In this story, there is a kid who is 12 years old and soon to be a teenager. He is a very popular kid at school. The setting for this story so far is in the kid’s house and The New Year is about to start in a couple hours. Some character traits for him are goofy and silly because it was 11:30 at night and he was running around with his dog, throwing confetti   everywhere and eating a lot of unhealthy snacks without his parents’ permission. Another character trait for this example is that he is really energetic kid

Michael is still mad about how he can’t play for the rest of the season, so he decided to go back visit his parents again back in North Carolina. When he got there, Michael got a words of the wiser moment when his dad found out that he was playing when he is not supposed to. His father said I know
how much you want to play and help the team win more games, but sometimes you have to do what’s best for yourself and not for the team. This might effect the character because maybe now Michael will not try to play as much as when he got hurt and kept telling the management team that he needed more minutes.

Michael has already played three games in the season and he is already injured and hurt his foot. When he heard that he wasn’t able to play for the next six months, he was not very jubilant about it. Michael kept protesting and telling the management team that he still wanted to play. In March, they finally made a deal were Michael was only going to play 14 minutes for the whole game each game. Even though, he still gets to play, he is very mad that he is not getting enough playing time. 2 weeks after Michael was able to play again, he had a doctors appointment. The doctor told him that his foot had gotten worse and that he needs to take a break for the rest of the season. If he continues to play, he won’t be able to play basketball anymore.

10/11     Michael’s first game actually sold out. At the draft when the Bulls announced they were drafting him, everyone started clapping and doing thumbs up. During the story Michael had a words of the wiser moment. His college coach had went to the game and when he saw that all of those people at the arena were there for Michael, he told him that even though all those people are there and that he was the most payed rookie in the NBA at the moment, he should never take that for granted. The latest life lesson in this was to appreciate what you have and never take the most valuable things in your life for granted and never take advantage of it.

10/10/17. Michael finally got drafted to a team. He was the third pick for the 1984 NBA draft. He was drafted by the Chicago Bulls. The bulls didn’t really have that much of a good record and they were last place in the Eastern Conference with a record of 27 wins and 55 losses. The Bulls hoped that Jordan would help get the team better and hopefully get them to the playoffs and win a championship. The past five seasons, the bulls have been losing a lot of fans and not a lot of people are going to the games anymore. The whole Bulls team and management is hoping that with Jordan on the team they’ll win a championship, get more people to come see games, and regain their fans.

In the story Michael had an aha moment because when he was choosing what college to go to he was looking at colleges away from his home and family. His parents didn’t really want him to go far away from home. Then he realized that If he was going to move to LA or Virginia that he wasn’t really going to see his parents a lot so he decided to go to a college close to his family and that is why he had picked UNC. This may change things because now Michael can spend more time with his family

9/28 At the biggining when Jake moved to his new house and went to his new school he wasn't being himself because he tought that the kids wouldn't like him, but that didn't help him at all. The haha moment that he had was that he realized that he should have been himself instead of not being himself. This changed things because now that Jake is being himself, he is making more friends that when he wasn't being himself.

9/27 When Wild Boy and Josh had a fight, Wild Boy had won and had hurt Josh really bad. The aha moment in this part of the story was that wild boy had realized that what he did wasn't something he was supposed to do and that he should never do this again to other people. This made Wild Boy change because the day after the figh, he went up to Josh and told him he was sorry and this was something he didn't really do that often to people. Because of Wild Boy's apology, him and josh turned out to be friends.

9/26Jake is now friends with Wild Boy. A couple days ago Josh[who one the kids that was looking at Jake's family moving their stuff in their new house the other day] was having a fight with Wild Boy because they had hit into an argument at school so they decided to fight outside of Josh's house, but what he doesn't know is that Wild Boy is number one in the country at Karate for kids under 15. Then, Josh went to Jake's house to ask Alexis if she wanted to hang out and told her about how him and Wild Boy were going to fight in a little bit. That is when Alexis told Josh that Wild Boy was number one in the country for Karate and that he has beat people twice his size. Now Josh is a little bit scared, but he is still confident that he can beat him.

9/25Jake is finally starting to get along well with Wild Boy. Sometimes They sit together at lunch and talk about games or things they like to do. Even though they are getting a little bit along, Jake is still a little bit scared around wild boy because even if he is your friend and you by accident say something as a joke and he doesn't think it's a joke, he will still beat you up. At first when wild boy didn't really have any friends, the librarian was the one that would talk to him or have lunch together sometimes to make him feel better.

9/19Right now in the book Jake is still trying to make more friends. At lunch, he plays with this group of kids who like to make paper airplanes and everyday they race their paper planes. There is this kid who the kids call him wild boy, but his real name is bobby. They call him wild boy because he always misbehaves and he has a tattoo that he tatted himself.He doesn't have that many friends, but when Jake tried to talk to him, he picked him up of the floor and told him to leave. Wild boy is one best karate kids in America, but nobody knows that except Jake because the Liberian knew about this, but she never told anybody that because no one ever talks to him and because Jake was the first one to go to him and The librarian told him because of that. She hasn't told other kids because she doesn't want anyone to be more scared than they are of him now.

Right now, in my book I am at the part where Jake is trying to make friends. He just moved to Maryland and he is going to a new school so he doesn't have that many friends. At his old school, he was known as the coolest kid in school and when he told everyone he was leaving, the school made a that a holyday just dedicated to him. This is what he is trying to show all the kids at his new school that he is a really awesome kid. Jake wants to continue to do the same thing he did at his old school in his new school which is to be popular and to have a lot of friends

Hi Nicolo, I just happened to be on the computer when you logged in your padlet. on 9/12 you wrote that your character was not very nice to people. What was the aha moment that made her change. Cite the words from the book that shows you it's an aha moment.
Keep up the good work!

Just Jake is about a 12 year old boy who lives in Maryland with his parents and his sister Alexis. Jake likes to play basketball and football, his favorite teams are the the Celtics and the Patriots. Jake and Alexis don't really get along and they always fight with each other.Jake also likes to make baseball cards about his friends. Instead of their being a baseball player on the card, there would be one of his friends and something about him/her

A HAHa moment in my book was when Alexis mom realized that she was always really mean to Alexis and that is why they didn't get along so well and why sometimes they would just yell at each other. After a little bit of the mom starting to be nicer to Alexis, their relationship started getting better and better

A contrast and contradiction and a HaHa moment in my book is that at first Alexis was always mean to everybody about everything. For example, when she first moved into her house,there were some kids looking at them putting things in their house, she went up to those boys and started saying mean things to them and to stop looking at their things. This why she didn't have a lot of friends and why everyone always said she was mean. After a little bit that she didn't have not that many friends because of her attitude, so she started acting different to everyone
