1. The tradition developed because potters weren't always artists, and it was a poor trade so sons didn't want to do it, and didn't do it, so there weren't enough potters until the king decreed that sons of potters must become potters themselves

2. This means that when one opportunity goes away another opportunity opens up. tree ear discovers that he can do molding clay if he won't be allowed to throw clay to make pots.

3. What disturbed tree ear on his way to Songdo was a fox. It woke him up and frightened him and it disturbed him because crane man had told him his story about when he was about to go walk to the monk's place, but then a fox scared him and he went back and lived alone under the bridge.

4 Tree ear discovered that kang's innovation had spread because he saw inlay work in a store when he was on his journey.

5 The robbers were looking for money to steal from someonee. they didn't take the vases because they thought they would look like fools because it was a gift to the kingdom.

6 two examples of showing courage are that instead of jumping of the cliff he will face Min. Also before he faced Min he would continue his journey and take shards to the emmissary.

1. The tradition became a law by the king. This is because long before their time pottery was not beauty, it was just for their use. So, they did not want their sons to have such a lowly life. But while more and more sons left their was not enough potters to supply the people.
2. Crane-mans words mean that one if one opportunity fails there is always another.
3. On his way to Songdo he often slept under the eves of someone's house. But, he found himself in the situation where there were no houses so he slept in the woods.While drifting off he heard something. It turned out to be a fox. Tree-ear is afraid because he's heard stories of how they hypnotized people and killed them.
4. Tree-ear had discoverd that Kang's inlay work had spread because while in Puyo he saw a person at a stand selling his work.
5. When the robbers where up on the rock of falling flowers they were looking for rice bcause on page 121 the rober says, "let me help you with that, a fin load of rice indead."
6. Tree-ear shows courage by taking a single shard from one odf Min's vases and travels to Songdo to see what the royal emmisary would think.

1. Thee tradition developed by potting started out as just making pots and not make it fancy. Then to little people were making pots so they made potting into that it had to have a design on it and more people wanted to pass there business to there sons.

2. Crane man ment if you mess up theres always another shot. and this happens to tree ear because when the robbers break the pots he has the single piece oof inlay work so another door opened.

3.The thing that disturbed him was seeing the fox and it concerned him because he had heard crane mans story and crane man said once he saw the fox he started going back to the village.








4.Tree Ear discovered that kanjis innovation had spread because instead of min's regular work the embassy asked for inlay work.

3. The robbers were looking for food from tree ear and the robbers didn't take because they were fit for a king and someone would think they stole them.

6.Two examples are Tree ear was courageous is one is that tree ear brought only one piece to the ebassary and he kept on going on the journey even when he saw the fox.

1) The tradition of potters passing the pottery trade only to their sons developed. This happened by one time pots not being about beauty but of use. Then it started to be about bueaty and the potters wanted only their sons to learn the trade and become wealthy.

2)The quote that Crane-man said "...the same wind that blows one door shut often blows another open." applied to Tree-ear. It applied to Tree-ear by Crane-man dying so Min and Ajima adopted him and Min is going to show him how to make pottery.

3) A fox disturbed Tree-ear when he was sleeping one night on his journey to Songdo. This was of great concern to Tree-ear because Crane-man had said to him that foxes posesed evil spirits and demons in them.

4) Tree-ear found out that Kang's pottery idea had spread quickly because when he had arrived in Pyro which was a city later in his trip to Songdo the idea was alreay being used there and sold.

5) The robbers where looking for rice at the top of the rock of falling flowers. They did not take the vases from Tree-ear and sold them because they where fit for royalty and they did not want anyone thinking they stole it from royalty.

6) Two examples of Tree-ear showing bravery after the robbery where by continuing the trip to bring Kim the single shard. Another way of him showing bravery after the robbery was not commiting suicide by jumping of the cliff and facing Min.

1) This developed because many years ago there were a lot of people who left the trade so not enough potters could supply people with pottery.

2) What crane man means by this saying is that if you fail at something, there will always be another opportunity at something different. This quote applys to the book because when the robbers broke the vases he thought there was no hope left. He had not heard the second crash so there was a chance that it was not broken.

3) Tree ear was disturbed because he had seen a fox and now it had disappeared and it made tree ear very paranoid. This was a concern to tree ear because that is what drove crane man away from being a monk.

