Part 3. Text Connections.
1.I Would connect the text "Im happy that my grandfather can run & start his buisness." to when my mother came back of the hospital. I would connect it becanuse i was really happy that she came back well. I was really happy that she can get back up & go to work because it is really important for her & me. I felt very lonley for 3 days because my little sister kept on asking me "where is mom, is she coming back?" that really made me sad I really didnt want her to know. But she jumped in excitment when my mom came back. This is how Ned & Me are similar when we were both kids and we kind of suffer the same thing.
2. In the book i would connect the text "I think he is taking responsabilitys for his actions" to what my mom said to my brother. I would connect it because my mom seen my brother improve in school, he has been doing his homework, he hasnt been late, & he has been participating in class. Ned has been responsable & do his homework. I would connect Ned & my brother because they both thought about the changes they were going to do & how, also they both saw what they did before was wrong & what they are doing now is right. This is how I would connect Ned & my brother.
Part 4. Inferring/Conclusions. As I was reading the book Ned took the gift that his sister gave to his mom for christmas and took it to the store. I know that Ned is a theif because he is going to exchanged the the underpants from his mother and say that he bought the gift. But I know that his sister Arnetta will say that she bought it. If I were Ned i wouldnt do that & get a gift on my own. This is why I think Ned is a theif. Ned steals his brother & sisters stuff. Ned likes to show off alot. Ned isnt responsable. Part 5. Questioning/Wondering
1.Did Ned really change?
I think Ned didnt changed & he is only doing it to get attention & to get complaments from everyone that he is responsable,helpful,and nice to his parents. Ned did changed not only to get attention but he wants everyone to say nice things about him & say that he is a good kid. Ned didnt noticed when he changed but now he realizes that he is a smart,nice & helpful kid espacially to his friends & family.

Part 6. Predicting 1.So far in the book Ned was walking out of school and President Bob "i know exactly how it is to have to sit in school all day and have to hold your water." Then Ned was walking with they guy to the beach and they began to hunt. He was saying that he was soppose to find a fossil for him. I dont think that Ned will find a fossil in time because he kept on digging and digging. Ane Bob was getting so tired he felt like he was melting in the sun. It turned out that Ned had found a fossil that was black, and he had found 2 more. Presidant Bob was supprised. 2.As I was reading the book Ned had been acting very weird around everyone. But his parents think he is starting to take responsability for his actions. He had been nice to his parents & his sister was saying that he eigther ate or drank something that had made him like that. Ned had been doing his homework & taking responsability. I think that Ned didnt ate or drink anything that made him like that, I think that he had changed & finnaly noticed what before was worng & what he is doing now is right.
