I think Jess will lose to the new girl in her class but she will keep on trying until she beats her new class mate.
I also think she will get lost in the woods and her friend figures out that she was kidnapped and find out who kidnapped her.
I agree with heba because I think thier going to go on a journey to find the bridge to terabithia and there going to get lost and then they will figure out where is it and go there.After they come back everyone will be amazed
i dissagree with heba because they will find a place called terabithiaba and hang out there i also think lieslie will die.
In addition to what Heba, Hamzah, and Yusuf I agree to them all because I think that they will get lost and they will find a place called Terabithia and hang out there.
ummkatrionna agree with Heba that Jess will lose to Leslie; however, I think when they created Terabithia, Leslie encourges Jess to become a better runner.
I argree with heba.I think that jess is going to be her friend, and she is going to die or get lost in the woods. When he is at the art museum with his teacher.
In chapter two Jessi wants to be an artists and his father dosen't want him to be. Jessi doesn't understand why his father is upset with him about wanting to be an artist. He loves his drwings even though no ne don't like it. As he sit there drawing in his bed his mother calls him and tells him to milk the cow. When he was done milking the cow his father came home and asked him how come he didn't milk the earleir. He said because he was busy.
Katrionna, you must write in this blog to get credit for your comments.
This is what Katrionna posted on her blog:
The first chapter was about how Jessie wants to win the boy's track olympics. He has never won before. They have started this for the 1,2,3,4,and 5 grades.The reason for this was because the older middlle school kids keep taking over the sports equiptment. The school can't afford any sport equipment for any other grades. When the elemetry students try to play with the balls the older kids take over it. So that's why the elementry kids started this racing track. Jessie He had to listen tto his older sister. When Jessie came in he sat at the table smelling very bad. His little sister told her mom that he smells and that his face needs to be washed. He didn't listen so his mother yelled at him so then he listen. After breakfeast his two older sister watched the dishes and cleaned the kitchen. The sisters asked their mother if they can still go shopping with their friend. They were allowed and had $2.50 each. They said thanks mom and left. THat was the end of the chapter I loved it, it was wonderful.
Great comments so far!
We've learned that Jess likes to race, and he likes to draw. What else do we know about this character? Does he remind you of another character that you've read about (text-text connection) or anyone you know (text-self connection)?
In addition to Heba, Hamza, Yusuf, and Katrionna i also think that leslie is going to die and that when they go to the other part of the place i think that they are going to imagine what ever they want. I also think that they might build a bridge and call it the bridge to Terabithia. I also disagree with Heba because i think that when they go to the woods they will find their way back and Jess and Leslie will not be kidnapped.

ummkatrionna agrees that Jess will lose to Leslie; however when they created Terabithia in the woods, I think Leslie will help Jess to run faster.
I agree with nada that leslie is going to die and they are going to imagine what ever they want.I disagree with heba i dont think she is going to be kidnapped.In adition to what hamza,,yusuf,and heba I agree with all of them she is going to get lost in the woods and their going on a bridge to teribethia.
The main chraceters in this story is Jessie and leslie. What makes me think that is Jessie is trying to win the fastest runner, leslie in the race this year. That's because leslie has been winning every year and wants to a least win this year and from this on.