4) Tree ear discovered that kang's innovation had been released because there was a big crowd over near his displays when the emissary was there.

5) The robbers followed tree ear up that cliff because they thought that he would have rice in the jiggeh. They did not steal the vases because if they are poor looking and have very beat up clothes and try to sell the pot, only a fool would buy it.

6) One example of tree ear showing courage is on page 129 when he has the idea to show the single shard to the emissary. Another example of tree ear showing courage is on page 127 when he tries to make the best out of the situation of the two broken vases. he had not heard the second crash so he went to look for it.

1. The tradition of passing down pottery as a trade started happening because, a long time ago potting was not a great trade. Potting was only for everyday things not art. So it wasn't a very good trade. Many fathers didn't pass it down to their children. So then the potters died and know one took over. It was then made law to pass potting down to your son.
2. I think Crane-man means don't worry if you can't do one thing. You can just move to another thing. Like when Tree-ear gets told he can never make a pot. He just makes pottery with his hands.
3. Tree-ear was disturbed by a fox. Foxes where known to take people into there lair or den and eat them. Tree-ear probably wouldn't be scared if Crane-man had not told him the story of how he say a fox on his way up to the temple to become a monk, when he lost his house.
4. Tree-ear found out that Kang's inlay pottery had taken charge, when he was walking to the rock of falling flowers he saw the man selling pottery with inlayed flowers.
5. The robbers only wanted some rice or food. So when they saw Tree-ear with a jigeh he thought it was filled with rice so he tried to take all the food by robbing him. Instead all he got where two vases. The robbers where thinking about selling the vases for money, but they saw they were made so nicely that it must of been for the king. They just picked up the vases and through them off the egde of the cliff.
6. Tree-ear showed courage by running down the cliff and checking if the seccond vase ever broke. When he found out it did he took a single shard and brought it all the way to Emissary Kim. He showed courage with the guard by saying Emissary Kim's only one he will show the work of Min to. Also saying that the robbers broke both of the pots, but he got only shard to show Emissary Kim.

1. Before Tree-ear was born, being a potter was a poor trade. All the sons of the potters ran away to another profession. Back then, being a potter meant making it functional, not beautiful. Soon, there were not enough potters to satisfy the needs of the people. So, a law was passed that all sons of potters must become potters themselves.
2. What Crane man meant that for the same reason you cannot do something, ( the closing of the door) may give you another opportunity. ( Opening of another door) This helped Tree-ear realize that even if Min would not teach him at the wheel, he could mold pottery. He would never have realized this if Min had taught him to pot at a wheel.
3. While Tree-ear was sleeping, a fox came near his mat. This reminded him of the fox in Crane-man’s story about why he did not go to the temple. He was thinking maybe it would cause something to happen that would stop him from going to Songdo, as foxes were considered a bad omen back then. They were said to be tricky and clever.
4. When Tree-ear got to one village, he found people selling things that looked like Kang’s pottery on the streets. It even had the same design! It was not as good quality, and it was kind of like a knockoff, but the people selling claimed it was a favorite of the Emperor’s.
5. The robbers were looking for travelers who knew the story of the falling flowers to come up and see it. They wanted the people to be traveling alone so they could rob them. They thought Tree-ear was holding rice, and were angry at finding the vases instead. They didn’t take the vases because with their fine quality, they guessed it was a gift for the emperor. They thought if they tried to sell it to somebody, they would figure out it was stolen property.
6. Tree-ear was brave to continue on his journey to Songdo, even knowing that a fox had visited him, and the worst could be yet to come. He could have just gone home without having to worry about the fox he had seen, but he kept going. Another way he was brave was by presenting the single shard to the emissary because Emissary Kim could be angry at him for not bringing the whole vase, but Tree-ear showed him the shard anyway.

It was developed because a long time ago there were a lot of potters so they were not respected as they are now. But later in time potters quit their jobs and became something different. Now there are very few left and they have to teach their skills to their son.

What Crane man means by that is when one opportunity is closed another will come shortly after. Or as in this case when tree-ear’s opportunity got closed another one came along.

