Who's View?

                                                                                                                                

Author’s note: I wrote this to tell the point of view in the story so the readers can understand the reason and point of view.  


In the book John Treegate’s Musket there is a fight between the mob (civilians,) and Redcoats (the soldiers). The story has characters in the story that are going through person versus person conflict. The story’s main character is Peter. As you read through the story you will read  through Peter’s point of view. Peter’s point of view makes the reader think what Peter is feeling, for example Peter feels that the fight between the Mob and the Redcoats are his fault, so the readers believe him. The readers think that the tragedy of Peter getting beat by the redcoats is wrong and the redcoats deserve to get treated bad by the mob for what they did. Everyone thinks that the redcoats are bullies and should be hung. When a fight breaks out in Boston, havoc starts after the mob throws snow balls at the redcoats. The redcoats start firing shots and killing people. The mob retreats with the dead and wounded. So the readers think that the mob should have not thrown snowballs at the redcoats. In the story you see that peter’s point of view about the redcoats getting hung is his fault, but the readers think it is not and it is in a way. The reason why readers think it is not Peter’s fault that the redcoats should get hanged is because the redcoat beat on an 11 year old child. The reason why readers think that it is Peter’s fault is because he was seen by civilians getting beat, and cause the mob to get so violent and cause so much trouble                                                                                        


After the massacre, people kept fighting the redcoats and having conversations about the massacre. Mr. Fielding (Peter’s Master) and Mr. Adams (old master of Peter’s) was talking about finding the boy who was seen getting beat on by the soldier (Peter). So Peter thinks that he will get hung for all the trouble that he caused in his point of view. The point of view makes the readers not believe that Peter would really get into trouble. That views the bias in the story. Which the bias is peter blaming himself in the story when he is innocent. And later on in the story the Redcoats might blame Peter for what did to make the mob start attacking the lieutenant governor. That might be what the readers think from the book. The readers will understand the mobs ferocity acting against the Redcoats.  


Finally saying that in another’s point of view like the Redcoat captain, that was beating on peter would have thought that it was peters fault that the mob attacked them (the Redcoats). When the captain would blame the boy, when it was the captains fault for the mob attacking the Redcoats. They would have never attacked the Redcoats and start the massacre if the soldier was not sawn beating the boy in the place. There tell the point of view

Johnny The Dynamic Hero!!!!


                             

 Johnny is dynamic character for many reasons.

The reason why Johnny is a dynamic character, first because he killed someone (a soc).And because of that he lost his innocents. But at the same time he was just trying to defend himself and Ponyboy.
 The socs were drowning Ponyboy. Johnny was just standing scared, and not knowing what to do. So Johnny stabbed the soc and killed him. Second because after Johnny and Ponyboy left the city Johnny rescued the children in the burning church, and risked his life doing it.


Johnny’s motives are good. Because again he saved the children in the burning church. And even though Johnny killed the soc he still managed to save his friend (Ponyboy) from being drowned.


Johnny is not like any other Greaser. One because he is a hero. And any other Greasers would have let the children burn to death in the flaming church. But Johnny didn’t, he went inside the church, rescued the children, then died after saving them. Two because he was scared of his own shadow. Other Greasers are not scared and they are rough and tough. And three because he changed people’s thoughts about the Greasers when he saved the children.   

Johnny was looked at like a hero because of what he did. Again because he was looked at like a hero because of saving the children and risking his life, and died.
But someone said “stay gold”.

Again any other Greaser would have just let him die. Also the including the socs.  He was looked at like a hero because of saving the children and risking his life, that making him a dynamic character.

That is why Johnny is a dynamic character, and a hero.

The theme of family


                                                Meaning of a family
                                                      By Zevion Flowers





The meaning of Family in “ The Outsiders” means that someone cares for you. Or if your friends take you in. If your friends treat you like their relatives. If your older friends treat you like their children, and set an example for you. Maybe if your friends take you in to their home. In “The Outsiders” your friends can be your family, and your family would not be your family.


