I think that in this chapter Clara Barton gets shot by a musket and injured and that Jack and Annie help her back to camp. I wonder if her wagon was damaged by a shell from a cannon? Do the horses drawing the wagon get spooked and run off?
When I was done reading I had some questions.
Was the gun used was an accurate rifle or an older type smooth musket?
I think it was a modern rifle since no one noticed any soldiers nearby so the shot came from far away.
Was the wagon Clara was driving strong or weak?
I think it was strong since it had to go through battlefields.
When I first saw the word "wounded" I had trouble pronouncing it.
Neil,
ReplyDeleteI am wondering why you made the prediction about Clara getting shot. What made you think that? I am also wondering what made you ask the question about the rifles and how you inferred which one was used. I want to see the thinking behind your thinking! :)