Chapter 10:

3. What disturbed Tree-ear as he slept while on the journey to Songdo? Why was this of great concern to Tree-ear?

4. How did Tree-ear discover that Kang's innovation to pottery had spread? Tree-ear knew that kang’s
innovation ad spread because shortly after the emissary came to check their stalls Min tried kang’s idea and it did not work out for him so when the emissary came to give min another try he had smashed al of his pots and had nothing to show the emissary.
Chapter 11:

What the robbers were looking for at the top of the Clift is Tree–ear. They mugged him and took the vases but instead of trying to sell them. But instead they broke them on the ground.

Tree-ear shows courage after the robbery is because he stands at the edge of the Clift thinking of the story crane-man told him and thinks of committing suicide when everything is wrong in your life. He shows bravery also is when the vases are smashed he still takes a single shard of the vase and tries to bring it to the emissary to show.

1. Before Tree-ear pottery was used for tasks and not beauty so it was considered a poor trade. The government made a law that the trade had to be past from father to son because the court didn't have enough pottery.
2. He meant one opportunity had passed, but another would come. Tree-ear knew he couldn't throw a pot but instead he could mold small items like the turtle and the monkey.
3.
4. He discovered it in Puyo when he went in street vendor's shop.
5. They were looking for money or food but they got nothing. They didn't take the vases because they knew it was a new design and it was for the court.
6. One example is he took the shard and wrapped it instead of running away. Another is when he showed the emissary the shard because he had no pottery for the emissary.

1. The tradition of the sons of potters learning the skills and becoming potters themselves developed in Korea when fathers stopped teaching their sons pottery skills because potters were considered a low trade. More and more sons left the trade so there was a short supply of potters. Then the king made it a law saying that the sons of potters had to become potters too.
2. When Crane-man said "...the same wind that blows one door shut often blows another open." he meant that when one opportunity doesn't work out like you want it to, that opportunity might still happen but in another way. This quote applied to Tree-ear in the novel because when he knew Min wouldn't be able to teach him the potter's trade, Tree-ear realized there was another way to make pottery- by molding. He soon realized he already knew how to mold clay into shapes when he made a petal all by himself.
3. Tree-ear was awakened by a fox as he slept while on the journey to Songdo. This was of great concern to Tree-ear because he was defenseless against the fox. He thought the fox would kill and eat him and the vases would never be found.
4. Tree-ear discovered that Kang's innovation to pottery had spread when he saw three celadon bowls inlaid with chrysanthemums for sale in a shop owner's stall in the city of Puyo. He knew then that Kang's designs had been copied and sold on the streets of Puyo.
5. On the top of the Rock of Falling Flowers, the robbers were looking for rice to steal. The robbers didn't take the vases because they knew the vases were a gift for the palace and no one would buy them because they would think they were stolen from the palace.
6. One example of how Tree-ear showed courage after the robbery was when he went to the river's edge to look for the second vase hoping to find it unharmed. Another example of the courage Tree-ear showed was when he decided to still go to Songdo and show the emissary the single shard from the second broken vase.

1. The tradition of pottery being passed down from father to son started when potters were looked down upon. Sons of potters decided not to become a potter so eventually there were no more potters to make plates and bowls and silver wear. Then the king made it a law that potters' sons must become potters.
2. Crane-man meant, when you lose one opportunity, another one often comes up.
3. A fox disturbed him while he was trying to fall asleep. This was of great concern to Tree-ear because
Crane-man had told him a story about running into a fox.
4. Tree-ear discovered that Kang's innovation of pottery had spread because he saw alike pieces being sold.
5. The robbers were looking for rice on top of the Rock Of The Falling Flowers.
They broke the vases for fun to be mean.
6. He showed courage by taking the shard to the palace and not turning back. And, he fell and said that his pain was welcome.

