**week 9/21 Emily Windsnap and the Monster from the Deep RR **

 *  1. I predict that the conflict will be external and will be character versus society. I predict that when Emily is swimming a monster will come up and take her down to the base of the Bermuda Triangle. **


 *  2.My favorite character is Emily Windsnap because she is only a half time mermaid, this means she is human out of water and mermaid in water! That would be so cool! She is very curious, nice, and a very good swimmer. "What? Tell me!" Emily asked.She is probably a protagonist because of how nice and upbeat she is. I predict se will be dynamic in the end by being a half mermaid in the beginning and a full one at the end. She is probably a major in this story because the title is her name and she is mainly the one telling the story in this book from what i've read. **


 *  3.I noticed that two people are telling a story, Mandy Rushton and Emily Windsnap. So in this book Emily's story is ttyped in a different font then Mandy's. **


 *  4. Crease- noun. A line made by pressing, folding or wrinkling. He made a crease in my new dress! **


 *  5. Yes, because of its cool and interesting storyline. This is a fantasy book and so I will use it for an upcoming fantasy book commercial. **

**week of Halloween Wait Till Helen Comes RR **

 * 1. The conflict in this book I predict will be that Helen is controlling Heather but nobody will believe Molly when she tries to stop heather from visiting the graveyard. This conflict is external, character vs. society. **


 * 2. My favorite character is Molly because she is easily scared, shy at times, and not quite exited about the family's move. "You heard what Mr. Simmons said about snakes and poison ivy!" She is probably a protagonist because she is trying to protect her little sister from a ghost. She is also major because this book is about her struggle to protect Heather from Heather. I also predict she will be a dynamic character, scared of the graveyard at the beginning and not so scared after. **


 * 3. I noticed that the author put a very interesting sentence at the end of every chapter so that you would want to read more. **


 * 4. lecture- noun. A speech that is open to the public. Mom is going to give me a huge lecture about lying! **


 * 5.Yes, because the storyline is spooky, great for Halloween! **

**Week of November 17, 2010 Bridge to Teribithia **
===**1. The conflict I predict in tis book will be that when Jess and his new friend are making Teribithia a neighbor will get mad and make them stop. This conflit will be external, character vs. society. **=== ===**2. My favorite character is Leslie because she is so different and is okay with that. She is probably a protagonist and a major in this story. I predict that she will be a static character. "I know, it coulb be a magic country like Narnia, and the only way you can get in it is by swinging on this enchanted rope." **=== ===**3. An author's secret I noticed was that a picture is illustrated in every chapter, showing a reader what it would look like in real life. **===

**<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 140%;">5. Yes, because I think this is a very touching book and inspirational too. **

 * <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 140%;">2.My favorite character is Repunzel. She is helpless and naive. she is probably a protagonist because she is very nice.

 * <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 140%;">2. My favorite character is Aria because she used to lived in Iceland and she is very confident. She is probably a protagonist because she isn't trying to hurt anybody but ends up hurting herself. "Just remember you are icelandic Aria now. And that no one can change that!" She is probably going to be a major in this story because this book is all about her and her friends. She, i predict, will be a dynamic character, as in at first she will not know who A is but then she will figure out who it is by the end of the book. **
 * <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 140%;">3. The interesting author's secret I noticed was that the author, in each chapter, switches the point of view. Like, one chapter will be Hanna, the next Aria. **

This is because the group of girls are facing the life that comes with the person that calls themselves "A". Like looking behind shoulders or locking their doors at night, their lives are twisted after their best friend, Alison, is killed. **
 * <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 140%;">2. My favorite character is still Aria because she is very confident and unique. "Okay, Icelandic Aria can be brainy too!" She is probably both antagonist and protagonist because she does things to help her friends but also hurts herself along the way. She is a major because the story is about her and her friends living life in the crazy world after Alison goes missing. She is also dynamic because she goes from, in the beginning, not knowing if Alison is dead or alive to, at the end, knowing she is dead. **
