In chapter’s five to eight, a few very important events happened.

In History Class the next morning Mr. Ross was teaching the students about discipline. He explained the word discipline and he asked a student Amy to come up to the class room to show them posture. He made the whole class give the correct posture and soon all the students became interested and hooked to what he was teaching them. Mr. Ross also told them that when he asks a question from one of his students and they have to stand up and reply Mr. Ross.. ( the correct question). Soon every history class all the students became hooked to doing this routine.  At football David thought it would be a good idea to do The Wave at football because they lose all their games and no one even takes them serious anymore. He thought it would be a good idea and help them win but Eric didn’t really agree with him. Soon the whole football team showed up and started fighting. David talked them out of it and Eric whispered to David to tell them about the wave.

Laurie was at home eating supper with her parents and talking about what happened in history class today and how it works so good and her mom wasn’t really agreeing with her and telling Lauri that this didn’t sound right and it sounded like it was brainwashing the students while everyone thought the wave was a good idea. Even Ben’s wife Chrissy didn’t think it was right. Something was bothering her about it. At school the next day Mr. Ross gave the students a membership card and if the card is marked with a red x you are a monitor and you are to report directly to the Mr. Ross if some members in The Wave do not obey the rules. Robert and Brian both got the red x and were happy about it. At lunch Amy, David, Laurie, Brian, and Brad were sitting at a table. They Invited Robert (the loner) to come sit with them at the lunch table because they thought that if everyone is in The Wave, you’re all in it together.

I think that Laurie’s mom is right about thinking Mr. Ross is manipulating the students in his class. Something big is going to happen and Laurie’s mom was going to right about the whole thing all along while no one even bothered to listen to her. Even Chrissy (Ben’s wife) didn’t think it was a good idea, she didn’t think it was right to do to his student’s.

These few chapters surprised me because it’s kind of weird and different how all of a sudden all the students listen to their teacher in history class and don’t joke and foold around anymore and how the popular crew invite Robert to come sit with them at lunch over a group in history class. The students are actually excited to come to class and learn about it and what is going to happen next. I think the whole Wave group is going to get carried away and the school won’t be safe anymore for students to go to and learn and a lot of the students will join The Wave group just to keep safe.
