Garvey and Edwin's Lessons - F Block

Justify your answers with evidence from the text. Please use proper spelling and grammar. No text speak.

Laura! You make a great point.

Elena said...

No* and that was for Emily(:

Andre G said...

I didn't put quotations around the word friend. Did I?

Macia said...

Nick-
Well your cat may debate but have you PERSONALLY learned anything from them?

Peter said...

I aggree Emily, Peter didn't have to beat Cole. I think he needs the circle justice not as a victim, but as an offender.

Maddie said...

Emiloy i completley agree with you, it was not necassery for Peter to start beating up Cole, I didnt get that!

Stacey said...

Victoria when he returns than he will know if he really changed inside :)

Ally said...

i like your point ms.sullivan, it sounded like Garvey

Laura said...

Nick...are you saying your cat dances the squirrel dance?! And Andre...you're a tad lost(: read the comments before.

Elena said...

Victoria! That was my point in class the other day! It just distracts him from his anger it doesnt take it away!

Mrs. Sullivan said...

Esteice, you're right that Cole currently seems like a better person than Peter, but think about where Cole was when he first started the healing process. Peter is just beginning his healing. It's taken Cole over a year to get where he is now.

Clara(: said...

Esteice I kind of agree, but, if some kid beat the poop out of you like until you BLED and had SEVERE damage done to you, I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be like OHH IT'S FINE NO PROBLEM HUN! You'd be pretty peeved, I mean maybe I'm just a stubborn person but I don't think I would have given Cole a chance to show me he's changed, I'd just want him in jail forever.

Maddie said...

Andre you didnt put Quotes around the word friend, i just saw that post. (:

Nick said...

Yeah I have

Stephanie said...

Victoria, I think he's just going to have to find other ways to get rid of his anger when he returns home.

Anonymous said...

Which is?

Brittany(: said...

THE END. <333 TOUCHING SPIRIT BEAR. :DDD

Emily said...

Victoria I think it will be really hard for him to stay like the way he is on the island now but I don't think he will go back to his old ways because he learned to look on the happy side of things.

Victoria G said...

Elena, Exactly! So wont this have been a waste if he returns and just gets angry again?

Nick said...

Laura I mean from what I have seen they put up a pretty good argument

Ally said...

the book had a bad end!

Stacey said...

Well Mrs.Sullivan thats true but Cole learned a lot just by the dances he did. I dont know if a squirrel would teach him much.

Andre G said...

Wrapping it all up. I still think the most important thing was the dances. And Maddie is still my friend (:

Clara(: said...

AGREED, ALLY. I WAS SEVERELY DISAPPOINTED.

Elena said...

Well Eric, i dont know what Cole should do everyday, my point was that he will be mad when he leaves the island, i have no clue how to help that kid!
