END-OF-BOOK REFLECTION QUESTIONS

END-OF-BOOK REFLECTION QUESTIONS
The Revealers Begin brainstorming the answers with members of your group!
1. Ms. Hogeboom told Russell that everyone was reading the Revealer and that the atmosphere of the school was changing…”It was like a small revolution” (175). Explain what she means about the school culture and their affect on it.

2. Describe why The Revealers project was so successful with students and judges alike.

3. Russell, Elliot, and Catalina's hypothesis for their science fair project was "if bullying and harassment incidents were brought to light among the whole student body in a school then there will be a reduction in these incidents as well as them being less severe in nature"(194). Did the three main characters prove their hypothesis? Discuss. What is one way you could use technology to improve the school at AISD?


1.She means that since blogger came out the school is reacting in a positive way they are being nicer school wide(atmosphere). Since the stories of others were shared people undrstood what kind of problem it was (big) and that doing it is wrong. Although not all responed lots did in a good way by not bullying and/or being nicer to people.

2. The revealers project was so succesful with all people because it showed videos, stories,the notes written to Catalina, and interviews. All these different things make it interesting so it atracts lots of people. Everyone can relate to this because everyone has been either a bystander, the bully, or the victum.

3.Yes they proved there hypothesis because Richie was nice to Russel thats atleast one. And Mrs.Hogeboom said they were making a difference and Mrs.Capeli said they would bring back the KidNet. A way we could use technology to improve AIS/D is to share bullying stories like KidNet but we could use FirstClass. We could also usee more laptops to do assinments instead of paper so they will not get stolen, copied, or broken.