1. The tradition of the potter teaching their sons started when being a potter was not a good job, because people didn't think that pots were that special. So the potters didn't want their kids having to the job that they have to do, but the government said that there is too little of people being potters so that the kids of the potters have follow and their father's footsteps.
2. When Crane-man said "the same wind that blow one door shut often blows another", he might of might that when something you want doesn't happen like you thought it would something better might happen to come. This quote applied to Tree-ear in this novel because when Min said that Tree-ear said that he couldn't make a pot he thought that his dreams of being a potter was over, but then he thought to him-self he can still mold things, so that was the other door that blew open.
3. I think that the fox disturbed Tree-ear when he slept because Crane-man told Tree-ear a story about a fox so he thought the fox would kill him. So he stayed up all night sitting in an uncomfortable spot. This fox scared him because of how Crane-man told him the story about the fox and how it scared him, and it might not of scared him that much if Crane-man didn't tell him the story about the fox.
4. Tree-ear found out that Kang's idea spread fast because when he was in Puyo he saw that there were people saying that the potter that they had was worth a lot of money, and the people that made the pot was coping what Kangs did. Showing that words spreads quickly.
5. The robbers were looking for food on the top of rock of falling flowers, and they didn't want the vases. They didn't want the vases because they knew that he was giving it to the government and that people wouldn't take it from them.
6. The two examples of courage Tree-ear showed after the robbery was that he didn't give up and he went to try to find the vases even though he kind of knew that they broke. Also he could of just gave up and told himself that the emissary will not just take a shard of the vase, but he kept moving on.

I. The tradition of sons taking the positions of becoming potters developed in Korea because potters weren’t always called artists, it was actually called poor trade. So potters did not pass it on to their sons. Soon there were very few potters to provide peoples needs. So the king passed a law that all the potters must pass on their talent to their sons.

II. What Crane-man meant when he said “…the same wind that blows one door shut often blows another open.”, was that if one opportunity goes away then often another one comes up. This quote applies to Tree-ear because once Min refused to teach Tree-ear how to make a pot, he was depressed but then he realized that making a symmetrical figure wasn’t the only thing he could do. He could mold clay into shapes and this technique was just as important.

III. The thing that disturbed Tree-ear as he slept on his journey was a fox. This was of grate concern of Tree-ear’s because Crane-man often told Tree-ear that foxes were bad luck and they can control you I you don’t be careful. Also Crane-man old Tree-ear that they were very clever and they can trick you.

IV. Tree-ear discovered that Kang’s innovation to pottery had spread because on his journey to Songdo he looked at a shop and the same technique was on the pots, but not as well as Master potter Min’s.

V. What the robbers were looking for on top of the Rock of Falling Flowers, was food. The robbers didn’t take the vases because people will notice the talent that was put into it that their only guess was that it was made for the palace and then expect that they stole them.

VI. Two examples of how Tree-ear showing courage after the robbery are that Tree-ear continue his journey to Songdo and show the emissary a single shared and by throwing his jiggeh over the mountain side.

1. How the tradition of the sons of potters learning skills and becoming potters themselves developed in Korea was by, on page 97 it says, “Year after year, more sons left the trade until at last there were not enough potters to supply the needs of the people! So the king at the time decreed that sons of potters must become potters themselves.”

2. What Crane-man meant by that saying was that when one opportunity is denied, another opportunity often comes in. This quote applies to Tree-ear in the novel because the door closed when he found out he wouldn’t be able to make a pot, but the door opened when he could bring the vessels to Songdo to make Ajima happy.

3. The darkness around Tree-ear disturbed him and the fact that he was alone disturbed him because he has never been alone, traveling before. This was a concern to Tree-ear because he has been with Crane-man all of the years and Crane-man was mostly taking care of him, Crane-man was just getting old so Tree-ear had to scavenge for food. But now Tree-ear was all alone for the first time now and he was disturbed, and scared.

4. Tree-ear discovered that Kang’s innovation to pottery had spread because in Songdo Tree-ear saw Kang’s idea displayed and being sold. But the work wasn’t as superior and the maker of it didn’t take as much time as Kang did to master his creation.

5. The robbers were looking for travelers alone that were weak, young and that had rice because they would be able to rob them since they were weak and young and they would steal the rice from them because the robbers don’t have food. They didn’t take the vases because if they were to sell them, no one would buy it because it was a gift for the Palace. So if they couldn’t sell it, it would be useless for them.

6. Two examples of Tree-ear having courage after the robbery are, he had courage to decide to face the Royal Emissary with only a shard of work and him not giving up and thinking that the last pot wasn’t broken and him going through the thorny shrubs to look for it.

3. A fox desturbed Tree-ear an the way to Songdo. This was of great concern to Tree-ear because foxes were thought to have possed evil majic and could lure a man into his doom. They were very feared back then.
4. Tree-ear figured out Kang's teqniqe had spread because when he was passing through a town an his way to songdo all the pots were made with the inlay work and his teqniqe.
5. the robbers were looking for rice in Tree-ear's pouch they did not take the vases because they knew they were made from the palace and no one would have bought it from them.

