Delete#3. They might find out Ellen is a Jew.

7. That question is a question that sometimes can be a matter of a life of death moment. It is a very serious one that you wouldn't joke about. You might have to think and really concentrate on what your answer is, and if it's the choice you want to make.
1 that is in code i think it means is it a good time to go to sweden with the jews
Delete1.Because he knows Henrik if a fisherman and he wants to fit a conversation while telling him they're coming over.
ReplyDelete2.Because New Year at that time of year is for Jews and if she said yes the soldier would know the family is Jewish.
1.Mr.Johnson said that because it might be a code that tells they're coming.
Delete1. Henrik is a fisherman.
ReplyDelete2. By They asked her if she it was her new year.
1.Because Henrik is a fisherman
ReplyDelete2.By asking if she was a visiting Hinrik for the New Year.
.Henrik is a fisherman

1. Henrik is a fishermen so he wants to know if he will be back on time to see Mrs. Johansen and the girls.
ReplyDelete2. The soldier asked if she was visiting someone for the (Jewish) New year.
1. It is probably a code.
DeleteHenrick is a fisher man and papa is wondering if he is he is staying home.
ReplyDeleteThe solder is tricking her into saying she is jewish.
Mabe a code.
DeleteIf you do not know the truth it is easier to be brave because you think it is the truth.
DeleteThey become equal because they both know the same amount of information.
I would answer brave enough to protect a friend.
1. Maybe code to see how many soldiers are there.
ReplyDelete2. To see if there family is Jewish.
1 Henrik is a fisherman
ReplyDelete2 He asked her if he was visiting him for the Jewish New Year.
response to #1: it can also be secret code, because Henrik is a fisherman that code would not be suspicius.
Delete3 People might find out that Ellen is a Jew
Delete4 Annemarie did not know of any Great Aunt Birdie
5 if you do not know something, it is safe to answer it truthfully
Delete6 they become equals by knowing what happening and knowing the truth.
7 He ment like how willing are you to lie
1. Henrik sounds like a fisher man and I think that Henrik, because he has a fishing boat (prabably to fish with) he will help transeport Ellen to Sweden.
ReplyDelete2. By asking if she is planning any thing for the new year. (He was trying to find out if she was Jewish and that if she was a Jew, he would capture her.)
1-He wants to now if they can get on the boat to go somewhere else.
ReplyDelete2-To see if she was Jewish
1. He doesn't ask him if the weather is good he asks him if he would do him a favor by transferring a Jew to Sweden. (Ellen) I bet it is a code that every body who needs help with moving Jews use this code.
ReplyDelete1. he is a fisherman
ReplyDelete2.he asked if she was for new-year (the Jewish new-year)
3.because she does not want anyone to find out about Ellen.
4. Great Aunt-birte does not exist,annemarie hears Great Aunt Birte is dead, that's not why she's upset she's upset because her mother and Henrik won't tell her what it means she probably thinks Great Aunt Birte's death is code for something.
Delete5.Because if you don't know everything you wouldn't have to lie to anyone about what you don't know and you won't need to hesitate if ever asked.
Delete6. they become equals because they both are thinking the same thing and they both know about Great Aunt Birte
7. I would agree with Annmarie not very.
1. Uncle Henrik is a fisherman so maybe he is going to row Ellen across the ocean to a safe country.
ReplyDelete1. because he asks if it's a good time to bring Ellen over.
ReplyDelete2. because he asks if they were visiting Mrs. Johansen for there new year. ( Jewish peoples new year)

ReplyDelete1. He was asking hime because it was a secret code i think. A code that means, can you take this Jewish girl somewhere safer?
ReplyDelete2. He asked her if she was going to her brothers to celebrate the Jewish Newyear.
3. She thinks that Henriks friends could be helping Nazi's.
Delete4. I think Great Aunt Birte is fake and Annemarie is upset. It could be a code or anthing to do with secrecy.
1. Papa asked if it was good for fishing because he wants to get the away from land for a while because of the dangers of last night.
