She also said "She's a friend" when The Marthas asked who she was.

There are "plays nice", "clothes", and "lunch". She has a B in playing nice, a C in clothes, and a D in lunch. I wonder what Heather's social grades are.

IT goes t Merryweather, and IT sees me. At first I thought that she was talking about Pennywise from It, but I am assuming that it isn't due to it wouldn't make sense and copywrite issues

]]> 2024-02-28 21:39:55 UTC https://padlet.com/tjones466/w3debj0tqudw3if3/wish/2899710777 I wonder what mistake she made that has her in so much grief. https://padlet.com/tjones466/w3debj0tqudw3if3/wish/2899711172 2024-02-28 21:40:30 UTC https://padlet.com/tjones466/w3debj0tqudw3if3/wish/2899711172 Embry #1 eduldulao6093 https://padlet.com/tjones466/w3debj0tqudw3if3/wish/2899711642 I noticed she uses her closet as a quiet room to get away from the real world and think to herself but I'm wondering what her parents think about her when she stutters every time she try's speak to her parents.

It could be the reason why she is unable to communicate. I wonder what happened

She doesn't know who she is, she lost her friends, she seemed like she used to be someone else and now she's just hallow.

]]> 2024-02-28 21:42:45 UTC https://padlet.com/tjones466/w3debj0tqudw3if3/wish/2899712644 Embry #2 eduldulao6093 https://padlet.com/tjones466/w3debj0tqudw3if3/wish/2899712729 I'm wondering if some words are bolded in the story to empathize something or to bring that word out more so it can stand out more then others. For example the words Tigers were killed was bolded when they were talking about posters.

Without support from her parents and friends and the lack of education on mental health probably isn't helping.

Maybe this is her room that screams "Malinda!". I'd love to have my own abandoned janitor's closet.

Heather is only getting to know Melinda now, and it seems that Melinda and the "Martha's" are very different and Heather actually wants to be apart of the Marthas

]]> 2024-02-28 21:49:17 UTC https://padlet.com/tjones466/w3debj0tqudw3if3/wish/2899717090 Ezekiel #3 ebumgardner9215_ https://padlet.com/tjones466/w3debj0tqudw3if3/wish/2899719305 I think a possible motif could be just the feeling of uncertainty or not knowing the answers due to her feeling pressure about things like Job Day, Spanish class, and even her grades, and I think having the options A, B, C, or D or letter grades makes her feel even more trapped that she has to live up to some expectations.

]]> 2024-02-28 21:52:29 UTC https://padlet.com/tjones466/w3debj0tqudw3if3/wish/2899719305 Janisa #3 https://padlet.com/tjones466/w3debj0tqudw3if3/wish/2899719547 I wonder what happened to her in middle school, and what made her lose all her friends and think of herself, school, and everyone else in such a negative way. Did she do something or did someone do something to her to make her change if she did change.