 

In the outsiders some of the greasers in the story don’t really have a family. For example Johnny. Johnny ‘s  real parents do not  really care about him. His dad beats him and his mom does not care about him. Every time when he is at home his parents may also have a fight. Without his friends he might not know the meaning of a family. Johnny’s friends are like a family to him because they care for him, whenever Johnny’s parents kicked him out of the house his friends would let him sleep over their house. His friends take care of him when his parents don‘t. Another example is Ponyboy and his brothers.
When their parents died they only had each other, and the greasers. Ponyboy’s dad was Darry, and Ponyboy’s mom was Sodapop. But they still were brothers at the same time. Dally too had a family, the greasers. Almost all the greasers family is the greasers.



That is what family means in “The Outsiders. Johnny  being reminded of family. Dally being reminded of family. Ponyboy being reminded of family. Darry being reminded of family. Sodapop being reminded of family. And all the greasers being reminded of family.All because they care for each other. That is the theme of family in “The Outsiders”.

What I predict By Zevion Flowers In the story I read that Johnny had killed a soc. I also read that Ponyboy was involved in the fight with Johnny. And later on Ponyboy and Johnny had went to Dally’s party and told him what happened. After that Dally had given Ponyboy and Johnny some things, and told them about a church. Then Johnny and Ponyboy had brought a weeks worth of food. Then they hid in the church. Later on Dally showed up and gave Ponyboy a letter from his brothers. After that Dally asked if they wanted to go and get something to eat. So my prediction is that Ponyboy and Johnny is going to turn themselves in, because I read in the story that Johnny said he was going to do it when he, Ponyboy and, Dally was at Dairy Queens. I think after they turn themselves in I don’t think they will get in much trouble, because they only trying to defend themselves from the socs. After that I think the greasers and socs are going to get in a big fight for a while then makeup and become friends. Then I think the socs are going to forgive Johnny for killing one of the socs friends. Later on I predict that Ponyboy and Cherry will become a couple. But I do think that Ponyboy and Johnny will get in a little trouble. I also predict that Johnny’s dad is going to stop beating him because Johnny sticks up to him. And that the mother will start caring and support him or stick up for him. I also predict that awhile-later Johnny’s parents are going to get separated because of all the fighting that has been going on around Johnny’s house. Then finally I predict that Ponyboy will get back with his brothers Darry and Sodapop. I predict that Ponyboy will have a big fight his brothers, mostly with Darry .After that Darry will apologize for hitting Ponyboy and that the brothers will makeup and try turn there lives around.

My Letter


Dear Ponyboy

I am thinking that you are innocent because you were just trying to defend yourself. You and Johnny should yourselves turn in. I don’t see why you would be in so much trouble, but still a little trouble because you were on sides with the killer. Also I’m pretty sure your brother is worried about you. I know Darry is hard on you but that is just tough love he just gives. You should not be hiding. The only reason why Johnny killed the soc was because he was scared, and saw you being drowned. Johnny was losing his mind obviously because he killed a soc. But I bet he is home sick just as much as you are. Although I don’t think he really misses his parents. Also I know Sodapop must miss you too. And I wonder if Dally really cares if Johnny killed someone or ran away or not, I’ve been wondering if he really does. Just because he actually goes and take you and Johnny to lunch does not mean he cares. That just my opinion

Music is important to! (final draft)

Some people may not think music is important but it is. But that is why I’m going to try to convince you that music is important by stating a few facts. The whole point of being a musician is to entertain your audience. You please the audience by playing good enjoyable music. “Music is used to express people’s feelings”, people play music
to relax them. Music is used to be expressed in different expressions. For example, rock music can get people excited. Hip Hop music might make people want to get up and dance, or other music might make people feel depressed. Also music can also be used in movies, or videos to express different moments or moods in the movie or video. Now there are other reasons why music is important.

First “Life may be pointless without music”. Because again of expression needs to be made.  There will be no point of anything without any expression.  

Next thing is that making people happy by the type of piece you present to the audience.

And most of all being a musician is all about entertaining  the audience, because being a musician is not just about music but to perform for the audience.

So like I said the whole point of being a musician is to entertain the audience.
