Tamaya is sad that her friends are changing and which they want to be bad and so do the boys and they think its bad to be good. she feels left out

# data[].attributes.body
Tamaya is confused. She doesn't know why they are being so mean. Her friends are being mean to her. Sometimes, people make other people feel bad at school.

No this is not true because you are supposed to act like you know stuff in seventh grade because if you don't, you might flunk school.  Marshall might feel this way because he had tried to fit in with another group who don't try to act like they know stuff, and he wanted to be like them.
No I have not acted a certain way to fit into a group.

# data[].attributes.body
Tamaya is confused because all of her friends are talking about her. If I was Tamaya I would have asked her friend what they were talking about and would have told them the truth. If someone stabbed himself with a pencil I would have asked them if they were ok and if they needed help.

# data[].attributes.body
Tamaya feels as if she is the odd one out and different from the others.
Tamaya feels confused, embarrassed and weird. Tamaya feels this way since her friends are feeling different and are looking and saying mean things about her.

Tamaya changed as a character when she threw the fuzzy mud at Chad.
Now, the fuzzy mud has spread on to her hand! "She reached into the fuzzy mud and grabbed a handful of thick and gooey muck. She ran at Chad, and as he turned toward her, she shoved it into his face."

In school I think that you should act like you know things, but not act like a know it all or a nerd. Marshall is thinking this because Chad is popular and people like Chad are dumb and they don't know anything. Finally, I have acted this way around a group of people when everyone was talking about something and I wanted to be part of the conversation so I acted like I agreed and said something made up. This is similar to what Marshall did in the way that Marshall and I are both trying to fit in.

*Marshall is scared that Chad could beat him up or make his life more miserable.

No, I find friends that like me for me

Yes because all of the kids really look up to him. Plus there is also a quote to support my thinking on page #18. The quote is "every one seemed to admire him.", His fellow classmates actually do believe his fantasy stories. I think that Chad behaves this way because he just wants to gain self esteem because of all of the schools that he had gotten kicked out of. I think that he is also trying popularity in the school.

Tamayas option is to  walk home with the boy.  If she did not walk with Marshall nothing would have happen to them. Marshall did not handle the problem well with  Chad because instead of fighting with him he could of just walked away.

Tamaya is confused because her friends keep saying "them" and she does not know who "them"  is. If I were Tamaya I would ask my friends who "them" is. I would think if someone stabbed herself with a pencil that they were crazy and gross for doing that.

# data[].attributes.body
Tamaya's only option was to walk home with Marshall . Things would change if she didn't go with Marshall, there would be no story.  No Marshall did not handle the problem with Chad well.He could have just walked away.

Tamaya is confused because her friends keep mentioning "them" when she doesn't know who "them" is. If I were Tamaya I would ask my friends who they were talking about. I would think some one is gross and crazy if they stab there self with a pencil.

1. I don't think other students admire Chad, I think they were scared of him and especially when he isolated and gave Marshall a hard time, I think everyone saw how Marshall's grades and participation was lowering so they probably thought that it was Chad making him feel uncomfortable. Which made them want to be Chad's servants and do everything Chad says so he wouldn't do it to them.

2. Chad behaves this way because he wants attention and people to fear him, near the end of the book he admitted that his family hates him so because of this he must have made him want people to fear him.

No this is not true, if you know the answer to something than you should  answer it. Because Marshall feels he should be able to "fit in" so he keeps quiet. No I have never done something to "fit in" with a group.

It is when she she puts her hand in the mud. " She
reached into the fuzzy mud and grabbed a hand full of thick and gooey mud and shoved it into his face." This changed her becasue she got a rash.
The Character that helped her devolp the most was chad bevause in the book it says " No one knows no one cares." This changes tamaya because it makes her feel bad for him.

# data[].attributes.body
He behaves this way because he gets to be the cool kid at school. I don't think everyone admires him. And I think he gives Marshall a hard time.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that the other students don't admire chad. I think they pretend because they find every thing he does cool. Like riding his motorcycle for example. I think they are also scared that he is going to beat them up.

# data[].attributes.body
The  Event that helped Tamayas develop was when she trough the mud at Chad. It Changed her because of the rash and because of how she then worried about chad even though she disliked him.
Chad helped her change because of when she threw the mud at im
