Elliot's Expose

Blog response instructions:• Answer the questions in complete sentences and use proper English (restrain from using MSN chat style of writing).• Use evidence from the novel to support your answer and include page numbers.• When commenting to your peers, be respectful in your language and about their responses. It is okay to disagree, but do it in a polite manner.When Elliot writes about his experience with the Jock Rots and sends it out over the KidNet, he includes the following quote in his letter."I think people ought to realize that stuff like this goes on every day…The rest of you are all part of it-because you let it go on and maybe you think it's funny, or you think it only happens to geeky outsiders and kids who are smaller or fatter or skinnier or don't have so many friends or so much money as you. So tell me-what happens when you don't have so many friends one day, or you don't have so much money, or something bad happens to you?" (91-92)

Blog Question:What is the message is he trying to get across to his classmates? (6pts)
Answer: I think that Elliot means that try thinking what it will feel like when you don't have any friends and you are getting bullied, and everybody thinks that it's funny and they never stop the bully. That's what's happening to Elliot right now, and I think that he sent that message just so the Jock Rots will feel ashamed when they dropped Elliot from the bridge on page 59.

Reavealers Role Reversal

Blog Question: After the Bully Lab was renamed, the Revealers, and the stories of the three Darkland students were released and well received by the student body, Elliot wanted to publish Russell’s narrative about Richie punching Russell in the face.
1) Why was Russell so opposed to the idea (pg. 110)? Explain. (4 pts)
2) What is happening to the relationship between Russell and Richie. (3 pts)
3) Two Peer Comments (4 pts each)

1: Russel didn't wanted Elliot to publish Russel's story because Russel just didn't wanted to publish it although he doesn't think that Richie would pound him. Also Russell thinks that Richie is acting different.

2: Richie isn't pounding Russel anymore, and Richie helped Russel when he was getting bullied by Burke and Blanchette. Also, Richie wants Russell to respect him.
