In the very first chapter it he only mentioned 1 person. He reminded the readers what happened in the story at the very end. It's just at the end he made Zinkoff more braver in a way. Zinkoff was less scared of people.]]> 2021-03-25 17:06:27 UTC https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354007399 s1004033005 https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354007766 My thoughts about Jerry Spinelli is that he ended Loser by telling how Zinkoff is like kind of like the 1st chapter but a little less and how Zinkoff acted when he was looking for Claudia and how much he cares and for chapter 1, Jerry started it by only one person talking about another person. As a reader, I think that Zinkoff really cares about other people and it is really the inside that counts because he outside is really just how you look. ]]> 2021-03-25 17:06:31 UTC https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354007766 s1004032795 https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354008043 In the beginning of the book, Zinkoff is basically a nobody because nobody really noticed him. Then at the end of the book, people finally notice him because of his experience with finding Claudia. Also he finally gets picked in the game.]]> 2021-03-25 17:06:34 UTC https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354008043 s1004032941 https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354008132 My thought about the author that wrote the book, he ended the book with Bonce choosing Zinkoff. Zinkoff had never in his life been chosen for games that is for team choosing. He started by describing who Zinkoff is kind of like.]]> 2021-03-25 17:06:35 UTC https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354008132 s1004033792 https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354008319 The book started with talking about Zinkoff and that he liked to run.

My thoughts about the author ending of the book is that Zinkoff finally gets to participate in his classmates games. ]]> 2021-03-25 17:06:41 UTC https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354008696 s1004032717 https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354009289 it ends with 4 people playing baseball talking about zinkoff and it starts with a 1st person perspective who focuses on a boy named zinkoff]]> 2021-03-25 17:06:48 UTC https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354009289 s1004032752 https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354009479 He began "Loser" with introducing characters and then leading us on the path of Zinkoff's life. In the end the author stopped the path of his life to explain a very important part of his life. ]]> 2021-03-25 17:06:50 UTC https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354009479 s1004038552 https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354009859 He starts with some thoughts then it ends by reminding everyone what happen through out the story like where they were talking about the 7 hours in the snow or like he is a nobody but these examples are through out the story and all he did was play a scene restating the big events from the story.]]> 2021-03-25 17:06:55 UTC https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354009859 s1004044346 https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354010250 I think that he starts with a simple story and a simple ending. He starts with ZInkoff and nends simply. But in the first chapter it starts with 2nd person, so it is a bit different from the last chapter.]]> 2021-03-25 17:07:00 UTC https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354010250 s1004032812 https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354011955 I think that the way he ended the story he had non-main characters talk about Zinkoff. the same thing was with the first chapter and a little of the second one. I think that introduces the character or other character's thoughts abut the character. ]]> 2021-03-25 17:07:18 UTC https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354011955 s1004030334 https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354012555 My thoughts about how Jerry Spinelli ended and began Loser is that he started with another character  kinda describing what kind of character Zinkoff is.Maybe how other kids might see Zinkoff. At the end it shows four characters talking about Zinkoff and how people see Zinkoff after everything that happened.Or how Zinkoff changed.]]> 2021-03-25 17:07:25 UTC https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354012555 s1004033314 https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354015166 Jerry spinelli started the book Loser by Intruducing some of the characters. at the end of the story not main characters ]]> 2021-03-25 17:07:53 UTC https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354015166 s1004032734 https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354015537 I like how Jerry Spinelli ended the book by showing chapter 1 again, cause it shows how Zinkoff changed beyond the years.]]> 2021-03-25 17:07:57 UTC https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354015537 s1004030997 https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354016423 He started by describing Zinkoff, made his sound mysterious at first. then at the end, he's just a clumsy child but risked his life to find his friend. and one of the people who would be considered "enemies" when we first saw him, decided to side with Zinkoff in the end and giving us hope that maybe he'll have a good future.]]> 2021-03-25 17:08:07 UTC https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354016423 s1004033004 https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354017137 i think it was a good book and i like how and how he began the book and through the hole story it would say how he is changing what things he is doing thats new and how there telling us like everything about him and what he is doing .]]> 2021-03-25 17:08:15 UTC https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354017137 s1004032565 https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354017799 I think how Jerry Spinelli began and ended loser was not mentioning Zinkoff's name until the end of the chapter.]]> 2021-03-25 17:08:22 UTC https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354017799 s1004032672 https://padlet.com/areina7/a3z2a3cks2ikl8x0/wish/1354020219 I felt like it  was great because it shows that zinkoff changed in the way that people think of him and how zinkoff.
