Think and respond

1. That winning isn't everything and she could figure out to win things on her own
2. In the end and beginning of the story Mari felt like she needed to find a way to make her project look realistic and special.
3. You need to be dependent on other people because maybe something bad might happen or you need advice for something. You could be in a bad situation like Mari and need to be dependent of other people.
4. Teachers should judge students projects on how creative and how much they thought out the project. I know this because, most students who get good grades use their creativity and thoughts.
5. I flipped through the book before I read it. I looked at he problem Mari had and guessed what was going to happen. I did this because I like to know what happens before it begins.
