Ablaze – Chapter 4 Reflection
Filed Under Silverwing Novel Study
This chapter was very exciting and we learned a lot about Shade’s character as well as many of the other bats. Some big decisions were made including that to save Shade’s life. The group for this chapter has chosen some key information from the chapter to share with you. Please look at their work and write a reflection on how you feel about the chapter, the characters, the novel so far or any personal experiences you are reminded of. This is a writing activity and you need to edit (spelling, grammar, upper case letters, periods etc.). This is due Thursday, November 20.

I think they did a good job on the pictures and information.
It looks like a lot of fun I am looking forward to doing it.
I really don’t have any personal experiences from this chapter. The characters are Shade,Ariel and Freida. I think that the chapter is very exiting because Shade tried to put the fires out and Shade getting everyone out of the roost.
I agree, it was very exciting when Shade was trying to put the fires out. How do you feel about the other characters you mentioned? Was there anything else you enjoyed about the chapter?
I’m glad you’re looking forward to it. They did do a great job! Can you tell me a bit about how you felt about the chapter?
I felt like I could feel the anger in the two elders when Frida and Bathsheba were fighting to give Shade up. My favrauite part of the chapter is when Ariel shows Shade the landmarks. When Ariel shows Shade the landmarks it remindes me of when my famliy went on a road trip and we saw all the landmarks like Dauphin’s Eager Beaver, McCreary’s Alpine Archie, Gilbert Plain’s golfball, Roblin’s diamond, to name a few. It was neat seeing all these gigantic statues. I wonder how Shade felt when he saw all the landmarks? It was exciting when the olws put Tree Haven on fire. When Shade slept in the barn it kind of reminded me of sleeping on the porch at my cabin because it is prety cold. I like chapter 4 because you feel like you are there.
This was a very exciting chapter. I think Shade was brave to try to put out the fire. He was also brave because he went inside the burning roost to alert the other bats. I believe Shade was very patient when he stayed inside the roost to help the elders to safety. I think that Declan, Ainsley, and Cassandra did a very good job at drawing and writing about the chapter. This was the most exciting chapter YET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The end. I hope everyone else enjoyed this chapter as much as I did!
I don’t like the part that the owls threw the fire at tree haven. Because the owls knew that the bats didn’t have a different place to live.
I think that there is a lot of colour I like that. i think you did a really good job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think that we did a great job on the poster. It almost told the story itself. I really like the pictures too.
I think this chapter was really exciting because Shade was trying to be helpfull by putting out the fire on treehaven.I think Shade was being brave because he could of got killed by the owls and that really makes me feel scared becuase I would’nt want anything bad to happen to Shade.
Wow! That looks like a lot of work! I think ABLAZE is a good title for chapter 4. When I first saw the title I thought of a big, huge fire. I never thought it would be Tree Haven!!!
I like those pictures. I like the slide show too. Any way, where did you get those slids???
I feel sad because shade’s home got on fire.I dont like chonech because he is mean.Nothing happened in my life that happened in the story.
I liked that chapter a lot. It was sad that Tree Haven cot on fire. I did not know if Shade was going to survive. But in the end of the chapter he did. I think it was good that all of the bats got out of Tree Haven safely. Shade had a lot of courage.
Was the ship Shade landed on a pirate ship?
It was not a good idea for Shade to not go on his mother’s back. His mom must be sad to lose Shade. Freida will maybe be sad to.
I think that in chapter 4 that Shade was tring to be tuff. Freida was nice to say that Shade was special and when she said that Shade wasn’t going to go. Freida didn’t let Shade go she said to Bathsheba that he wasn’t going to go I think that Freida was nice.
What a great reflection. I can tell you put a lot of thought into it and were able to make personal connections. Your trip sounds like it was fun and you were able to see many great landmarks. Did you worry about what the bats were going to do when Treehaven caught fire? I agree it was pretty exciting to read.
This was an exciting chapter, thank you for your thoughtful reflection. Shade was very brave, has there been a time in your life when you’ve needed to be brave?
It sounds like you were sad for the bats after they lost their home. I didn’t like that part much either. Was there a part of the chapter you did like?
I agree, the group did a great job. Can you reflect a bit on the chapter as well? Were there things you liked or didn’t like? What did you think about while we were reading it?
You did an excellent job and I agree that it tells the story. Thank you for taking so much time! How did you feel about the chapter?
Thank you for your great reflection. I wouldn’t want anything to happen to Shade either, that is scary. Shade was being very brave. Did you agree with his decision to try to put out the fire?
