First Connection (Text to Self)
In the text Thomas says he knows the caves where they hide in and that he explored them when he was younger. I can relate to that because when I go camping with my family we a lot of the time we’ll bring my bike with us and I’ll spend the majority of the weekend riding around the campground learning the trails. I remember them so well I know where they lead just like Thomas know where the caves lead to. This helps me knows how it feels to know a system of trails/caves.
Second Connection (Text to Media)
When I read this book it reminds me of Assassin’s Creed Rogue. It reminds of Assassin’s Creed Rogue and in the game you can rob supply depots and take the supplies from them to upgrade your ship and other buildings. In the book the Canadians robbed a blockhouse and take most of the supplies. It also reminds me of the scenery in the game too. This connection helps me visualize what it looks like and what it’s like to rob a supply depot.
Third Connection (Text to World)
In this book when Thomas saw the dead body he wondered what the guy’s family would react when they found out that he was dead and what they would do. In the world when people die in a war his/her fellow soldiers also wonder what is going to his/her family reaction going to be and what they were going to do about it. This connection helps me visualize what he was thinking.
Fourth Connection (Text to Self?)
In the book Thomas also hoped if his father was ok. This reminds me of my grandpa, his brothers, sisters (the ones who were born before 1945) and his mother because his father went to join the war effort in WWII and they probably worried everyday waiting for news that he was ok and would come home safe. This connection helps me form an opinion on what it would be like to hope that your father was ok.
