The boys from little mexico by Steve WilsonI predict that Octavio and O.J will get along again and stop fighting. Also i predict that the coach will make sure that they play as a team and not just show off. the direct quotation that supports my prediction is " Whats wrong? coach flanigan asked, turning to face O.J. Its octavio! O.J shouted. He doesnt pass it to anyone! i've been open and he won't pass me the ball. The coach nodded. i'll talk to him. But you need to put your jersey on right now or you're out of the game." this quotation supports my prediction because coach says that he will handle it. So in that case evrerything is gonna be alright between them two.
beautiful darkness by Kami i predict that Ethan will try to go back will Lena that she will become dark but she wont want him. the quotation that supports my prediction is "then tell me to go .if that's what you really want. she stopped walking and turned slowly to look at me then she said i don't want you here Ethan"(209). this quotation supports my prediction because lena saids that she doesn't wanted him there will Ethan wants to with her
Homeboyz by Alan Lawrence Sitomer I predict that Teddy is going to get moved to another type of room/place because in the book it states "The SHU-the Special Handling Unit-was a tough place to do time even for hardened delinquents Concrete walls. Seatless toilets. Stifling air. Wretched smells. Even the priests avoided visiting this area of juvenile jails if they could" (pg. 42). This quote supports my prediction because they are explaining how that area and I thought that he was going to get moved since they were explaining.
Fall Out by Todd Strasseri predict that they are going to get bombed now. "Go down Ronnie, but Scotts dad said to.... GO! My feet rise as if i was flying away. he was stopping me." it supports my answer because it sounds like he is going to get bombed.
Gym candy by Carl Deuker ''Football is what i like''pg 15
This supports my quote by mick not wanting to do any other sport because that is what makes him important and strong.A predection i have is that mick will accomplish what he said to not make any mistakes out in the footbal field.
I think next victor will talk about how his parents think hes not weak. i say this because when bull was talking he said his dad thinks hes weak and every time bull tells victor what his parents think of bull victor talks about what his parents think about him and its always differnt or something good on what his parents think of him so thats why i think he is gonna talk about that.this is shown in the story when,"dont you ask me about sam dont you ask me nothin you moron each word is delivered with a matching punch".this shows bulls granddad is rude to him.
The Hunger Games by Suzanne CollinsI predict that katniss and the others are going to start thier trianing to survive and get better i think this because Katniss said ''the actual training rooms are below ground level of our building. with these elevators, the ride is less than a minute.'' P93 This supports my prediction becauase she says the trianing rooms are under.
"monster" by Walter Dean Myers i predict that Steve will stay in jail and be accused of something that he didn't do Williams (the cop) says "we need you to come down to the precinct with us just a few questions,some clown said you were involved with that drug store stickup just before Christmas"
Cracked by K.M WaltonI predict that the 2 main characters, Bull and Victor, will learn to get along if they learn more about each other and how they both have complicated lives. I feel like this will happen because since they are both sharing a room at a hospital for trying to commit suicide, they will see that they have similar problems.
Snitch is the book im reading and I think what will happen next is that julia is gonna become an addict to a certain drug cause she joined the gang and she said she would never join a gang. it says "I will never join a gang" but now shes in the cribs.
True Believer by Virginia Euwer WolffI predict that the main character, LaVaughn, will end up asking Jody to formal. LaVaughn says in her head, "Jody, there is a dance and we could go together...I feel more determained"(82). This shows that laVaughn is feeling brave about asking jody to formal becuase everytime she saw him, that is what she thought in her mind.
Goa 2 living the dream by Robert Rigby i predict that famous soccer player Santiago Muñez will play for Real madrid.
pg.10 "Santiago who was standing like a rabbit frozen in a car's headlights, his eyes wide with amazement as he tried to take in what Glen had just told him" this clearly shows that glen Santiago's manager told him that he will travel to spain to play for Real Madrid.
My SideBook: My side.
Author: Norah McClintock.
I think the police will not do anything with the bullying case, because it used to be like that. Maybe she is going to suicide; she had tried before to do it.
"So even thought the incident, didn't take place on school property, we can still notify the police about or system being hacked..." -Page 45 (The police can investigate about the hacker but no about the bullying case).
"...one morning when there's no one in the house, I go to the bathroom, find a brand-new bottle of aspirin and swallow the whole thing." -Page 51 (She was trying to suicide)
incantation by Alice Hoffman. I think that Estrella de Madrigal is going to be talking about her future and that one day she is going to find out things about her life she didn't know. "He was kind and thoughtful; some girl would have been so lucky to have him as her husband"- page 48 Estrella is talking about her future in that sentance and she is saying how she wants to marry Luis but she doesn't know if he wants to marry her that anyone would love to marry him.
From "The Reptile House" by Lemoney Snicket, i think that Uncle Monty will die because the passage states "...but i promise you sunny survives this particular episode. It's Uncle Monty, unfortunatly, who will be dead, but not yet."-page 24 (first page of chapter 3). It was a huge indicator that something exciting will happen soon.
Croak"she held the weapon as if it were made of the brittlest glass, turning it over in her hands, she never would have thought it possible to fall in love with an inanimate object, but in this cases, love didn't follow any particular set of rules". (pg 58) I predict someone is going to be murder because its talks about a weapon.
title= maradona author= diego maradona
i think that diego is going to go to a pro team and he is going to be one one of the teams best player at a young age and he is going to become one of the best players of the world.
Clockwork Princess by Cassandra ClareFor what I read so far I predict that Will will discover where Mortmain took Tessa " He stared at her. You Don't imagine-Cadair Idris? He knows those mountains, Will, she said. And he would find it all funny, a great job on you and the Nephilim. He has taken her exactly where you fled from. He has taken her to our home."