ReplyDelete2. The soldier asked that because the Jewish celebrated New Year at this time
1. It was a secret code.
ReplyDelete2. That day was Jewish New Year, so if she was celebrating it, she would be Jewish. It's a good thing that Ellen didn't pipe up and accidentally say that it was her New Year.
3. The people may find out in some way that Ellen didn't belong with that family or if there are soldiers there, they might ask the girls tons of questions, and as we said, it's hard to lie since they know the truth.
Delete1st because Henricks a fisherman 2nd question he tries to trick her by seeing if any of them say yes so he will now there Jewish 3rd question she tells them not to talk because they might say something about Jewish things
ReplyDelete4th shes sad because she lost one of her relatives and shes sad

1.He might be asking if it is a good time for Ellen to come over in secret.
ReplyDelete2.The soilder asked if there going to visit for New Year but really it was the Jewish New Year.
Because he wants the three girls to go fishing and to have fun.
ReplyDelete1.) Because papa was wondering if he was home or fishing. Or it could be a secret saying like the underground railroad.
ReplyDelete1.Henrick is a fisherman
ReplyDelete2.The soldier asked Mrs.Johanson if they are visiting Uncle Henrick for New Year because it is the Jewish New Year so if she said yes then the soldier would know they were Jewish.
1 Uncle Henrik is a fisherman so he has access to boats Ellen's parents are being saved by the french underground resistance if uncle Henrik was part of the french resistance he may take Ellen to Sweeden.
ReplyDelete2 The Nazi asks Mrs.Johanson if she is going to celebrate the new year Mrs. Johanson says its only october and he was trying to trick her because if she said yes he would have took her away.
1 I think it was really a code that we will learn later in the book that will qbe really important.
ReplyDelete2 I think that the soldier was trying to catch her off guard into telling if she is Jewish of not.
3 She told them that because you never know who you can trust and they might report them to the Nazi's.
5 It would be easier to be brave if you don't know everything because you might not know how bad it was or what stuff would happen.
1. Papa asks how the whether is for fishing is a code because he wants to see if Henick can take Ellen on a boat to Sweden because Ellen is Jewish he asked Henick because he owns the boats at the lake/ocean.
ReplyDelete2. The German solder asked Mrs. Johnson where she was going and if she was going there for the New Year. (The Jewish New Year so they could see if they were Jewish.)
2. The Jewish soldiers asked her if she was traveling somewhere to celebrate the new year because it was the Jewish new year.
ReplyDelete2. The German soldier wanted to see if she was Jewish because the Jewish New Year was coming up.
ReplyDelete1 Because they wanted to get Ellen to be safe and with her family so they faked that they were going fishing
ReplyDelete2 because they would have took Ellen token away
ReplyDelete#1.Henrik is a fisherman.
ReplyDelete#2.They wanted to find out if they were jewish.
3.Because if they talked to other people the could find out Ellen is Jewish and they will tell the German soldiers and the soldiers will take them away.
ReplyDelete4.Great Aunt Birte is their aunt and Annmarie was sad because she never even got to meat her.
Papa asked him that because it was was code word for Ellen when they wewe comeing to visit him.
ReplyDelete3. because if they talked to anyone, it would be difficlt to explain who Ellen is (Jewish)
ReplyDelete4.I think aunt Birte is maybe a relitive of Ellen's or a Jew or she is a code.
This comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDelete1.It could be a code
ReplyDelete2.He asked about the jewish new year
5.because you wouldn't have to lie
Delete6.They think and know the same things
7.At certian times I would have to be more than any other time multiplied.
3.They could not tell any one cause they could have been cough and a rested or worse.
ReplyDelete3: Mrs.Johansen knows that if anyone finds out that Ellen is a Jew Ellen and the Johansens would be in danger.
ReplyDelete4: Aunt Birte is a so-called relitive that Annemarie has never heard of. She is upset because she does not know who Aunt Birte is.
Because they might get suspicious and figure out that Ellen is a Jew.
