Among the Hidden
Mary Petersen Haddix wrote a series about a dystopian world in which third children are illegal. Jen and Luke are such children. Their lives and experiences are very different, however, and their attitude toward changing that reality is, too.
In the last chapter, we discovered Luke's decision about the future. What is that decision? Do you think Jen would be happy with it? Explain.

Luke decided to go to a boarding school and I think Jen would be very happy because she always wanted to be free and have other to be free to.
ReplyDeleteFake I.D.?
DeleteLast word should be "too" as in "also.
Luke chose do get a fake ID. He is now Lee Grant, who is going to a boarding school for running away from home. I don't think Jen would be happy about this because she said that when the other hidden children said they would get fake ID's, she got really mad and said they wouldn't need fake ID's after the rally.
ReplyDeleteGreat detail and response!
DeleteLuke's decision was to get a fake ID in the name of Lee Grant Lee grant is doing this because he wants to make all the shadow children free. I think Jen would be happy with this because Jen wanted all the shadow children to be free.
ReplyDeleteYour first and second sentences need to be separated by a period, but otherwise, a good answer.
DeleteLuke decides to get a fake id and he gets the id of a kid that died in a ski accident. I think Jen would approve because she wanted the shadow or 3rd children to be free from the law that doesn't let them live.
ReplyDeleteThe fake I.D. doesn't really make him free, though....
DeleteLuke decides to get a fake id and he gets the id of a kid that died in a ski accident. I think Jen would approve because she wanted the shadow or 3rd children to be free from the law that doesn't let them live.
ReplyDeleteLuke's decision was to get a fake ID as Lee Grant which was a boy that died when he was skiing. I don't think that Jen would like the idea because she wanted 3rd children to be free in their own identity.
ReplyDeleteVery good. But if he was going to fight for equality as Lee Grant... would that make her happy?
DeleteThe decision is,Luke decided to get a fake ID so he would not have to hide his whole life.Also he wants to make Jen happy by getting all the 3rd children freedom.I think Jen would be happy with his decision because that is whet Jen always wanted.For the 3rd children to be free.
ReplyDeleteBe sure to add a space after your period. The fake ID is still sort of hiding, though.
DeleteLuke got a fake I.D so he can help make the hiddn kids free I think Jen wolld like it
ReplyDeleteBe sure to end one sentence before you start another. Why would Jen like it?
DeleteLuke's decision was to get a fake I.D. and I think that Jen would not be happy with it because she didn't like the idea of fake I.D. because she wanted to be her own person and be free.
ReplyDeleteNicely done. But if he was doing it so that he could end the law, wouldn't she like that?
DeleteLUke wants to save all the 3rd children so they can be free so Yes, I think Jen would be happy because she wanted to save all the 3rd children. Now Luke said he wanted to save all 3rd children.
ReplyDeleteHow is he going to do that? What was his decision?
DeleteLuke decided to get a fake ID and leave home and his family. I think Jen would be happy with him because Jen always wanted to make a difference and he got a fake ID to be safe but mainly to make a difference in hidden children's life.
ReplyDeleteEXCELLENT!!!!!!
DeleteLuke's decision about the future is to help all the shadow children. Jen would be happy because he would make a Chang in the world.
ReplyDeleteLuke's decision was to get a fake ID, so he got one. Luke is going to try to free all the 3rd children. Jen does not like fake ID's but all her life she has wanted to be free with all the other 3rd children.
ReplyDeleteWell done.
DeleteLuke's decision about his future is to get a fake ID and help make shadow children free in small ways. Jen would not be happy about Luke getting a fake ID, because she hates fake IDs she wants shadow kids to be free without fake IDs. She would be happy about making shadow children free in little ways,because she tried in a big way and she got killed.
ReplyDeleteABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT!!!!!
DeleteLuke's decision was to get a fake ID. I don't think Jen would approve of Luke's decision because she thought fake ID were stupid and useless.
ReplyDeleteYes, she did, but what about his decision to work in small ways as Lee Grant to help make them free? Would she like that?
DeleteI think Luke made the right decision when he made the decision to get a fake i.d. and Jen would have liked that he got a fake i.d. because jen wants the shadow children to be free and that's what Luke is going to do.
ReplyDeleteGetting a fake I.D. won't really make him free. ALso, watch your capitals. Proper nouns (names) should always be capitalized. You also could have broken this down into three sentences rather than one long one.
DeleteLuke is going to carry on the third children fredom so I think Jen would be happy with what he is doing because she died trying to save all the third children witch what he is doing.
ReplyDeleteGood response, but you might think about breaking up very long responses into two or three sentences. It would read better.
Delete"which" not "witch"
I think jen is not going to like this because she did not like the idea of fake IDS. Luke's dissension is yes he wont's the ID.
ReplyDeleteShe did not like fake I.D.s but he is going to use it to help 3rd children.
DeleteWatch your grammar, spelling and capitals, please.
Luke decided to get the fake ID and now he is going off to school. I think that Jen would be proud of Luke because she has always wanted third children to be free and now Luke is not free yet but he is helping third children.
ReplyDeleteGood. I am glad you mentioned that the I.D. won't make him free...
DeleteI think that Jen would be OK with the dissension that Luke gets a fake I.D and stands up for third children, because she wanted the third children to be free. But she did not want any third child to have a fake I.D because having a fake I.D means not being free.
ReplyDeleteNice response.
Delete"decision" not "Dissension"
Luke decided to get a ID.Jen would probably be happy for Luke because she told Luke that she had one.
ReplyDeleteShe did not. She had a pass. She hated fake I.D.s.
DeleteLuke's decision was to get a fake ID. Jen would not be happy with Luke's decision because when she had a fake ID she felt she wasn't in own family so she thinks Luke would not like it.
ReplyDeleteShe would not be happy, but your reason is not right.
DeleteIn the last chapter Luke did decide to get a fake ID.SO now Luke is now Lee Grant.I think that Jen would be very happy that that Luck is doing this because Jen really wanted Luck to go to the rally to help the other 3rd children but Luck could not.But now luck is doing this to help all the other 3rd children I think Jen would be really happy.
ReplyDeleteO.K. You have the right ideas here. You need to edit your work before you publish.
DeleteWatch your spacing after periods.
"Luke" not "luck"
