My groups discussion has helped me a lot by making sure that I stay focused on the book and share my feelings about the book. For example I do not understand some parts of the book since English is my second language. Also I have some difficulties with understanding grammer so if I talk to my group about it and then they can explain it. Sometimes in my literature circles I like to ask questions that foreshadow the story. Group discussions help me understand the book because I get to share my feelings and my inner comments about the book. I sometimes have millions of ideas coming to my mind and I know that I can tell my group and they will not think it is weird or crazy.
In my group we have some connections and we don't. Sometimes what happens is that someone says a comment or asks a question and then everyone agrees with them. For example in our discussion a few days ago I had a few questions on the first few chapters of the book and then everyone agreed with me and they also had the same questions. The important passages are usually the same in our group since they are most noticed to everyone and everyone can tell that those are the most important passages. Vocabulary has a wide range in it so most of the time nobody has the same vocabulary words. All in all my group and I have a lot of connections.
There are a lot of things that I predict for the next chapters. One of them is that I think that Captain Jaggery is evil and he wants to do something to or with Charlotte. I thought that Zachariah was weird or bad since he gave Charlotte the knife but actually he is good and he gave her the knife to protect herself from Captain Jaggery and other bad people on the boat since he has worked on the boat for a long time. Another event I predict to happen in the future is that Captain Jaggery gets defeated by the crew and Charlotte(since they work to get revenge on Captain Jaggery) and that because he got defeated he will accuse Charlotte to have murdered someone. Those are a few predictions I have for the future of "The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle".
