WiT Chapters 9-10 Discussion Questions, Due March 25

Great job last week, especially on the proofreading!  Some of you still need to check your comments.  Let's try for no errors this week, and I will give you 10 points!


1.  Meg thought that everything was going to be all right once she found her father, but it wasn’t. Why not?  What would you do if you were Meg?
2. What  is " IT," and what does " IT" do on Camazotz?
3.  Why was Meg so disappointed in her father?  Do you agree with her feelings and actions towards him?  Why or why not?

  1. 2. "IT" is a disembodied brain. "IT" uses a hypnotic rythym to brain wash and control people on Camazots. "IT" makes all the people on Camazotz perfect and have no feelings whatsoever.

  2. Based on chapters 9-10, I think Meg,Charles, and Calvin weren't really prepared to face "IT". Charles was controlled by "IT" and Calvin, Meg, and Meg's dad bearly made it out of "IT"'s grasped while tessering. Meg barely survived when tessering. I think they should've gotten more information and preperation from Mrs. Whatsit,Mrs. Who, and Mrs. Which about Camazots.

  3. "IT" might be anything to do with doing bad things to people. Some things may include like brainwashing Camazotz or erasing people's feelings.

  4. Don't you guys think that earsing people's feeling's is dangerous? I think it is because if you cut yourself you wouldn't know and you could be bleeding to death!

    Abi i think your right you could hurt self into a fatal death without knowing at all.

  6. What I think " IT," is is a thing, or spirit, that is hypnotizing all the people on Camazotz from their emotions.

  7. Abi, I think you coulkd've been a little bit more specific, but I do realize what your saying and agree with your opinion.

  8. 2.It is a brain that I'd bigger than the average human. It brain washes the people of Camazots and makes them have no feeling or personality of their own.

  9. Kai, I can't agree with you because if Meg,Charles,and Calvin weren't prepared to go to Camazots ,then Ms.whAtsit wouldn't have had them go and leave them alone. I personally think it was a mental issue.

  10. I don't understand how the tesserimg of it could have a big effect on Meg but not Calvin or her dad, because Calvin has been there as long as Meg and her dad has been there even longer .

  11. Everything doesn't goes find when Meg finds her father because she could only see him and he couldn't see her. Also it wasn't like she could go in and get him out of his cell.

    If I was Meg I would go and tackle Charles Wallce then we'd go and find who ever has the keys to her father's cell.

    2. It is a brain that brain washes and controls people on Camazots. When they are brain washed and controlled by the brain the person controlled has no feelings.

    I agree with Abi about having no feelings can be dangerous. If you have no feelings you would not know the difference between right or wrong. You wouldn’t be yourself. There wouldn’t be a purpose for living. With no emotions you don’t exist.

  17. 2) It is a brain bigger than an average human. It controls everyoneone on Camazots and it doesn't like being rejected.

  18. I disagree with Kai because at first I thought Calvin, Meg, and Charles weren't ready to face "IT" either, but then I had to think "Why would make Ms. Whatsit send them off to this two demintional world with no protection or guidance whatsoever?" Ms. Whatsit even gave them powers. I think they were ready physically but because they weren't ready mentally none of that mattered. You can also tell that they were prepared because they had gotten this far.

  19. I'm still some what confused,is "IT" the darkness or is the darkness helping "IT"?

  20. 2. I think that "IT" is exactly that. "IT" is living nor dead, sort of a mixture. "IT" is unbelievably powerful, enough to take away the emotions of the people of Camazotz. I agree yet still disagree with Kai because could be a various number of things.

  21. 1. Everything is not all right because they still have to take care of IT.

    2. "IT" is a brain without a body that hypnotises people. Just like the people in Camazotz feel, it makes the people perfect with no feelings.

  28. " IT" is a dark force that likes control and to do things the way " IT" wants them to be done.
    I made an infrence about " IT" while reading the book and I concluded that " IT" probably had no power in IT's life. This is sort of like people do bad things in their life because of what happened in the past or what is going to happen.

  29. "IT" is a disembodied brain that gets people to do what he wants them to do. "IT" turns people into people with no feelings to understand what is going on so they feel like they have no life I know I would feel the same way if I had no feelings.

  30. I agree with Kai and Amari Brown about it being a disembodied brain that brain washes people to get them what he wants them to be.

  31. 1."IT" is an evil force that takes over your mind and tells you what to do and makes everyone and everything perfect.
    I have a question when do things turn positive.

    Well I think that "IT" was there and is still around. It is a power from the people of Camazots. I agree with Jerusalm that "IT" is living or dead, but a mixture.

  33. "IT" is like I sad before a force that takes over the minds, and then brain the people of Camazots. I think that in the end the evil willbe destroyed, but "IT" will still live on in Meg's dimension.

  34. It is a type of dark spirit that likes to take orsuck all of the feling or life out of tham. I think it also wants to have control over everyone soit's the most powerful thing.

  35. 1. They still have to take care of it and that's not good.

  36. Everything wasn't okay when she found her father because he didn't know what to do. He was captured by IT also. He also revealed that he didn't know what happened to the first guy that tried this experiment.

  37. Nakeya-

    The "IT" is, I believe, part of the darkness. The "IT" is the darkness.

    "IT" is the central brain of Camazotz it controls all of the people and their feelings, this makes all the people basically feeling deprived robots.
