Chapters 5-8 were pretty important. Except for chapter 7, there is really no information in this chapter. In chapters 5-8, Ben Ross had wrote on the board STRENGTH THROUGH DISCIPLINE. A student had come into the class and asked what it was, and Ben said to wait until everyone was in the classroom. When everyone was in he made them practice sitting up straight and posture. Then he had them get up and stand in the hallway and tell them to go to their desks. He said that it was a disorganized mess. So they all made up a plan and put the people who have to walk the farthest at the front of the line. Ben Ross also handed out cards and some of them and a X on the back, if you got a card that had a X on the back you were a monitor. What a monitor does is look around the Wave members and if they see someone not following the rules they have to tell Ben Ross. Laurie had told her mom and dad about what they were doing in class, her mom didn’t really like it. Her dad on the other hand, doesn’t really mind it, he says what ever makes kids listen these days. At lunch the next day, everyone sat together. Even the class loner Robert was sitting with everyone.
A part that surprised me was that the whole class obeyed Mr. Ross, even Robert the class loser. Robert usually doesn’t do anything, just sleeps through the class. Now he actually participates in class, and hangs out with people. How everyone sat together after just one class. Mr. Ross showed them that everybody was equal, and that if they didn’t think that everyone was equal they couldn’t be in the wave.
I thin that in the next chapters that things will get way out of hand. That it will be way to much, there will be way to many members, and some bad things will happen. Ben Ross will go to far, and that will be how the experiment goes to far. Something really bad will happen, the Wave club will turn into something like a cult. Or it will turn into something really bad.
