Tonight for HW the students are to read chapter 9 of Touching Spirit Bear and respond to the following questions:
Chapter Nine
Cole is lying at the mouth of the bay as the chapter opens. What is the one end he believes he will come to?
Cole is obviously injured badly as he lies there on the edge of the bay. What other conditions make this even worse for him?
Cole's bitterness and anger actually helped him keep from losing consciousness during this time. He was watching baby birds. What did he think he would do if he were the mother bird? Why did he feel that way?
Cole loses consciousness again and wakes up after dark. What does he see in the darkness of the storm?
What were the prickling sensations he felt through his body?
The storm rages on and on until finally lightening strikes right beside him. What does it hit and what happens?
What do you think Cole is learning from the attack and the storm?
The author says that Cole had to focus on the moon to help him "remain on this side" What does he mean by that?
Cole tried to remember what Garvey and Edwin had said about circles as he watched the moon. What had they told him?
What does Cole do at the end of the chapter that tells the reader he is beginning to learn and grow?