4. Tree-ear discovered Kang's innovation to pottery had spread because tree-ear had seen that there had been three identical pieces of pottery displayed. Also It says that the design of Kang's work had been loved and Tree-ear knew that the king loved Kang's pottery.
5. The robbers were looking for his straw container and what is in the straw container. The robbers didn't take the vases because one robber said '' Look at it-can't you see this is a gift for the palace. Nobody would ever dare to buy it from us.''

Another example is when tree-ear watches his container fall off the cliff and watching it bounce several times thinking if that container was him.

1. The skills of sons becoming potters was developed by the government making it a law because there kept becoming less and less potters so the people needed more so they made it a law to make your son a potter.
2.When Crane Man says this he means that when trouble happens your stuck with it but if "the window opens you can get out of it. This applies to Tree ear because he noticed he "the window closed" when he broke min's box but "the window opened when he got the opportunity to take the trip to Songdo.
3.Tree ear's great concern was about the fox in the woods because he thought it would eat him.

1. the tradition of the sons of potters becoming a potter because none of the potters wanted their sons to have such a lowly life, because at the time potters were not looked upon as artists they were just making pots and so forth for daily needs. So all the potters’ sons were going into a different carrier which means when the potters retire there would be know one working for them. This was a problem because less potters meant less pots and less pots mean say if a pot was broken you would not be able to buy a pot too easily. So the king of Korea deiced to enforce a law that a potter’s son must be a potter when he got older.
2. crane-man meant that if someone stops using or doing something then someone else can either use it or do whatever is being done. This apply to tree-ear in the story because once another potter is done with the kiln another can use it.

Another example of courage is when he has to deliver the piece of the vase he would not let the royal guard bring it to him he stood up and took it himself.

1. The tradition developed because being a potter was a poor trade in Korea so many people chose not to do it. After this happened there wasn't enough potters to supply the people. So then the King made it a law that the potters had to pass down their artistic ability to their sons.

2. In my opinion what Crane-man meant was one oppurtunity leads to another.

3. What disturbed Tree-ear as he slept on his journey to Songdo was a fox. This was of great concern to Tree-ear because Crane-man had told him about the story when he was on his way to the temple to become a monk when he encountered a fox. That is why Crane-man lived under the bridge all his life.

4. The way that Tree-ear discovered Kang's innovation to pottery had spread was because in Puyo he saw a man at a stand selling pottery with the same inlay work.

5. The robbers were looking for money and rice to steal because they were poor and hungry. The reason the robbers didnt take the vases was because they thought they would look like fools selling pottery that was a gift for the Kingdom.

6. Two examples of how Tree-ear shows courage are by instead of jumping off the Cliff of Falling Flowers Tree-ear decides he will face Min. Another example is by taking just a single shard of one of Min's vases to show the emissary.

1)the tridtion started becuase most fathers wanted their sons to have the same potery skill as them so then the king at the time decreed that sons of potters must become potters themselves.

2) Crane man meant that if you drop one idea then another one opens. For example the pots breaking on the cliff, Tree-ear thought that he had lost mins chance to work at the emissary but then tree ear brought the emissary the inline work that he did and sure enought min got the job.

3) The thing that concerned tree ear when he was sleeping was the fox. That concerned him because crane man had told him about the fox at the church.

4) Tree ear discovered that kangs innovation to potery had spread because Tree-ear had noticed that Kangs inlay work was in the store.

5) the robbers were looking for money ands the robbers did not take the vases because they thought that they would be fools. They thought that because the vases were a gift to the emissary.

6) Tree-ear show courage because he didnt jump off the cliff. Also he shows courage because he decides to continue on with his journey.

1. The tradition of the sons potter learning the skills developed in Korea by making normal pots for their home until the pots started to get noticed and were meant for designs. So the potters wanted to share their work with their sons so they can be potters.
2. Crane man meant that if something goes wrong there's a second chance and Tree Ears second chance was to bring the single shard to the place when the inlay work fell and broke.
3. A fox disturbed Tree Ear because Crane Man had told him stories about a fox scaring him to go back to the village thinking it might attack him.
