  1. 1)Meg thinks that the Man with the Red Eyes is speaking through Charles. I think that when Charles was hypnotized by the stare, the stare made the Man with Red Eyes the controller.

    3)I think that IT is the Man with the Red Eyes.

    1. I agree with both of Crystal's comments. I think "IT", the man with the Red Eyes, is hypnotizing charles which is why he was quiet on the way up the mountain in chapter 5.

  2. 2. How do they make sure that no one suffers on Camazotz? What do you think about this practice?

    The way that they make sure that no one suffers on Camazotz is by executing people. This means that they kill them. I think that this is a cruel thing to do. Just because someone gets sick or has a little cough or running nose doesn’t mean that they are suffering. When you are sick, people do not have the right to kill you. You have the right to do what you want with your life.
    If this practice was still continuing today, what would you do? Would you accept it?

    1. If this practice continues today, I would move somewhere else and take my family with me. NO, I wouldn't accept because I wouldn't want to be killed for "suffering". I would want to live life until it's my time to leave this Earth. I'm pretty sure no one would like to be killed for someone else's definition of suffering.

    2. If this practice continued today, I would take my family and move to another place. NO, I wouldn’t accept it because I wouldn’t want someone to take my life because of their definition of suffering. I’m sure no one would accept it because they would like to wait their time to leave this Earth.

    3. If this continued today, i would either live in hiding or move somewhere else with my family. Killing people when they suffer is wrong, and it is also inhumane. There is only one situation where i would want myself or anyone (including my pet) to die when they suffer. That is if they are in unbearable pain and they are slowly dying with no ca=hance of a cure or lofe. Then, i would want them to die quickly so they dont endure this pain anylonger and go to a better place.

    4. If this were to continue until today I would block my windows with wooden boards. Then I would put all the heavy furniture on the doors and then I’ll be in hide under my bed for a couple of days. If I wanted to get out the house, my family and I could live in our car and so if we were chased down we could have a better chance of getting away. This is not right in my option because killing is not the right thing to do in those kinds of situations.

  3. I think IT is a central brain for all the people in the city of Camazotz. IT has a special connection to everyone in the city of Camazotz. People who try and fight IT will not succeed in doing so.

    1. I disagree with Kendel I think it is the man with the red eyes.

  4. 3. What do you think "IT" is?

    I think the IT is the man with the red eyes. I think the main with red eyes or IT is imprisoning Meg's Father and making him fight the Black Thing. I believe that the man with the red eyes has a lot to do with the Black Son. I also think that IT is a powerful force controlling all the people on Camazotz and making them do everything in the pattern that they do. I agree with Kendel when he said " people who try and fight IT will not succeed in doing so". I think the IT is in some way, sort of hypnotizing the people on Camazotz.

    1. I agree with Ciera. They probaly don't have a name for the object IT. But IT is probaly an alternative or nickname for The Dark Thing.

  5. What does Meg think has happened to Charles Wallace? What do you think has happened to him?

    I think that Meg thinks that Charles Wallace is being controlled by the man with the Red eyes. She thinks that tha man with red eyes has broken into Charles Wallace's mind and has taken over.

    I think that Charles Wallace is beeing controlled, but the man with red eyes used his eyes to controll him. I think this because his eyes have to be red for a reason, and that is why.

    1. I agree with Justin because The Man With Red Eyes is very smart and tricks people. He probably got into Charles Wallace's mind and Charles is struggling to break loose of the hypnotism.

    2. I agree with Justin because meg could not shake out the hypnotized of the man in Charles . meg kept on trying to bring Charles back but it would not work.(she kept crying and asking questions about her little even know he was hypnotized by the man with the red eyes).

  6. 3. I think IT is their central government. IT is probably why everything is done almost at the same time. IT probably brain washes people to have them so ''perfect''.

  7. What does Meg think has happened to Charles Wallace? What do you think has happened to him?

    I think Meg see's or senses the Red eyed man. Or maybe senses that he is mental. She think that the man with the red eyes is possesing Charles Wallace and his actions.Do you think Charles was possesed by the man with the red eyes.

  8. 1. What does Meg think has happened to Charles Wallace? What do you think has happened to him?

    i think what happening is that charle s is being control by the red eyes. She thinks that because charles is not the same and the red eye might take over him

    Do you thing Charles Wallace is going to be taken by the dark thing like his father did ???

  9. 3. What do you think "IT" is?
    I think "IT" is the boss i the darkness. It is controlling Charles Wallace.

  10. 3. What do you think "IT" is?
    I think the “IT” is the man with red eyes. He is probobly the person who got Meg’s father personal.

  11. 3) What do you think "IT" is?

    I think that IT is the person who is probably controlling the man with red eyes because it probably has the person who is most likely one of the scientists when Meg's father was working with. I think that it is most likely the brain because it is being wise and controlling other people to be perfect.

  12. What does IT mean?

    I think that they are talking about to two things. The with the Red eyes I think this because that is where they were going to. I also think that he was talking about the blank wall that they were going to.

    Meg thought that the man with the red eyes is going through Charles. Meg thinks that Charles is gone because of what he was
    saying. She thinks that it is someone else in Charles body because he is acting very strange. She thinks that Charles is under a spell that the man with the red eyes put him under. This is why the man with the red eyes said that Charles would lead them to where they were going. I think that the man with the red eyes put him under a spell. I think this because he can open the doors without the people in the stairs. Now Charles knows what IT is now but before he was very curious. I think that he was being very strange.

  13. How do they make sure that no one suffers on Camazotz? What do you think about this practice?

    To make sure nobody suffers on Camazotz, they will kill that person that is suffering. Even if there is a tiny problem that they think will make you suffer, you will be executed. I think this is wrong because if you get sick, its not really pain that you feel. You aren't in agony or about to die if you are sick with a runny nose. It is just a little problem that will eventually go away. I do not like this practice because everyone gets sick once in their life and when they (Camazotz people) find out you are sick, you have to be killed.

  14. The IT is the person or something controlling that man with red eyes. It is probably one of the people working for or with Meg`s father.

  15. I think that IT is the man with the red eyes that was controlling/hypnotizing Charles. I think that the man also scared Charles by starring at him.
