Orphans of the Sky

If you are reading Orphans of the Sky, post your comments below. Remember to post a comment after you read each third of your book. Each comment should include the book's title, the portion of the book you read, and at least 10 response sentences. (Take a look at the list of Response Starters on this blog.) Your responses should show that you are reading and thinking about your book. When you finish the book, do a Final response. (Refer to your handout or the copy posted on the class web page.)

    Your blog entries definitely showed that you read and understood the book. It would have been good to have a little more variety in your comments; many of them started with "I wonder," which is to be expected at times (especially in the beginning), but I'd like to see more conclusions and connections later in the book. Your final response summed up your basic ideas about the book well.

    All your comments show good atention to the book, though I thought you could have developed your responses a little more and perhaps had more conclusions about the action and characters. Your final response was thoughtful and complete.

    A human will eat Bobo? Why do you think so? Your comments were specific and clear. I look forward to reading your next blogs.

    This is another good set of comments. Be sure to express some conclusions when you get to the last blog for this book.

    You have some good specific comments, but I'd like to see more conclusions and observations at this point. On your final comment, you might also have mentioned xenophobia (regarding the muties).
