How I think Huck changed when Tom re-enters the story is how he questioned a lot of things he acted more rebellious. Huck tended to question Toms agreeance in rescuing Jim, Huck never questioned his own kind. Not even when the Duke and Dauphin was involved in the story. I think Huck became more reckless but he was more focused. Huck was like the Duke he followed and did what what he to be done like the Duke and Dauhpin.
Tom agreed to help Huck and Jim because he liked the adventurer and the excitement that came along with capturing a run-away nigger.
My opinion on what Tom was trying to do to get Jim out I didn't like . Because it seemed like he was making it bigger than it should have been. The way he went about it portrayed Jim and Tom and Huck badly in my opinion.
Compare- Huck in Tom both found a interest in Jim.
Contrast- Huck is not rebellious and wild as Tom hes more low key and doubtful.
Tom is the complete opposite he lives his life in and through book , hes manipulative wild and adventurous . He doesn't care.
Question 1- Was the way Huck went about helping Jim the right way?
Question 2- Did Tom only agree to help Huck because he knew that Miss Watson was deceased all ready?

How does Huck change when Tom re-enters the story?
In the beginning Huck just follows along with all of Tom’s crazy stupid plans and doesn’t really thinks about his own opinions and what he wants to do. He basically becomes a yes man to Tom. But towards the end Huck realizes Tom isn’t superior or better than him and he can question the things Tom does and have a mind of his own.
What did you think of Toms plans to help Jim escape?
I think Toms plans weren’t well thought out and were too risky and dumb. They seemed like imaginable crazy plans because toms likes adventures.
Why did Tom help Huck save Jim?
I think Tom helped Huck save Jim because he loves the thought of an adventure just like in the story books, and this was a perfect opportunity to live through one of the stories.
Compare and Contrast Huck and Tom:
Tom has a wild imagination and always tries to include others in his crazy adventurous schemes.
Huck is more realistic than Tom for example seriously trying to help Jim escape but, Huck does go along with Tom’s adventurous schemes throughout the book.
Q1: Did Tom help huck for adventure or because he knew Ms Watson was dead?
Q2: How will this affect Huck and Jim and Tom’s personal relationships with one another?
Chap 32- Huck goes to the Phelp's house where Jim is supposedly at and that's when Tom comes in with his aunt sally and Uncle Silas. Then, Huck tells Tom the situation when Huck needs to get his "Luggage".
ReplyDeleteChap 33- Tom agrees to help Huck free Jim even when Tom is going against society policy. Then, when Huck and Jim sneak out they see a mob going after Duke and Dauphin.
Chap 34- Tom remembers that Jim was put in a shed, thats when Tom found a plan to steal the key and free Jim. Then, Huck starts to realize that Tom freeing and helping Huck do this is against his reputation and then Huck and Tom promise to dig a whole.
Chap 35- Tom starts to realize that Uncle Silas has put Jim on guard so now Huck and Tom have to do the extra things like obstacles for example. Then Tom tells Huck to give the slave owners a dime for stealing a watermelon from the garden.
Chap 36- The boys gather Candle sticks, tin plates and spoons . The Tom, convinces Nat which is one of the slaves that there are witches going after him and that he should make a witch pie and give it to Jim.
Chap 37- Aunt sally gets upset because she finds out the things that are missing at her house. The, Huck and Tom cover the rat wholes with the material which aunt sally gets confused with.
Chap 38- Tom wants Jim to write stuff on the wall with the spoons. The Tom tries to give Jim a rattle snake but hes afraid that they will get caught.
Chap 39- Huck and Tom grab snakes and rats and put it in Phelp's house and when Uncle Silas starts to realize he wasn't hearing anything from the plantation there was a note that was left that was going to bring trouble toward the family. Then at the end Tom acts as a person stealing Jim.
Chap 40- There are men with guns in front of the house which they then go after the shed, but Huck, Tom and Jim escape and thats when Tom was shot in the leg with a bullet which they then find a doctor.
Chap 41- Then Huck runs into Silas and he takes him back home, and Huck finds out that sally doesn't want to let them go because she lost her son Sid before and she cant afford to loose another one.
Chap 42- Tom returns home and people want to hang Jim but the doctor doesn't want that because Jim saved Tom's life and then thats when the news came that Miss. Watson dies two months ago and that Jim should be set free. Then Aunt Polly comes in and says that the boy laying in bed is actually Huck.
Chap 43- Tom wants to repay Jim for what he has done and sense Jim is free the family unchained him and treated him equally and like he was part of the family. Tom starts to recover and that Huck's dad was found dead during the flooding.
Huck starts to change in a good way and starts to prove to Tom that just because a man is colored it doesn't mean that hes any different and that going against your society can be the best just to prove that you would be there for anybody. I think Tom's plan was a little crazy because he got the plan from a book and most plans fail because of the standards that are put in a plan that can be dangerous. Tom agreed to help Jim because he wanted to prove to people that his plan would work even if he read it.
Huck and Tom are starting to actually help people more out, there starting to become more caring and actually thankful toward people.
Huck likes to be by him self, he likes to be the odd one in disobeying. Tom likes to read a lot(Plan), hes always striving for the hardest and trying to prove something wrong.
Will Tom realize that freeing Jim is actually a big change ?
Will Huck be happy that his dad is dead ?
I think Huck feels good about helping a nigger because he really wanted Jim out and Huck and Jim have a special friendship.
I think Huck and Jim's relationship will grow stronger.
Great job catching key events which went on in each of the chapters. Great job overall!

