CYCLE 8 - DAY 3 - SEM 1 - Watership Down 121-149

We took a short vocabulary quiz onUnit 4 today and continued with our discussion of Watership Down.

Today's episode looks at the arrival of Holly from the Sandleford Warren, the continuing evolution of Hazel as a leader and the bonds of the team as they grow through adversity. Notable quote: "There was no more questioning of Bigwig's strength, Fiver's insight, Blackberry's wits or Hazel's authority" (123).

You can find the notes of today's discussion on the wikispace.
