=2. Describe the Battle of Cowshed?=

Snowball acted as thwe captain of the army, he attacked the me, first using the smaller animals and then the large one, although the small ones did almost as much damage than the large ones. T.money During the battle of Cowshed Mr. Jones came back to the farm with a lot of this men and they were handling sticks and Mr. Jones was wielding a gun. There were many stages during the battle. The first one was that Snowball launched the pigeons at the men and the other animals attacked. This was a diversion tactic. Mr. Jones fired his gun and the battle became bloody. Boxer then went crazy and scared the men enough so they retreated and the animals won the battle. Obama 08 HAHA

Mp913 The Battle of the cowshed is when Jones comes back to capture his farm. Snowball leads the animals and sends the birds to attack from above and the geese to attack on the ground. The geese failed to stop the men’s ambition. Then Snowball led a group of sheep along with Muriel and Benjamin in which were defeated. Snowball led out a squeal telling all animals to retreat into the farmhouse. As Jones and his men approached, Snowbell released the horses, cows, and the rest of the pigs. Unfortunaly, one sheep was killed but Boxer killed a stable-lad. The animals were victorious in the end but boxer was upset that he killed a human. Snowbell told him and all the animals that it had to be done for the future of the Animal farm. The animals then decided to create military achievements. Animal Hero, first-class for Snowball and Boxer and Animal Hero, second-class for the dead sheep.

Mr. Jones got together an army of men to get the farm back from the animals. As the men got close to the farm Snowball, the commander, sent 35 pigeons to attack the men from the air and a fleet of geese to attack the men on the ground. The geese pecked at the men but the men scared them off with their sticks and boots. Then Snowball led a group of sheep, Muriel and Benjamin. Then men once again fought them off. Snowball let out a squeal to tell every one to retreat. The men rushed into the yard as soon as they were well in side Snowball gave the order for the horses, cows, and the rest of the pigs to attack them, then everyone else attacked the men. Mr. Jones killed one sheep. Boxer killed a stable-lad. In the end the animals won the battle. Snowball said “No sentimentality comrade!” which means that do not cry over what you have done - you have done a good deed and be proud of it. They all decided to create military decorations: Animal Hero, first class Snowball and Boxer. Animal Hero second class for the dead sheep. They decided that the battle should be called The Battle of the Cowshed because it was an ambush from the cow shed. This all happeded on October 12. P.G. Tips

First Mr. Jones and his "army" started to shoot at the animals, killing some of them, but then the geese started to peck at the men. This didn't cause any disorder, because the men drove them off with sticks. Next the animals tried butting them, but still no sucsess. Then the men rushed after them, but the animals started chasing, biting and knocking over the men. In the end the animals were superior. S.P.E.

The pigeons warned snow ball that the farmers so snow ball ambushed them and ended the fight quickly. Boxer felt bad because he accidently kiled a stable boy. -Cernal Sanders

The pigeons informed snowball of the group of men, then Snowball prepared the animals for the fight. First he sent out the pigeons and geese to distract the men, then he brought out the bigger animals to gore, bite and kick the men. Even the cat hurt one man by biting him on the neck (ow!). - ''The Editor".

Snowball led an attack with the sheep, Muriel, and Benjamin. They stood there ground, bringing the men farther into the farm. The rest of the animal forces then appeared and cut the men off from escaping. After this, the animals charged. One of the sheep died from a shotgun blast, and Snowball was injured from the same shot. However, the men were driven off...nimrodRPB


 * Jones and all his men including half a dozen others from Foxwood and Pinchfield were walking toward the farm. The men were carrying sticks, except Mr. Jones was marching ahead with a gun. Mr. Jones and the other men were going try to take the farm back from the animals.** **Snowball quickly gave orders to the animals and in a couple of minutes the animals were at their post. Snowball launches his first attack in which all the pigeons flew around the men. Other animals started to attack the men. At some point, Snowball faked a retreat. The rest of the animals that were lying in ambush in the cowshed, charged at the men. Snowball charged at Mr. Jones. Mr. Jones fired his gun many times and the pellets scored bloody streaks along Snowball’s back. Without halting, Snowball flung his fifteen stone against Jones’s leg. Jones hurled into a pile of dung and his gun flew out of his hands. Boxer knocked out a stable-lad from Foxwood. When the men saw this, they dropped their sticks and tried to run.** **The animals chased the men out of the farm. The men retreated and ran out of the farm. The animals thought that the stable- lad was dead, but he wasn’t. The stable- lad ran away when the animals were looking for Mollie. The animals found Mollie hiding in her stall with her head buried in hay. When she heard the gunshots in the beginning of the battle, she fled to her stall. The animals decided to have a celebration. They run up the flag and “Beast of England” was sung many times. The sheep that had been killed was given a funeral. Snowball gave a little speech on the need for all the animals to be ready to die for Animal Farm, when the time came. The animals created a military decoration. The animals also decided to name the battle, “ the Battle of the Cowshed”. They also found Mr. Jones’s gun and decided that it would be fired twice a year. It would be fired on the anniversary of “ the Battle of the Cowshed”, and the Anniversary of the Rebellion.**
 * By Cookiesandmilk**

First, the pigeons told Snowball about the people coming towards the farm, after that Snowball rallied up all of the animals on the farm to attack. Snowball and his animals managed to intercept the other men and made them retreat. Unfortunately, by mistake Boxer hit one of the men to hard with his hoof and killed him. 0_0