ReplyDelete3.It is hard to explan who Ellen is.
ReplyDelete4. Aunt Birte is someone that is not real and Annemarie Knows that she is not her Aunt.
#3.They might find out that Ellen is a Jew and get the Nazis.
ReplyDelete#4.Annemarire is upset because great Aunt Birte does not exist any more.Great Aunt Birte is Annemarie's great aunt.

ReplyDelete4:Great Aunt Birte is is their Aunt and they never meet her.

ReplyDelete4. Annemarie is upset because Great Aunt Birte doesn't exist.
It is to hard to tell who Ellen is.
ReplyDeleteGreat aunt Britie is Anmaries Great aunt.
Mrs.Johnson did not want them to talk to any one because someone might know that Ellen is a Jew or ask who Ellen is and it would be hard to explain to people who ask.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDelete3 Annmerie's mom doesn't want them to talk to anyone so that person doesn't fined out that Ellen is jewish.
ReplyDelete4 she is mad great aunt birte is not real.The name must be a code.
3. She didn't want them to talk to anyone because they might find out that Ellen is a Jew and she is being transported to Sweden, but she had to say it that way because they don't know that that's going to happen.
ReplyDelete4. I think Great aunt Brite is another code for something maybe it is a code for saying it is Ellen's and Annemarie's last day together and Annemarie is upset because she knows it has to be something sad but she just doesn't know what it means.
3 Because they could be friends to the German soldiers and find out Ellen is a Jew or when they ask who is this what would they say and if a German soldier asked Henrick friends if they new about the Rosens they might because they tell the soldiers and if they didn't they would be telling a lie
ReplyDeleteGreat Aunt Birte is Annemaries aunt.Annemarie was sad because it was the first death she her of in her family.
ReplyDelete3 It would be too hard to explain who Ellen was and it would be too dangerous to say.
ReplyDelete4 I think Great Aunt Birte is just a cover up that the grown-ups said so the girls would not be worried of what would happen, and Annmarie was so upset because she did not know about her and she has always been interested in her family members and her mothers stories and what happens.
1. So nobody gets on to that they are helping Ellen.
ReplyDelete2. Aunt Birte is most likely Lisa. I think this because she is dead.
Annemarie is upset because her parents are lying to her because she thinks Great aunt Birte is fake.
ReplyDelete#3.She thinks that Henrik's friends may be the Natizs.
ReplyDelete#4. Aunt Birte is Annemarie's great aunt.
1.I think Annmarie's dad asked Uncle Henrick because he really means that is the weather good for taking Ellen to Sweden by his boat.
ReplyDelete2.The soldiers wanted to trick Annmarie's mom into saying that she was Jewish.
3.Uncle Henrik may have Nazi neighbors or greed selfish people who will turn Ellen in and if Kirsti says something like "Ellen is going to celebrate her new year because she is Jewish."which may give them away
ReplyDelete4 Aunt Birte was Annemaire's great aunt.Who died and love her mother.
3. Mrs. Johansen doesn't want Henrik's friends to find out because they might tell on the Nazis.
ReplyDelete2. Great Aunt Birte is Annemarie's great aunt. Annemarie is upset because she knows all of her relatives by their names and personalities, and she had never known a relative named Aunt Birte. I think this might be a trap for the Nazis
1.Because the fisherman might see the star of David imprint on Annemarie's hand and tell the Nazies that she is a jew.
ReplyDelete2.Aunt Birte is Annemarie's aunt and she feel bad about a relative who pass away.
3.They might find out Ellen is a Jew and tell the Nazis for their own safety.
ReplyDelete4.Great Aunt Birte might be someone Annmarie's mom doesn't like to talk about.Annmarie is so upset because she doesn't know who she is.
1. Why does Papa ask Henrik about the weather for fishing?
ReplyDeleteA. It's a code.
