Answer each question below by fully explaining and using specific details from the text for support.
2. What do you think about the ending? If you were the author, would you have written the resolution the same way?
3. What do you think would happen if a sequel or part two of your book were written? Briefly summarize what you think would happen in the next book.
4. Imagine that The Skin I'm In is being made into a movie and you have been hired as the casting director. Choose three characters from your book, state which famous person would play each character, and explain why you made each choice. The famous people that you choose do not HAVE to be actors; they may be athletes, musical artists, etc.
1.I would say a 4 because it is a good book but i think that if it had more pages it would be better ...
ReplyDelete2.Yea because at the end Maleeka stand's up to charlese and she says call me by my name and i thought that is right you should never have to get bully...
3.I think that maleeka would be more free and then the twin would leave her alone and john john would be all nice to her because there is nobody to teases her so that's what I think..
4.i think one would be Maleeka Madison it would be beyonce because she plays in many movies and i think that it would be good for her to play for her. For char i think it would be jennifer lopez because she is not mean but she sometimes wants her way but that is the other one of it :) <3
1.If I were to rate The Skin I'm In on a five star rating chart I would say a four and a half because the book is really relaxing and I understand her feelings with some people such as John John when he "picks on her " and Char when she is bribing Maleeka and acting like her friends for good grades.
ReplyDelete2.I think the ending was really good when Car moved away and Maleeka beating up those kids up just for john john and Caleb and every thing I thought it was so very interesting. If I was the author i would definitly keep the ending the same way because i really enjoyed it and it reminded me of like heroes when the good guy wins that good hereo was Maleeka and then Char was the bad guy then john john was bad but then he turned good.
3.I think that it would be as good as the first one or even better.I think it would go like this :after Maleeka told on Char then Char moved but Char would come back with more of her family trying to get back at Maleeka. But at the end after all her pranks they go to court for destress and for damaging things the Maleeka wins and Char goes to jail. The end.
4.If I was the director for the movie I would pick Maleeka, John John, and Caleb. Maleeka would be Rhianna because shes so lovable and if some one picked on her then she would do what Maleeka did. think about her dad with her little mirror John John would be Chris Brown because at times he can act rude when really he can be nice like when Maleeka and him were walking down the hallway and then he told her that basicly he was just jealous of her. And Caleb would be Wiz Kalifla because he can be really nice just like when Caleb gave Maleeka the poem he wrote her and he would be the perfect choice because he can act to.
i think that would be a good idea because in the text she is acting like rihanna so i think that is a good example for maleeka yea and chris brown because johnjohn really likes maleeka and rihanna really like chrisbrown
Deleteyeah John John was sort of hitting on Maleeka and Chris Brown sort of hits on Rhianna so its almost a perfect match for the Characters
DeleteI agree with Jade because your right. Maleeka tries her best to make herself feele better like Rhianna would with her music.
DeleteYeah no one should have to go through getting bullied like Maleeka did when Char and John John would kinda bully her ITS NOT RIGHT!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteQ1. I would give a five star scale because, the story was perfect but I don't like when they bully Maleeka and even though they bully it's steal happy ending so I would give a five star scale Q2. I would written the same because, it's all back in normal but Char she is the only one that is not back in normal and I think that Char would be out of school. Q3. I think would happen next in the book is that Char would be back in normal and Caleb and Maleeka would be b.f and g.f and no one would bully them anymore because it's all back in normal Q4. I would pick Nicki Manaj as Char and Rhianna as Maleeka and Chris Brown as Caleb because, I think they would be perfect to a characters and they are all good singers and I think they are good at acting too and I think that Rhianna and Chris Brown would be perfect together like Caleb and Maleeka and no one would disturb.
ReplyDelete1. I would rate The skin i'm in as five stars because it teaches the readers a lesson and that is important thing to include in a book in my opinion. Also the story is enjoyable.
ReplyDelete2. Yes i would have written the same ending because i like that Maleeka finally stands up to Charleese and that Charleese gets into trouble for once.
3. In the next book I think it would be about how much Maleeka learned from her experiences with charleese.
4. The 3 characters i am casting are Maleeka, Charleese, and Miss Saunders. I would cast Maleeka as Nikki Manage because she is really black and Maleeka is discribed as really black. I would cast Charleese as Jennifer Lopez because she is pretty and has carmel colored skin. I would cast Miss Saunders as Abby Lee Miller because she is fat and she is loud like Miss Saunders.
1. I would rate The Skin I'm in a 5 because at the end I thought Char was going to get in a fight with Maleeka for squealing on her. Char called her a ugly faced loser and left, Juju sent Char to Alabama with her grandparents. I think this because the author said" You the one who pushed me to mess up Miss Saunder's room, you and the twins" I say feeling relieved. Char gives me a hard look. "Look at you two ugly-faced losers" she says. A week passes. When the twins return for suspension they tell everyone Juju sent Char to to Alabama to live with her parents.
