Now that we're a little further in the book, I'd like you to choose another question to respond to. This time, in your response, please write 3-5 sentences, and spend a little more time on it. What I mean by that is pretend it's being graded for spelling, capitalization, etc. It's easy when we're online to not use standard English, but for classroom blog posts, I'd like you to focus on it. It's important to know what it's okay to not capitalize and when it isn't. For example, I don't capitalized anything in my personal emails to my friends. But I would never send an email to our principal without checking my capitalization. I want you to start being aware of your choices online.
Now, for the questions:
1. What do you think of Leo's choice to follow Stargirl? What does it make you think about him?
2. What do you think will happen next? Jerry Spinelli left us with sort of an ominous statement at the end of the chapter: "How could I have known that he would soon be challenged by a freckle-nosed homeschooler?"
3. Think again about Peet compared to Mica High. When Hillari Kimble and Wayne Parr are described, do you think of any similarities? Please don't name names, but feel free to comment on if you think there are similar leaders at Peet.

I think that Hillary is going to say something to star-girl about her singing happy birthday when the day before Hillary told her not to. I think she's a little mad that she did.
ReplyDeleteI think Stargirl is kind of odd. She is a tool. Everyone just uses her for their own purpose.
ReplyDelete1. I think Leo's choice to follow her was a bad choice because I think she knew he was going to follow her. It makes me think that he hasn't figured out Stargirl.
ReplyDelete1. I think that Leo should not follow her. she could attack him or kill him if she see's him.
ReplyDeleteBAM!
I think Leo is a little bit weird for following Stargirl. Especially since he follows her all afternoon. I don't know how anyone could follow someone for that long, I'd get bored after 10 minutes.
ReplyDeleteI think Leo is a stalker.
ReplyDeleteWell I think it's kinda wierd tht that Leo guy followed her. It's kinda like he was stalking her.
ReplyDeleteI think that Hillary is going to try to corner Stargirl because she is mad that Stargirl figured out how to avoid singing directly to her. I also think that Leo is going to ask stargirl to go on hotseat, because he wants to figure out what she is thinking. I think Hillary is going to try to start a war with Stargirl by making up rumors and all sorts of junk up about her.
ReplyDeleteI think that Leo is stalking. He is trying to get Stargirl to get on the hot seat show. But he is taking it to extreme measures.
ReplyDelete>>>>>>i think leo shouldn't have followed star girl that was a bad thing to d he must not know what star girl got in storage for him<<<<<<<<<

I THINK HE IS A STALKER.sorry caps was on. i thought that leo was a girl who like porkupines. I think he should follow her again and see wheres she lives.
ReplyDeleteI think that it was a little creepy that Leo tried to follow Stargirl but i also kind of understand why he did it. I think that there is going to be something big happening between Hilary and Stargirl. She's probably going to try to expose her as a fake. I think there are similarities between Peet students and Mica students.

ReplyDeleteI think Leo's choice to follow Star Girl was a bad choice cause she probably is going to figure out he is. Also I understand why Leo is following her to know more about this weird new student. I think peet and Mica students are nothing alike in the book.
ReplyDeleteThanks, everyone, for your comments. For some reason it doesn't creep me out that much that Leo followed Stargirl. I guess I just get a good vibe from him. I'm also interested in what Hillari Kimble will do next, and if Stargirl will care. I'm glad to see that so many of you think that Mica is different than Peet. My junior high experience was a lot like Mica High, except we had more school spirit. People were still pretty wary of anything that was a little bit different.
ReplyDelete1. I don't know if it was all that creepy, but i think it was probably a bad decision on his end. If someone would have found out, think of what could have happened. At least stargirl wouldn't of minded if she caught him (which i think she secretly did)

ReplyDeleteI think He is a curious guy. I think what he means is his popularity will go down while stargirls goes up.
ReplyDeleteI really don't think there are any similarities to people in our school.
ReplyDeleteI think she is a stalker and i dont think she should of followed stargirl.
ReplyDeletefor the hot seat thing:
ReplyDeleteI think that the jurry should'nt have got all p.o'd. I dont think it was right to embarrass her on live tv. I thought that everybody liked her, but now they ditch her and make fun of her. If you dont have anything nice to say, dont say anything at all. (>*_*)>
Hot seat
ReplyDeleteFirst off, i want to say that kids can be cruel and that they don't know their limits. I just don't get why they got so mad. I mean, she isn't hurting anyone and it doesn't really affect them if you think about it. I just think that they are mad because she is different, which is ok.
Question 3
I think Mica High and Peet are similar yet not. There are people that follow each other and try to keep a "reputation." There are also people who do there own thing and I respect that. It is cool.