2. How did the German soldier on the train try to trick Mrs. Johansen?
A. He was seeing if any of them were Jews
3. Why does Mrs. Johansen tell the girls not to talk to anyone - even Henrik's neighbors?
A. Henrik's neighbors might get suspicious and call the soldiers.
4.Who is Great Aunt Birte? And why is Annemarie so upset about her?
A. Annemaire realizes that she doesn't have a Great Aunt Birte, and she gets upset that Henrik and Mama are moving the furniture and stuff.
1. "Is it good weather for fishing" is a code. I think it means "Is it okay to hide our friend Ellen in your house for a little bit."
ReplyDelete3. Mrs. Johanson tells them not to talk to anyone because the people might get suspicious. I think they might get suspicious because they have Jewish and tell one of the soldiers. It would also be hard to explain.
DeleteMrs. Johanson didn't let the girls talk to anyone, because she dosen't know if anyone is a gearman. She wants to be safe, and not let the girls talk to anyone besides family
ReplyDelete3. Mrs. Johanson is worried that the Nazis would find out the secret they had from someone telling someone else and that person telling someone else and so on
ReplyDelete4. Mrs. Johanson may not want Annemarie to know about great aunt birte
3. Mrs. Johanson tells the girls not to talk to anyone by the sea even Hendrick's neighbors because they might ask who Ellen is. That is bad because they might think Ellen is Jewish and tell the Nazis.
ReplyDelete4. Great- Aunt Birte is Mrs. Johanson's grandmother. I think Annemarie is upset that Hendick didn't tell Annemarie that her Great- Grandmother died.
3.) Because in The Butterfly, Sevrene was being hid. But when she was seen through the window they took, Sevrene away because the man that saw her could call the police or something like that. So if someone found out that Ellen was a jewish they could let a Nazi know and then the Johanson family could get wiped out.
ReplyDelete2:To keep the girls safe and the person might find out that Ellen is Jewish and tell the Nazis to stay safe.
ReplyDelete3. Probole because she does not want much people to know about Ellen because Mrs. Johanson might think more people that do not know the better it is
ReplyDelete1.To see if the weather was right to take Ellen across the ocean to swedin.
ReplyDelete2.He wanted to know were she got Ellen so he asked "were did you get the dark haired one, you have two blonde girls, but were did you get the dark haired one? From the Rosens maybe?
2.The soldier tries to trick her by saying "Are you visiting for the new year?" Which would be Ellen's new year.
ReplyDelete4. Great Aunt Birt isn't a person, That's why Annemarie is upset. She knows that Henrick has been lying.
ReplyDeleteIt's a code so that the notzis don't know what there're doing
ReplyDeleteI agree, the nazi's are basically taking over everything.
Delete#1
ReplyDeleteHe is speaking in code and is telling Uncle Henrik that Ellen is coming.
This comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteShe said are you traveling for New Year because it is the Jews New Year.
ReplyDeleteGreat Aunt Birt isn't a person that's probably why Annmarie was so upset she knows that Henrick has been lying.
ReplyDelete5.It would be easier because if say if you had to lie like in "the butterfly" if you didn't know Jews were hiding in your basement.You could easily say "no" if the Nazi's ask, "is someone in your basement?"
ReplyDeletehe says that because people could find out that ellen is a jew and they could call the notzis
ReplyDeletegreat aunt birte is not alive and annemarie is mad because uncle hendrik and mama are lying
ReplyDeleteShe said are you traveling for the New Year? because it's Jewish New Year.
ReplyDelete5. You don't have to lie about anything.
ReplyDelete6. Annemarie and her mother became equals because they both knew that Great aunt Birte didn't exist.
7. I would say that I am really brave.
5.If you know something and you can't tell anybody it's hard to lie to somebody else
ReplyDelete6.They became equals by knowing what each other was thinking.
7.I would probably say "I am not that brave"
5:So you can tell them the truth.
ReplyDelete6:By saying their ant birte died.
7:I am very brave.
5.It would be easier by not knowing the truth because then if a person asked you a question, you would not be tence, and you would be unaware you were lying.
