In this blog we will explore Mark Haddon's, the curious incident of the dog in the nighttime, by posting discussion questions, responding to classmates' comments, and researching interesting topics further.
Guidelines:
1. All language must be academic and school appropriate.
2. Avoid digression as much as possible; be sure your line of discussion relates the novel and expands the class's knowledge or exploration in an obviously meaningful way.
3. CITE SOURCES

Amy's Question
If you were Chris's dad's place, what would you do when Chris found the letters from his mom?Would you have also told him about killing Wellington, or would you have kept that a secret for his own good?
I would have not told Chris about killing Wellington. I felt that subject to be slightly irrelevant and frightening to share. I would have given him time to understand things. Also, I would have explained to him why i did what i did and what i thought about the whole problem. I would have explained to him what i believed his mother felt and thought. I'd hope that Chris would understand or be okay with what happened.
