The rest I think is fine. Jose, I think your paragraph is very good but the only thing is that you have a example in your introduction. The rest I think is fine.

The physical dimensions of settings help the story to a logical part, like when Matt’s dad’s rifle was gone. The rifle was stolen by a man name Ben. If the cabin wasn’t in there the bear wouldn’t be in there to cause a mess for food. This is why this story needs the cabin in the woods in the story. The temporal dimension of the time helps the story move to a logical part. When Matt was in the forest he went to go fishing with Atthean, Matt thought Atthean was trying to show off so Matt tried to build his own fishing rod with a stick and a string he caught a big one. If the Indian was not there to make Matt feel jealous Matt would not catch a fish. This is how the Indian and the cabin in the woods help the story move to a logical part in this book The Sign of the Beaver.

It’s about a boy name Matt who stuck in the woods when his father is getting the rest of the family in Massachusetts. Matt is surrounded by trees, wild animals, and Indians. Matt dad left him because he went back to get the rest of the family. Matt mom is pregnant so it takes 7 months for Matt family to get to the cabin. Matt dad left him with a special weapon.

Although Matt is brave, he’s not prepared for an attack by bees, and he’s hunting. Lucky that Matt dad gave him a weapon to hunt. It was hard for the family because Matt mom had a baby she always has to take a rest and drink much water she can.

In the sing of the dimension of settings temporal and physical of this book. In this the physical and temporal always goes with the book. In the sign of the beaver the temporal always goes with the plot. There are two items I have found like that setting is the year 1768. It says that in begging I found was that it was winter in that year of 1768.the temporal is a part of the book always. The physical demission of setting is logical for the book, because it goes along with it. The physical of it and cuse it’s a nice lidimensions are a cabin in the woods. Also another dimension is on a hunting ground were a person name attean the Indian hunted. If you read the book it will tell you more than me.

This story would be different if it didn’t have the same physical and temporal dimensions of setting In the book Sign of the beaver, the physical dimensions of setting lead in the story. Without the cabin in the woods a stranger wouldn’t come in your house and steel a gun. A bear would not come in your house and eat most of your food. If the river wasn’t there Matt would of died. He wouldn’t also go fishing with the Indian. The forest was a big part of the story Because Matt wouldn’t meet the Indian called Attean. Matt would of drowned if Attean didn’t save his life.

If Matt’s father didn’t leave Matt wouldn’t be able to use his father’s gun and Ben wouldn’t of took the gun. It was almost time when the revolution war was going to start.

If Matt were somewhere else none of these unusual events would have happened. That is why the physical and temporal dimensions of setting effect the plot in Sign of the Beaver. The physical dimension of setting allows the events to happen logically. If Matt would have been in the city he wouldn’t worry about a bear walking in to his house and trying to take his food. Since the bear went into Matt’s cabin he didn’t have anything to eat, so he went up a tree to get some honey from the honey comb, but the bees came out and stung him in his face. To relieve the pain he jumped in the river. His foot got stuck on a twig in the water and he nearly drowned. The Indians who also lived in the forest came and saved him from drowning. They brought Matt back to his cabin. Every day until Matt was able to walk and hunt the Indians brought him food and medicine so he wouldn’t be in pain. When he thought he was ready to get up out if his bed the Indians realized that his ankle was broken. The Indians would not let Matt get up and go. If the dimensions of setting were different Matt wouldn’t of meet the Indians and would have drowned. In the story the temporal dimensions of setting affect the plot. It was winter in 1768 right before the revolutionary war. It was sunny and mild, not real cold. The Indians were running through the forest trying to catch their food. Matt doesn’t know who they are he just knows they are Indians. If Matt were in a different time period he wouldn’t see people running around with rifles trying to catch their food. He wouldn’t see Indians using grass and fur to make their clothing. They would have on Levis or leggings and t-shirts. That is how the temporal dimensions of setting affect the plot. That is how the physical dimensions of setting affect the plot. If Matt were in a different time period and in a different place he wouldn’t have to catch his own food and he wouldn’t have to worry about a bear coming in his house.

In Sign of the Beaver the physical plot is in the woods. Were Matt lives all alone and no one to trust but hiself. Like one time Matt’s friend Ben stole food from Matt and left him with nothing . Also Matt could not go tell the police like we do today because, things were a lot different then. Like in the Sign of the Beaver a bear also tries to stile food from Matt, witch is a lot different from now were bears do not brake in house and try to stile are food. Imagine we still had to live like that it would be very hard to live? In Sign of the Beaver the temporal plot is in 1768 when the Civil War was going on . Yong Mattew Hallowel lived in the warm forest in his fathers cabin alone and he is only thirteen, things are going to be very difficult for him . Like one time he tried to catch a fish with only a knife. Also things are going to be going wrong. Like when Matt gets sting by bees and Indians have to save him or he would have died. Would you belive he lived in the wild all alone! As you can see Matt is going through a tough time trying to live in 1768 stuggling without no one to depend on but hiself.