ReplyDelete6.They are equils because they know the same things and they are both sharing the limited knowlage and sharing conseps that are similar.
7.I would answer him by saying,"I do not know how brave I am nor how trusting I am but I will keep the secret deep in my heart."
5 It is easier to be brave if you don't know everything because then if someone asks you something then you won't have to lie you can be giving the answer truthfully.
ReplyDelete6 When they give each other a look that showed they both knew the secret of Great Aunt Birte.
7 Nobody ever really knows the answer to that question until they have no other option than to be brave.
5. Great Aunt Birte is not real and that is why Annmarie is so upset about her because her mother and and uncle were lying to her.
ReplyDelete6. They both know the same things now Annmarie is caught up with her mother.
7. I would tell him how I felt and say that I am not that brave.
5.it is easier to lie to somebody if you don't know what they are talking about.
ReplyDelete6.they become equels by both knowing that they were both ling.
7.I am brave and determand to be brave.
5.It is easier because then if someone asks you a question you don't have to second guess yourself or not be sure if that's right because that's the way you heard it and you can be brave just to speak your mind.
ReplyDelete6.They become equals by telling each other with their expresions that they both know what is really happening and that they're on the same page without even talking to each other.
7.I would say I am pretty brave and I take on challenges, but only sometimes if the challenge is really scary or hard to do I might back down. We can all be brave because we all don't no something.
5. So you do not say or do the things that you were told or showed in fear. (Sometimes better to question than be told)
ReplyDelete6. To be in the same knowledge of the situation.
7. Maybe I cant take on a bear but that is mostly not bravery. I think bravery is not fighting bears. It is mostly fighting inner conflicts and over coming them.
It is overcoming your fears. So maybe I am brave.
5 because is you don't know the secret and someone ask's
ReplyDeleteyou about it than you can say that you really don't know.
6 because they know the same thing and they both share the same knolsge.
7 i would say that i am brave and i can keep a secret
#5 It is easier to not know anything because if you know somethink that you shouldn't know someone can ask you a question about it and you are right you might get in a lot of trouble.
ReplyDelete#6 Annemarie and her mother become equals by protecting eachother and Ellen they did not want them to know so Annemaries mother lied the girls so they did not have to know what was really going on.
#7 I would answer Uncle Henrik's question by saying I am brave enought to know every thing I need to know not anything else that I should not know pr that could get me in thouble if I know like Annemarie when her and Uncle Henrik had that conversasion.
5.Cause sometimes it is better to be brave then to know who to be brave.
ReplyDelete6.By understanding each other in that time of place and knowing each other in every way.
7.Uncle Henrik asked that because he all ready knew she was brave just making sure Annmerie knows she is brave
5. Because if it's a lye you can go along with the lye and if someone asked you a question you can tell them the lye and they will believe it.
ReplyDelete6. Because uncle Henrik told Annemarie about Great Aunt Birte now they now the same things.
7. I am kind of scared of the nazis but otherwise I am not scared.
5. If you didn't know anything you could be truthful and say you couldn't answer the question.
ReplyDelete6. Annemarie and her mother became equals because I think that when Annemarie looked into her eyes her mother saw that she knew the lie and that they both had the same amount of info.
7. I would probably say I am not brave because I am scared of many things.
#5.If you don't know everything you don't have to make the brave decion.
ReplyDelete#6.Because they both know that those people are Jews.
#7 I would say I am brave.
5.It is easier to be brave if you don't know everything because if someone asked you something you can say the truth.
ReplyDelete6.It think that the mother and Annemarie equals because they both lied to keep someone safe.
7.I would say that I am not that very brave in scary moments.
2.I think the solider tricked her because he asked her if she was celebrating the new year and only jewish people do that and they are looking for jewish people.
ReplyDeleteThe butterfly storie is kinda like the Number the Stars book because both of the stories is like when Jews are hiding in peoples basement and the Nazi's come. "Is someone hiding in your basement?"
ReplyDelete#3
ReplyDeleteThey might tell them about Ellen.
