right thing when he surrendered to the Nazis?Why?* Would you be willing to die to protect the leader of your country? Why?
 * What happened to Annemarie's older sister Lise?
 * How has Annemarie's family changed after the death of Lise?

1. Yes I think King Christan did the right thing by not fighting the Nazis because many lives would have been lost from the Danish people. The Nazis also had a lot bigger army so King Chrisitan's army would have died. 2. I wouldn't be able to die for my leader because I don't feel that stong of feelings for him but I would probably die for my family. 3. Annemarie's sister Lise died three years ago when Annemarie was really young. 4. I think Annemarie's family has changed because instead of three daughters they only have two now and Annemarie's parents never spoke of Lise. Papa had changed by feeling very tired all the time.

It was also close a port and close to Sweden

Chp. 10 1. The familier phrase in the psalm was "Number The Stars." 2. I think the people at the wake felt scared because of the Nazis and tired because it was late at night. 3. Mama kept the soldiers from opening the casket by telling them that they could still get sick from the disease Aunt Birte had, typhus. She also agreed to open the casket. This made the soldiers less suspicous. 4. Annemarie's reaction was that she didn't think that it was posible to count all of the stars. The significance in the title of the book is that it is Number The Stars. You cannot count all of the stars in the sky just like you cannot catch all of the Jewish people. chp. 11 1. A casket is a big box where the dead person is in. The question is what is IN the casket? 2. Peter insisted on giving the baby medicine to keep the baby asleep. 3. If Annemarie knew more than what her mama told her if she ran into soldiers, it might have been harder to be brave than if she k new less. 4. Annemarie's mother asked Annemarie if she wanted to go to bed because it was late, but Annemarie wanted to stay up to hear what the adults were talking about. chp. 12 1. Yes, I think she will meet soldiers on the way to the boat and not know what to do. 2. Annemarie made the observation that it was harder for the people waiting because there might have been less danger but more fear. 3. Annemarie worried about her mom because she knew her mom would usually be home by now. chp. 13 1. Annemarie volunteered because her mom had broken her ankle and the packet had to be delivered to Uncle Henrik. 2. Mama didn't tell Annemarie what was inside the basket because it would be easier if the soldiers stopped her and she didn't know what was in the packet. chp. 14 1. Annemarie acted like Red Riding Hood and the soldiers and dog were the wolf. 2. Annemarie confronted the soldiers. She had to act like a little girl so it didn't look suspicious to the soldiers. Chp. 15 1. What is your reaction to how the soldiers treated Annemarie? 2. List three times when the German soldiers are rude to Annemarie. 3. Why does Annemarie act like Kirsti? 4. Did anything Uncle Henrik tell Annemarie surprise you? What?

1. I thought they treated Annemarie unfairly and very harsh. 2. They are rude to Annemarie when they don't believe that she is taking her Uncle Henrik's lunch to him: they ruin the bread and throw it on the ground, and they throw the apple on the ground. 3. Annemarie acted like Kirsti because she knew they would just think it's just a little girl giving her uncle his lunch and not a brave girl sneaking something to her uncle. 4. It surprised me when Uncle Henrik said to Annemarie that he would see them tonight. chp. 16 1. How does Uncle Henrik define “brave” to Annemarie? Based on this definition, is Annnemarie be considered brave? 2. What secret information does Uncle Henrik share with Annemarie about the Rosens? 3. Describe something funny that happens in this chapter. 1.Uncle Henrik defines brave as not thinking about the dangers and just thinking about what you need to do. 2. The secret was that the Rosens were hiding in storage underneath in the boat and about how the handkerchief didn't allow the soldier's dogs to find the Rosen's on the boat. 3.Kirsti said, "I'm going to be a nurse when I grow up. Not a cow milker. So I have to stay here to take care of Mama." chp. 17 1. They entered each empty apartment, opened a window, and hung a symbol of freedom. It was a flag. 2. Peter was shot. Lise was hit by a car. 3. Annemarie hid Ellen's necklace in Lise's yellow dress in the trunk.

1. Denmark surrendered to Germany in 1940 because the country was small and had no army of any size. 2. King Christen rode alone on his hourse from the palace every morning, ungarded, and greeted his people. 3. Sweedish sientists invented a handkerchief with powerful powder made of dried rabbits blood and cocaine. The handkerchief pervented the soldiers from finding the jews They actually were refugees. You needed to quote a line from the chapte for this answer. The question is what is IN the casket? k Good job, Evan. Some of your answers didn't quite match the question, though. Also, be careful of spelling. B+