The group did do a lot of work. It was pretty surprising that Treehaven burned down. Ablaze is a great title, was there another part of the chapter that you liked or didn’t like?
The pictures are good. The slides came from the comic strip that is hanging in class, the group worked very hard to complete it.
How did you feel about the chapter? What are some things you liked or didn’t like?
I also felt sad when Shade and the other bats lost their home. Was there anything from the chapter that made you feel less sad? Thanks for the thoughtful reflection.
It was scary waiting to see if Shade would survive or not. It sounds like you were worried but relieved to find out he was ok, along with the other bats. Shade did have a lot of courage! Did you think of anything while reading the chapter? Great reflection!
I’m not sure…I guess we’ll find out soon.
I imagine his mom is sad to lose Shade. It will be scary for Shade and his mom. You’re one chapter ahead of us though. Can you look through the slides and talk a bit how you felt about chapter four – Ablaze?
I’m glad you think Freida is nice, is there anyone else in the book so far you really like? Do you think it was a good idea for Shade to try to be tough? Thanks for the reflection, you did a nice job.
I think that chapter 4 was a good chapter I thought Shade I like how Frieda likes Shade cause Shade could have been gone! I think it was a bit wierd cause Freida knew one of the owls. If Shade was gone was gone the whole story would have been wrecked!
But I’m happy they didn’t give up Shade.
I like the part that Shade tried to put out the fire, because he was trying to save his home.
I really like this chapter and I really liked the picture of the bats going to hibernaculum. Shade was so brave in this chapter I won`d never try to get fire out with my wing! (if I was a bat)I am also really glad I got to do this chapter I think that it is the best chapter so far!!!!
P.S I did the picture of the bats going to hibernaculum but i really do like this one alot.
Shade could have been gone, that is scary. You’re right the story would have been very different if that happened. It is interesting you thought about Freida knowing one of the bats, how do you think they know each other?
You did some great pictures. Shade was very brave, that is good thinking that you wouldn’t try to put the fire out. Why do you think this was the best chapter?
I think that this chapter was the best because there was so much going on. How the owls were coming with fire and then they put fire in tree haven and then they had to go hibernaculum.Ablaze was just so exiting.
P.S hibernaculum is hard to spell at school this is how I spelled it…..highbernaculam.
Hi mme I think that Freida knew the owl from when she was a little bat and got lost in the forest, and while Freida was in the forest she met an owl and the owl didn’t hurt Freida because she was small and maybe the owl was a nicer than the other owls.
I think that it was very interesting and told us a lot of information.
It didn`t really make me too excited but it was still cool.
I liked it when Shade went through tree haven getting everyone out.
It was exciting when we heard the owls were coming with fire.
The owls are coming with fire and burn down tree haven. If I was there I would run, because I would be scared of the fire.
I will draw a picture of Shade on a boat in the mist.
I thought that the chapter was exiting . I didn’t like the part when Tree Haven burt down. When we were reading Ablaze I fely like I was there.
I thought that it was great when Shade tried to put out the fire. I wonder how big Tree Haven was. When we read the part when Tree Haven was burning down it sounded like it took a long time to burn right down to the botom of a tree that was hit by lightning. I think that there are about 500 bats in Shades colnie. I think that they other bats in the colonie felt angry at Shade. I thought that the bats would not talk to Shade for a litle while longer then they did. In the chapter it did not talk that much about Chinoke in chapter 4. I wonder how many owls there were that bert down Tree Haven. When Tree Haven caght fire I thought the colinie would go look for a new roost and set off to hibernaculau later.
There has bin a time when I had to be brave it is when I had to climb a very very tall tree to get a football!
I think Shade was brave to try to put out the fire. But I dont like the Owl’s with fire.
I also think I WOULD NOT live in a barn.
No, I liked the whole chapter. But one of my favourite parts of the chapter was…
When Shade went through Tree Haven calling, ‘CLEAR THE ROOST!!’ I think he was very brave.
I REALLY LIKED DRAWING THE PICTURES FOR CHAPTER FOUR.
I like the book so far.
I would also be scared of the fire. Do you think Shade did a brave thing trying to put out the fire?
That could be a part of your presentation, you’ll have to talk to your group about it. Great thinking.
Why didn’t you like the owls with fire? Did you think it was fair of them to want revenge? What do you think their reasons were for wanting revenge?
I’m happy you enjoyed working on the project with your group. It was very well done.
The book has been very exciting so far. Do you have any predictions for what will happen next?
no I did not enjoy anything else about this chapter.