Snowball studied Julius Caesar's writing so he could plan his attack. He wanted to be sure to know how a human attacks. As Jones arrives with his men Snowball had his first line of defense, the geese and the pigeons. Then the sheep, goats, Ben and Snowball attacked then pretended to retreat. The farmer and his men thought they have won. The horses, the pigs, and cows ambush the farmer and his men in a suprise attack. A boy was hurt by Boxer and Snowball wanted to attack farmer Jones himself. In the end the animals win and the humans run away scared. By Latte

Snowball read a book by Julius Caesar in Latin about warfare and imitated it. When Mr. Jones and the other farmers attacked Animal Farm all the pigeons flew above them and pooped on them. Then the geese came running out and pecked on their legs, but the men shooed them away. Then the sheep, Muriel, and Benjamin came running out and tried to butt then and kick them and trip them. But the people scared off the pigeons, geese, sheep, Muriel, and Benjamin so they thought that they had won. Mr. Jones and the other farmers went running into the barnyard and all the pigs came running up and attacked them from behind from where they were hiding. Snowball was leading them and also Boxer was there kicking them. reesie

In the battle of cowshed Mr. Jones comes back to the farm to fight the animals so that he can get his farm back. Mr. Jones bring 12 men holding sticks, Mr. Jones was the leading man of this fight holding a gun. Snowball one of the leading pigs gave most of the orders. When the men started to attack Snowball sent the pigeons to start attacking the men. Once he sent all the smaller animals at the men Snowball faked a retreat so that the men would follow them into the cowshed. All the animals were hiding in the cowshed waiting for the men to come in. when the men came in the men got very scared and started to retreat. Snowball charged at Mr. Jones, when Mr. Jones fired his gun in hit snowball in the back. Snowball then medially through his stone at Mr. Jones leg he fell in a pile of hay. When Mr. Jones was hit with Snowballs stone he lost possession of his gun. The animals that died were given a funeral and snowball gave a speech. The song “Beasts of England” was sung a lot that night. Twice every year Mr. Jones’ gun would be fired, Once for the battle of the cowshed and once for the rebellion. Chinese dumpling

=3. What is snowball's part in the "battle of cowshed?"=

Mp913 Snowball plans the attack for the animals directing their every move.

Snowballs’s part in the Battle of the Cowshed is to give orders to the animals and he fought. P.G. Tips

Snowball’s part in the battle was to plan where the animals were supposed to be. He learned this by studying books about Julius Caesar’s military campaigns. Obama 08 HAHA

Snowball gave orders and made up strategies for the war. T.money

It is to give the orders. S.P.E.

Animals fought for there freedom against the cruel humans, using only their wits and muscle...nimrodRPB

He acts as a general and organizes and tells them what to do. -Cernal Sanders

He organizes the animals and plans their attack.- The Editor.

Snowball was in charge of the defensive operations. He planned where the animals should be. By Cookiesandmilk

Snowball was the strategist, or "puppeteer" behind the animals actions. He coordinated the animals and controlled all of there positions, and actions. 0_0

Snowball planned and organized the whole battle but the most important role for him was his personal attack on Jones. It was crucial for him to study Julius Caesar's battles. By Latte

Snowball is the leader and he organized and planned it. He personally attacked Mr. Jones. reesie snowballs job was to direct the animals, he also plans whats should happen. =4. What "literary technique" do you think Orwell uses to cast doubt on the likelihood of a successful revolution?=

One literary technique that Orwell uses to cast doubt on the likelihood of a successful revolution is descriptive language. He does this by showing the reader that the other farmers would rather benefit from Jones loss of the farm than help him. Obama 08 HAHA

Mp913 Orwell uses irony and allegory for this political satire. Each of the animals represent a person or a group from the Russian revolution while the events that are accruing mock those in which occurred during the Russian revolution.

Orwell uses allegory and irony. The characters and events symbolize deeper political meanings – the Russian Revolution. He uses irony in the Battle of the Cowshed. The animals fight for freedom from the humans but more and more they are giving power to Napoleon and Snowball who are becoming tyrants. P.G. Tips Orwell uses discriptive writting to cast doubt on likelihood. He describes their actions in a way that will shows the character's intentions or affects of the actions that are not easily noticeable. T.money I think it is the men being more superior, and communism is the literary techniques, Orwell uses to cast doubts. S.P.E.

He thinks that men have the advantage since they have weapons like guns, that can cause more turmoil and damage than the animals. - The Editor

It seems that he thinks men are bette fighters and rulers. -Cernal Sanders

He thinks having a plan can lead to a successful revolution. By Cookiesandmilk

I think he literary technique that Orwell uses tries to interpret that men are far pre-eminent to the animals because they have weapons and technology which animals do not. 0_0

He shows that the humans have guns and other technology whilst the other animals have themselves.

Orwell gives Boxer feelings and empathy. Boxer hurts a boy and feels terrible at the same time Snowball says " a human is better dead than alive". This shows a potential problem that interferes with the unity of the group mentality. By Latte

The literary techniques Orwell uses to cast doubt on the likelihood of a successful revolution are irony and allegory. Irony is when something produces a result opposite something it was intended. Allegory is a story with two meanings. A literary meaning and a symbolic meaning. reesie

Orwell uses expressive writing to show events of the charters thought or movements not as easy to see as in a regular book. chinese dumpling
