Lit literacy.

Hi Bloggers, welcome back! How have you been? Here in NZ our quarantine level has now dropped down to level 3! Today in literacy we took a look at the theme home, after discussing it we had to answer a few questions, here are my answers.

Why did Oz never feel like home to the wizard? Why did it never feel like home to Dorothy?
I think oz never felt like home to the wizard and Dorothy because it wasn't where they came from, it felt new and uncertain, they never knew whether they were safe. The wizard felt like he had to become somebody else to fit in and Dorothy was super unsure of everything.

Dorothy travels a long way just to end up back where she started. Do you think she'd call her journey pointless? Why or why not?
 I don't think Dorothy's journey was pointless as she grew as a person, she discovered her likes and dislikes, she also helped others discover themselves. She discovered that she was a born leader, I don't think she had gotten that chance on the farm. She also made lots of friends and found a second family. 

Those are my answers! I quite enjoyed writing those out actually, it was really fun. What's your favourite thing to do at home?

  1. Hey Zoe, I hope you are having a great week! I love your answers to the questions about Oz and home. I particularly like you answer for the second question. It's so important to realise that even if you end up back where you started, it doesn't mean you wasted your time at all. Everything we learn along the way is what matters. It reminds of a quote I've heard before, "it's not about the destination, it's about the journey." This is definitely true in Dorothy's case! Keep up the awesome work. Caitlin :)
