CANDOR Week 5
Vocabulary Enricher
Decaf: I choose this word because I have never seen it before. I think you pronounce it de-caf but I could be wrong.
Messages: I thought I would just add this in because everyone else has and is pretty much the key word for this story.
Psychotic: I thought when Oscar said this word it would be a good way to describe Sherman was at the hospital, which we read about last week
Appropriate: Everything in Candor is appropriate
Friend: Oscar really didn’t have any friends besides Nia when she wasn’t brainwashed and his shed he says he feels like he has lost a friend when he is burning the shed
Suspicion: I find that the brain washed people have lots more suspicion than a normal person. I think this is because if someone is doing something they shouldn’t be or something that nobody else is doing makes the suspicious.
Perky: I thought this was a funny word in the context of what was going on when he was trying to chase Nia and she smiled at him. I thought it was funny.
Confused: I find that Nia is always confused when Oscar is trying to explain something to her she gets confused very easily.

My connections towards the book and the real world would be the communication between Oscar and Nia since she has been changed. I find it hard to communicate with annoying people like my sister sometimes.