I think papa asked if it was a good day to go fishing,because it needs to be a good day so they can ship jewish people to sweden
ReplyDelete1. He is speaking in code.
ReplyDelete2. It's the Jews New Year and he wants to know if they're Jews.
3. So the neighbors don't find out she's Jewish.
4. Annemarie is upset because Uncle Henrik lied to her.
5. If you don't know the truth you can tell the lie.
6. They both help the Jews.
7. I would answer... "As brave as anyone can be"
1. I think Papa asked that because he was speaking in code, so that he really said, "are the nazi's around your naborhood?"
ReplyDelete2. The nazi tryed to trick Mrs. Johancen into saying she was a jew by asking her if she was going for the jewish new year.
3. Mrs. Johancen said that because she was scared the girls would by accedently revile Ellines heritage.
5.Its easier to be brave because you don't have to lie and you can be honest and also people can sense your body language 6.They become equals because they both know whats going on 7.I would say that i'm kind of brave not all the time but sometimes
ReplyDelete5. If you need to be brave and lie, if you know your everything, it's harder to lie.
ReplyDelete6. Annemarie and Mrs. Johanson both knew the same things about what was happening
7. I'm not very brave. I've never accually had to do any thing like lie for a good reason.
5. If you don't know the truth, and someone asks you, it's easy,because you don't know the truth. If you do know the truth and someone asks you it's hard because you have to lie.
ReplyDelete6. Annemarie and her mom both know the same amount about everything going on.
7. I would say, "As Brave as I want to be".

ReplyDelete6. Annemarie and her mother became equals because they both knew the same things.
7. I would tell uncle Henrik that I am not that brave because if I knew the truth of something then having to lie in front of Nazis, it definitely would be scary.
5. If you know the truth you don't have to lie. For example in Joseph bale and scoggins barged in and asked where lily and marriam were and he had to lie. If Joseph didn't know he wouldn't have to lie and things would a lot esaier.
ReplyDelete5.It is easier to be brave because you don't know you are lying, you think you are telling the truth. You don't know what you're doing wrong.
ReplyDelete6.Annemarie and her mom became equals because both of them knew what is going on. They each had no doubt in there mind that what they were doing was wrong.
7.I would say "I am a very brave person. I can tell lies if it means saving my best friend and my family."
5.) Its easier because if you know a secret and someone asks you a question about the secret, you will have to lie because you know the secret and its much easier to tell the truth then to lie. But if you don't know the secret then you can tell the truth.
ReplyDelete6.) They become equals when they both realise that they both know the truth about Great Aunt Birte.
7.) I am brave, but sometimes i'm not. But when i'm brave around my friends they are amazed at what I can do.
5 it is hard to be brave when you do not know the truth you know the correct answer that you should not and if you say one thing wrong it could cost a live (its usually not that bad).
ReplyDelete6 They both know there is no aunt Birte.
7 I would answer uncle Henrik I am brave when it comes to the worst times and someone needs to help when they neeed to be brave.When it is a minor situation its strangely hard to respond bravely.

ReplyDelete5. Why is it easier to be brave if you don't know everything?
DeleteA. If you don't know the truth, you can just say what you think is the truth. If you know the truth, it's harder to just say the lie because you know you're lying.
6. How does Annemarie and her mother become equals?
A. They both know the same amount.
7. How would you answer Uncle Henrik's question: How brave are you?

7. I would answer Uncle Henrik's question by saying that I am brave but sometimes I can be scared.

ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDelete5. If you know everything, it would be harder to lie. If you don't know everything, you would just tell someone that you don't know or what you think the answer is, because you actually don't know.
ReplyDelete6. They both become equals because they both knew that Mama was lying to Annemarie, and that Great-aunt Birte was a fake name. They both knew all that had just happened.
7. I think I am brave because I face my fears, and realize that they aren't scary. I used to be afraid of going upside down on a roller coaster, but I finally got the courage to go on one, and I loved it.
