I believe the book may be called "Spirit Bear". I think that this book may be about a young boy. The boy is wondering through the woods and finds this bear. Soon after the bear gains the boys trust and they become friends. Somewhere near the middle of the story the bear and boy get seperated. When they are seperated the boy runs into danger that seems hopeless to get away from but just in time the bear comes to his rescue. Later on the boy is faced with a task that is beyond human reach. But in the end the bear guides him to greatness.
ReplyDeleteI think the book's title is "The Spirit Bear."
ReplyDeleteThis story might be about an orphan boy goes in to deep forest and find a spirit bear. The boy becomes a friend with this bear and when he has any problems, the boy calls the spirit bear for help. Then oneday, people want to catch the spirit bear so they give money to the boy. So from that time, the boy and the bear become enemies and try to hunt down each other. Then finally, the boy kills the bear and becomes very rich.
@ Cleopatra and Conan - Great posts! Glad to see that you were the first two students to post! Interesting to hear your predictions! We will be working on editing and commenting on the work of your peers tomorrow!

i think this books title is the grizzleys spirit.
ReplyDeleteand the story might be about a boy who wanders off into the woods and cant find his way out and now he has to surviveand so i think that the boy when he first sees the bear he will try to kill it but then he finds out its not trying to hurt him its trying to help him. and the boy grows very fond of the bear and there not scared about eachother
My prediction of this books title is "The Heavenly Spirit Bear." I think that this story will be about a tortured boy and how he escaped. The bear may help him get back to good health through a journey. In the beginning I think he'll somehow escape from being tortured. The bear then will probably help him get back to good health. In the middle the boy might mention that he wants to get back to his family. In the end they'll come to the end of the journey and the boy will be reunited with his family.
ReplyDeleteMy prediction of this book title is "Caught in the Myths". I think this book maybe about a boy who goes camping and gets left behind. He hasn't eaten anything for a long time so he goes to search for food. While he is walking, he feels like someone is following him. Soon he finds something in the bushes. When he goes closer, it was a bear. He gets scared and tries to use his survival skills which he learned at camp. He takes out his knife and tries to stab the bear, but the bear instead gave him some food. They soon became friends. In the end the bear guides the boy to his home but they had to go through a lot of challenges.
ReplyDeleteMy prediction is that the book title is The Spirit in the Forest. I think that the story is about a boy who runs away from home because of trouble and goes to the forest. He is surviving pretty well and one day, he goes hunting and hears rustling in the bushes. He looks and finds a bear. The bear and the boy would soon become friends and the bear would defend and help the boy when he had any trouble. The bear would teach the boy about doing the right thing and the boy would return home.
ReplyDeleteI foresee that the title of this story is "Bear in the Mist". I believe that It starts with a poor boy wondering through the woods to come across a huge clear bear standing upright. The Bear does not attack the boy but instead climbs up the hill behind. The boy went home and two weeks later he found the bear pondering around in his dreams but this time the bear spoke these words "If you want help find me but if you do not then stay in your home." the boy did not do as the spirit bear said and two days later there was a forest fire that devoured the village the boy lived in. Till this day you can go to were the boy lived and see the spirit bear siting on the cliff above...

My prediction for the title of this book is "Heaven Bear" because the cover expresses that to me. This book could be about a boy who wanders in the wilderness until he confronts a grizzly bear. Instead of the bear attacking the boy, the bear leans over in the sense he wants to be petted. The boy grows a strong relationship with the bear but one day finds his furry friend cut with a spear and lying on the ground not breathing. During the middle of the story, the boy is desperately looking for the killer with inspiration from the spirit of a bear following him and before he gives up he finally finds the criminal. At the end of the story, after the killer was dealt with, the bear finally rests in peace.

ReplyDeleteI Think the name of this story is Mythical Bear. I predict that this story will be about a boy in need, that a mythical/spirit bear tries to help. In the beginning, I believe that a boy will go into a hug forest and get lost, and than in the middle, a spirit bear will come and try to help in through the dangers of the forest, and they will go through the whole journey together. At the end, the bear helps the boy find his way out of the forest, and to his home, where he lives happily once again.
ReplyDeletei think that this books title will have something to do with magical bear and i think it will be about a kid who was torted or beaten and left to die in the woods and then this majestic bear comes and saves him from death and they pretty much survive together and try to get the boy back to full health and to teach him how to survive in the woods , hunt and forge things like leaf beds and tents and things and sometime in the story i believe that the bear may become very sick and die and then he will be on his own and somthing would possibly happen to him and he would have no one to take care of him
ReplyDeleteI believe that the novel is called "Spirit Bear". I predict the story is about a 16 year old boy who was obsessed with wild animals as a child and one day finally, he thought he was a wild animal and ran away from home. Now he's living in the forest for quite a while by himself. One day he comes across a humongous white bear known as Spirit Bear. I think in the middle of the book Spirit Bear try’s to held the boy, and convince him he was not a wild animal, was human. But the boy would keep being stubborn. Refusing to listen, trying to attack Spirit Bear, and fleeing, but Spirit Bear doesn’t give up and keeps proceeding with his plan. At the end of the novel I predict, Spirit Bear will finally cure the boy from his profound insanity. The boy and Spirit Bear become friends and the boy goes back home, to where he belongs. He tells his family but they say it’s just a myth. The boy knows Spirit Bear exists and that’s good enough for him.
ReplyDeleteI predict the book to be called "Ihe Inner Bear."
ReplyDeleteI think this story is about a magical bear that helps a boy find himself with many challenges along the way.
In the beginning, a boy runs into the forest when he runs away from home and he meets a bear. The bear talks to him and helps him.
In the middle, I believe the boy gives up on finding who he really is so he tries to get away from the bear. The bear finds him and convinces the boy to keep trying.
Finally, in the end of the book, I think the boy learns who he is and says good-bye to the bear and returns home to his family after being away for 2 weeks. The boy visits the bear though everyday.
@ Everyone - Great predictions! Remember, before you actually post your work, be sure to see if there are any words underlined in red. This indicates that the word is spelled incorrectly. I noticed that several of you made spelling errors that could have easily been avoided. Remember, don't type just to get your work over with. Being able to edit and proofread are skills that good writers possess. :)

