In chapters 5-8 Laurine is Starting to dislike the class project “The Wave”. Her mother& father and her where talking about it one night at dinner. Her mother did not agree with this and said that people are individuals and they should think for them selves. At first Laurine thought her mom was well just being a mom. Her father liked the idea of kids being disciplined and behaving at school. When Laurine went to her Social Studies class the next day Mr.Ross had put out cards on every ones desks He explained that they where membership cards for ”The Wave”. He also explained that a few of them had been marked with red x’s,.The people with these cards where now dispensary’s they were ordered to make sure that the members followed the rules and they were also to recruit new members for ”The Wave”.
I think that this class project is going down hill fast they are chanting and being way to disciplined, Kids don’t act like that . They are beginning to act more like a cult than a class room.And what happens when someone breaks the rules? Do they get kicked out or punished? I think that Mr.Ross should really stop this now before its out of his hands. They aren’t doing anything wrong at the moment but it is bound to happen. What happens if someone simply doesn’t want to be in ” The Wave”. They are going to turn out just like the Nazi’s did they are going to think the are the superior race in their school/community. This is going to be Horrendous.
