Malaika-Discussion Director

1. Why do the children like to give the substitute teacher a hard time?
my answer: I think this is because they find it amusing and they are tired of having substitutes and they want a real teacher for once.
other students: I think this is because the other students want a permanent teacher who will stay with them and not leaver every two days.

2. How did you feel when Marcy was on the bench during gym class?
me: I felt kind of bad for her because she had to watch all the other kids play volleyball and she couldn't participate. I also felt mad at her because she had a not very good reason to not participate and she could participate if she wanted to.
other students: I didn't really feel anything because it is her fault she doesn't participate, she could participate if she wanted to and her reason is not very good.

3. How and why do you think Marcy came up with the excuse "the cat ate my gym suit" 
me: I think she must have come up with that because she didn't want to participate and she may have come up with this excuse at the last minute and didn't really have time to think about it.
other students: She might have came up with that using the exercise "my dog ate my homework" and she just transformed it and it became "my cat ate my gym suit"

4. Why do you think Marcy is so insecure?
me: I think Marcy is so insecure because she is really fat and she has no friends so she thinks that everyone hates her and she is ugly, so she is so pessimistic about everything. Also her dad is mean to her.
other students: I think this is because her father always shouts at her.

5. What do you think will happen next?
me: I think that she might become girlfriend and boyfriends with Joel, and get some friends because of Smedley.
other students: I think she will get more confident and she will get some friends and stand up to her father. She might also start a diet and exercising and will get thinner.
