ANC Critical Thinker 12/1
1. How does the author describe the the setting and characters in the story?
2. Which events come first and how do they affect what goes on in the story?
3. Do you think the arrival of Carl Ray is a good or bad thing? Explain.

Your questions hit on some important parts of the reading, but I think question two needs some help. Asking about the order of events needs more details - first when? Maybe asking it more like “What event does Mary Lou write about on (date) and how does it affect the rest of the story?”

Sorry i fogot the last question well in number 3 i think that the arrival of Caral Ray was bad becouse they disliked him alot also the parents are going to pay more attention to there guest so they are going to get jelouse. but overall I think the questions wher very good and challenging.