ReplyDelete2.I think the ending was great because Char couldn't mess with Maleeka anymore, Caleb and Maleeka were friends again and Maleeka went back to school. I think this because the author said" Juju sent Char to to live with her grandparents in Alabama. That is the nicest thing anybody ever did for me" Maleeka says. I take Caleb's letter and put it in my backpack , and we walk down the hall together.' Welcome back, Miss Madison", Miss Saunders says giving me a wink.
3. I think Caleb and Maleeka will be together if there was a sequel to this book. Also the twins and Maleeka won't be friends, Maleeka will hang out with people who lifts her up.
4.Maleeka, Char, and the twins. I think the actor for Maleeka will be Keke Palmer because they are similiar to me in some ways and i think she will do that role very well. The actor for Char would be Gabriella Union because she did a good role in the movie bring it on as the mean girl and i think shes fit for Char. The actors for the twins would be Tia and Tamera Mory because they can connect to the twins and they could be good for following Char the leader.
1. I would give this book 4 1/2 star's. I give this book this rate because, it had a lot of great detail that definitely explained everything that needed to be explained, without over-doing it. i wouldn't give it 5 stars because it wasn't necessarily my type of book that i would usually read. I like horror, paranormal, mystery, ghost, monster-fantasy books. This book was almost the total opposite type of book.
ReplyDelete2. Hmmm...I don't want to be negative or anything, i was kind of hoping for the book to have a bad ending. If it did have a bad ending, then it possibly would have a sequel and leave a little more suspense to keep you waiting to read the sequel. No, I wouldn't have kept the resolution the same. I wouldn't because, once again, I wanted the book to have a bad ending.
3.In the sequel of this book, I think that Char would come back to the city from Louisiana because she supposedly got better grades and wasn't messing with people so much, but when she gets back, she starts on her "bad streak" again.
4. If this book was made into a movie, I would assign Nicki Manaj as Maleeka because Nicki Manaj changes her style a lot like Maleeka tries to and people sometimes critisize on the way they look sometimes. I would assign Haley Williams as Sweets because they are both really nice people and always have great things to say to people. I would make Taylor Lautner to play as Caleb because they look the same and they can be fiesty at times but nice when not needed to be fiesty.
1: I would give the book 5/5 because,it a great book it show the really think's that happen in people life and she brought the story to live .For example :when the boys wanted to have fun with her that what happen in movies .2:No I would no change the end because,the end was amazing because she won the contest and she had money to pay the school and if I was author I would not coming to thought for that ending .3:I think it was not be awesome like the first one because char gonna and maleeka have no one to pick on her because she save john--john life .4: If It was a movie the people who how play maleeka would be play by the girl from precious.the girl who could play maleeka mother could be played by precious mother . Caleb by the cute boy from father like son.I pick them because they have the same personalty how they act in movies like the people in the story.
ReplyDelete1. I would rate the Skin I'm in as a 5 because this book talks about how Maleeka and Char and Maleeka's other friends get into a bunch of trouble. For example it says that Char made Maleeka burn down the classroom.
ReplyDelete2. Yes I would keep the ending the same because this is very happy because Miss Madison returns back.
3.I think Miss Madison would throw a party.
4. I choose Caleb,Maleeka , Miss Madison. Miss Madison would play as Beonce because she is very nice.Caleb would play as Kendall Knight from BTR Big time rush cause he is cute and Maleeka would like him.Maleeka would play as Fergie cause she is as nice as Maleeka.
1. I would rate "The Skin I'm In" as 5. I would rate this book as 5 stars, because, this is book was really really good. And usually I don't find books that interest me. So, I was surprised how good this book turned out to be. Also, the author made really good contrast words. And had very good vocabulary words, It made me imagine them in my head while I read.
ReplyDelete2.What I thought about the books ending was, it wasn't how I expect it to end how It did. I thought It ended too nicely. Like, in the story when people always got beat up. I thought something really good or bad might have had happened. I would change the part where Miss. Saunders and Maleeka are in the classroom hugging at the end. I just thought that was like too happy. So I thought It might end with them winning the lottery. Or Maleeka finally going to Sweet's school.
3. I think I would have Maleeka go to the school Sweet's did. And I would have Maleeka's mom win the lottery to pay off the fines and her bills. And Caleb and Maleeka will go out.
4.I pick Caleb, Char, And John-John. I would have picked Kevin Hart to be John-John. I say that because Kevin Hart is really funny and makes jokes. And so does John-John, but he makes rude jokes about people. I would pick the popular girl from "Another Cinderella Story" for Char. I also would pick Austin for Austin And Aly for Caleb. I say that because, he is nice and sweet like Caleb is.