ReplyDeleteI think the book will be about a boy who went camping with his parents. When the boy went to explore, he accidently falls off a cliff and meets the Spirit Bear who will heal him and helps him find his parents. In the end, he reunites with his parents and never forgets the Spirit Bear and the adventure.

ReplyDelete@Sherlock Holmes- I really think this is a great prediction about the book. I saw some errors like how you didn't put a " before and after the title. But that isn't much of a problem and it seems thats your only error. I like how your prediction is realistic and happy.
ReplyDelete@Sam Fisher
ReplyDeleteI think your prediction is great but has some slight errors. For example you use the words like and things a little too much and you do have some small spelling errors. Torted should be tortured and your "i" should be capitalized to "I". Overall I think that your prediction is very good and to the point but these are just some helpful tips. :)
@mickeymouse - Your prediction was great! You have alot of details, and I can tell you worked very hard on it. Next time, I suggest putting in the capitals at the beginning of each sentence, because some of them you forgot to do. I also suggest to use more punctuation. Other than that, great job! :)
ReplyDelete@joe joltz- i think your prediction is very great and i agree that that will most likely happen in the story. i wish you would of used more punctuation and added a bit more to your paragraph and descriptive words :)
ReplyDeleteI think that the title is going to be called "Man versus Beast". My prediction for the story is that it will be about a boy who goes in the woods and finds a bear and he tries to kill him. In the beginning of the novel I predict that the boy goes searching in the woods and he finds a bear. In the middle of the novel I believe that the bear tries to attack the boy so then boy gets into an epic battle with the bear. In the end of the novel I think that the boy ends up killing the bear but the boy ends up getting hurt will he was in the epic battle with the bear
ReplyDelete@Percy Jackson- This was written very well but I suggest that next time you post a comment you should make it longer and get it on the blog before you come to school. You should also be putting a little more detail in to your sentences. In the end I think you had a very good prediction and it was thought out well.
ReplyDeleteGood Work,
Katniss E.

ReplyDelete@ cleopatra- your prediction was very detailed but only if you put commas in some places, the paragraph would be a little more detailed. Overall you did a great job on your prediction!!!
ReplyDelete@Brian Robeson - I think that your prediction is great! I love the twist you added with the bear dying. You didn't have any spelling errors but I think you could've explained it a little more. Overall, good prediction!
ReplyDelete@superduperman12- your prediction is great but at the end you put' will he was' and that was a spelling error but your whole prediction is amazing great job
ReplyDelete@Katniss Everdeen-Your prediction was great and I liked what the Spirit Bear told the boy and your prediction was very unique. I did not find any spelling mistakes so GOOD JOB!!!
ReplyDeletePercy Jackson.
I think the tittle is the spirit bear. I think the beginning will be about how the boy got into the forest i think that maybe his family went camping and he decided to explore the woods and got lost and couldn't get out . I think the middle will be about how he met the bear and what the bear wanted to do with him or why the bear spirit was helping him and giving him things to survive then he will ask the bear where he is and why he is there . then i think the end will be about how he gets out of the forest or if he just has to live there and get used to not seeing his family for the rest of his life. I also kinda think that the boy might be homeless and decided to live there. Written by: catinthehat2011 (not Mr. H)

ReplyDeleteYou have a very good prediction for the novel. a few things that you might want to change next time is your grammar and your punctuation. You might want to change your grammar because it is not proper to start a sentence with and. Some punctuation you might want to change is the fact that you started your prediction with i. You also might want to use more descriptive words next time.
@chealseasomers -you had a very good write up. one thing you could do to your paragraph you could maybe put your paragraphs longer and and your punctuations were very good and your grammar was very good and you had very good sentence structure and you did very good on your predictions and it was a great prediction ! :) (Written by: Mickey Mouse, not Mr. H)
ReplyDelete@ Ammit the devourer - Good prediction I thought your sentence structure was not that great like your first sentence was too long and, your 3rd sentence was too short. Otherwise everthing else was great so keep up the good work.
ReplyDelete(REVISED)
ReplyDeleteI connect when the elder said" Don't walk through poison oak or stinging nettle." Because when me and my family went camping, my mom told me "Don't walk through stinging nettle." Sad news is I did not know what stinging nettle was and I walked through it. When I walked back to the trailer I was in a lot of pain and my mom was very angry.
