Tomorrow, When The War Began Chapter Seven

Chapter SevenWhich people in the group are starting to stand out as leaders, is this surprising? Why/why not?

Ellie, Fi and Kevin I guess just because they sorta take

charge more than anyone

Do you think that taking Kevin’s dog Flip to Corries house was a mistake? Explain your thoughts.

‘we might have to make some ugly choices?’

Leave or shoot the dog
How is Ellie’s image of Kevin changing in this chapter?

Give reasons

They could find where everyone is plus if they get caught there’s still a chance for the rest
Why is it that Ellie’s group decides to act ‘illogically’

and survey the Showgrounds together?

They decided to go to the showgrounds despite seeing cars coming out
Why does the idea of a female soldier surprise Ellie?

Because It could not be as common in Australia?
If your parents were captured in a situation like this,

would they have been ‘sensible’, or would there have been violence? Probably Sensible
How is Ellie ‘transformed’ once she steps out from

behind a tree near the Showgrounds?

She was starting to become a better version of herself or become more knowledgeable with the situation
Ellie and Kevin’s quick-thinking allowed them to turn a ride-on

lawnmower into a bomb. Was this moral behaviour

? Did they do the right thing, or  should they have surrendered themselves? 

I think they did the right thing like they could’ve been killed
Predict what you think has happened to Lee and Robyn.

I think they’ve been or are in hiding