Answers-
1) Huck changes when Tom comes back into the book because he looks up to Tom so, he is going to follow anything Tom says and he becomes more quiet and don't control anything.
2) I didn't like Toms plans, he did things based on the books he read and that wasn't reliable enough.
3)Tom helped Huck save Jim because he wanted to try out all the things he read on, to see if the things the books say were true.

DeleteChapter 32: Huck goes to Phelps house, where Jim is being held. He is then attacked by a pack of vicious dogs. A female slave comes to his aid, and saves him. Huck is mistaken for Tom, but Huck just goes along with it.
ReplyDeleteChapter 33: Tom and Huck run into eachother, and Tom thinks that Huck is a ghost, but later on he finds out he isn't. Tom shocks Huck by saying that he will help Huck free Jim from being a slave.
Chapter 34: Huck and Tom come up with a plan to save Jim, because they think they know where he is. They are caught, and Tom makes up a lie, and says he's been possesed by witches.
Chapter 35: Now that they are caught, Jim was put on guard, and Huck and Tom needed to come up with a better plan, so they decide to dig a hole to help Jim escape.
Chapter 36: Huck and Tom finally reach Jim, and they get the person looking after Jim to make a witch pie to keep off the witches.
Chapter 37: Aunt Sally soon realizes that alot of her supplies is missing that Huck and Tom took for Jim. Aunt Sally comes to a conclusion that the rats have been taking her stuff, and Huck and Tom make rat holes to make it more believable.
Chapter 38: Huck and Jim soon realize that Tom is making alot of trouble and is making thigs more complicated then they should be. Jim is told to plant a seed, and keep it alive by watering it with his tears.
Chapter 39: They retrieve both the snakes and the rats, but they go into Phelp's house by accident. Tom writes a fake letter, saying he's in a gang, and he is going to capture Jim, and the letter is supposed to not let them send Jim, away.
Chapter 40: Huck, Jim, and Tom all escape, but there were men with guns, and Tom was shot in his leg.
Chapter 41: Huck goes to find a doctor for Tom after he got shot in his leg, and on the way he runs into Silas, who won't let him go back to Tom.
Chapter 42: Ms. Watson dies, and Jim sacrafices his freedom to save Tom, but since Ms. Watson has dies, Jim is now a free man, and no longer a slave.
Chapter 43: Jim is finally announced a free man! The Phelps want Huck to go with them to Oklahoma, to make hima better person. Huck finds out that Pap is dead.
I think Huck kind of went back to his old ways like before he ran away from Pap. In my oppinion Tom is not a very good influence. For example, when Huck was still living with Ms. Watson, Tom wanted to start a gang where they would rob and kill people, of course they didin't, but it's still a violent thought, and I think Huck is just being a follower and acting like Tom.
In my oppinion, Tom's plan's were a little to on the edge. He needed to make them more simple, and less obvious that him and Huck were trying to free a runaway slave.
I think Tom agreeed to help, because he thought Huck was dead, and when he saw him at first he was scared, but then he was overjoyed, and jumped to help him to quick, because then his plans were a little to extra, and he got shot.
Compare and Contrast:
Huck: Doesn't like to be told what to do, can rely on, has street smarts
Tom: Wild, doeswhat he pleases, violent at times
Same: They both have good hearts and want to free Jim, they both sometimes think the same.

Summary- Jim is freed (has been all along ). Hucks travels to Oklahoma because the Phelps try to sivilize him. Tom pays Jim off for all problems. Jim tells Hick that Pap was dead.
How I think Huck changed when Tom re-enters the story is how he questioned a lot of things he acted more rebellious. Huck tended to question Toms agreeance in rescuing Jim, Huck never questioned his own kind. Not even when the Duke and Dauphin was involved in the story. I think Huck became more reckless but he was more focused. Huck was like the Duke he followed and did what what he to be done like the Duke and Dauhpin.
Tom agreed to help Huck and Jim because he liked the adventurer and the excitement that came along with capturing a run-away nigger.
My opinion on what Tom was trying to do to get Jim out I didn't like . Because it seemed like he was making it bigger than it should have been. The way he went about it portrayed Jim and Tom and Huck badly in my opinion.
Compare- Huck in Tom both found a interest in Jim.
Contrast- Huck is not rebellious and wild as Tom hes more low key and doubtful.
Tom is the complete opposite he lives his life in and through book , hes manipulative wild and adventurous . He doesn't care.
Question 1- Was the way Huck went about helping Jim the right way?
Question 2- Did Tom only agree to help Huck because he knew that Miss Watson was deceased all ready?
