Garvey’s purpose in Touching Spirit Bear
Authors Note: This Is about Garvey’s point in the story Touching Spirit Bear by Ben Mikaelsen.
In Touching Spirit Bear by Ben Mikaelsen is Garvey a good character for this story? What kind of affects does he have on Cole Matthews? Garvey’s purpose in the story is to help Cole through his recent crime. But does his help just make Cole's anger worse?
Garvey in Touching Spirit Bear by Ben Mikaelsen is a parole officer for Cole Matthews. Now when Cole smashes Peter Driscal’s face in to the side of a side walk, Garvey gave Cole the choice of risking the chance of going to jail or go to Circle Justice. When Cole was given the choice, he took the Circle Justus because he did not want to go to jail. Garvey keeps trying to help out Cole but he keeps blaming the world for everything that happens to him.
Garvey's purpose is to be there for Cole, to be someone who will steer him in the right direction. Garvey tried to show Cole that everything that happens to him is not because of everyone ells by having him eat all the ingredients of a cake then asked him how the ingredients tasted. Cole said that they tasted bad and nasty. Then he had given him a slice of cake and asked how that tasted. Then Cole said that the cake tasted grate and Garvey said that you can’t just keep blaming people for what happens to you. Garvey wanted Cole to see how every small thing matters.
Another example is when Garvey had went to Cole and suggested that he should try Circle Justice so he would not go to jail. He had brought that to Cole because he cares for Cole and Cole reminded Garvey of him self when he was his age.
Every time Garvey sees to Cole he tries to help him get him through what he is going through but Cole keeps refusing to cooperate with Garvey. However by the end of the book Cole feels that Garvey is more of a friend than he is a parole officer. Garvey made Cole face his anger so that he could overcome what gets him so angered. Now Cole is trying to be nicer to people so he doesn't end up were he was.

Cole's Anger
Rage controlled Cole’s hand as he drew back, paused for a split second, and then flipped the lighted match in to the shelter. This sentence is important because it shows how angered coal is. And it also shows how he really feels about the cecal justice.

Touching Spirit Bear Setting
Authors Note: this is about the setting of Touching Spirit Bear by Ben Mikaelsen
So far in Touching Spirit Bear by Ben Mikaelsen the main character Cole Matthews is put on an uninhabited island in Alaska. He was put there when he decided to join circle Justice Instead of being put in to jail. While on the island there was a cabin that was built for him to live in and it had all the supplies that he needed to survive. Then After a few hours on the island he was still angry about being there so he ran in to the cabin and covered everything with coarsen and found the matches and burned the cabin down with all the supplies that he needed to survive. Now while the cabin was burning he thought about trying to swim to the nearest island and island hop until he gets to the main land so he could escape and live a normal life.

The Long Rain
Authors Note: This is about how a kid’s summer is ruined by the constant rain.
This summer was a very weird one because it rained almost every other day. If it had stopped raining the ground was to muddy to even play outside so we couldn’t play outside. Also since we had a river in are back yard it started to flood in to are yard and so we could not play outside. And just up the river there was a dam. Days of rain had swelled the river, floods threatened to break loose. So my mother told me that if I go outside I could not go by the river. So now the rain has just about rend my summer and now I have nothing to do inside.

SEAL Warrior Prediction
Authors Note: This piece is about the book SEAL Warrior and what I thought what was going to happen later in the book.
The book SEAL Warrior by Thomas H. Keith is about the life story of a Navy SEAL during the Vietnam War. The main character in this book wants to be a Navy SEAL so he joins the Navy and is told that he has to meat cretin requirements. One of the requirements that he has to meat is to have two years in the fleet. Then after he gets back from his first deployment he met up with some family friends and they were in the navy and new an officer that could get him in to SEALs training without the requirements.
When the main character got to seals training he had arrived two weeks before with some other people. He and the other people arrived at then so that they could have a 2 week conditioning class before the training. Then when the real training for class 30 started the author said “To this day I thank God that I went through the summer class, and I have a lot of respect for the men who survived the winter training.”
Next in SEAL Warrior I think that when the main character will gets out of seals training. When he dose I think that he is going to go to other trainings before he does his deployment. Then when he gets deployed he will go to Vietnam. That is the prediction that I made for this book

Dead Men’s Path
Authors Note: This is about what I thought might happen after the inspector looked at the school.
Dead Men’s Path by Chinua Achebe is about a man how is well educated and is the headmaster of a school in 1949. The school is not up to date with most of the other schools in the time. So the headmaster wanted to improve the school and he was being greedy and self centered on rebuilding the school. When he wants to get rid of the path that belonged to the tribe that lived in the aria. The path ran in front of the school and he wanted to get rid of it so he could clean up the school. But the villagers did not want him to destroy it so then when the inspector came they went and tore down some of the sheds and fences that belonged to the school. So the school did not pass the inspection.
Now I think that now that he does not have the school any more he will get fired from his job. And he will lose his family and the villagers will repair the school and have it the way they want it to be. Or they will just move the school to another location so it does not inter fear with their path. That is what I think is going to happen.
