I can predict that .... because on page ... in the text it says....
I predict that eventually, they will find some solutions related to where father is, meet someone new, and finally find out what this "shadow" is and why it's there
ReplyDeleteWhat text evidence supports your prediction?
DeleteI agree they will find some answers about everything.
DeleteI predict that Meg will find something even more interesting about the tesseract even though she already knows about it because Charles Wallace told her on page 87. I know that Meg is really curios about why Father is there
Deleteme to
Deletemy prediction was correct when i said they would meet a new friend and they did
ReplyDeleteYea they met that Medium and she showed them their planet and their galaxy
DeleteSo how do you think the friend is going to be important in the plot? What does all of this have to do with their father? USE TEXT EVIDENCE.
Deletewell medium have a crystal ball that she let them see their planet so if they use that they can find their father
Deletemine was too
DeleteI predict that The Dark Thing is a huge monster because on page 81 Calvin said that it's a sort of a shadow so it must a monster because a shadow needs a source to block light.
ReplyDeleteIt also said that it was what Father was fighting so I totally agree that it might be a huge monster
DeleteDo you think a monster can cover the whole earth? Look back at the description of what earth looked like...
DeleteThe Earth looked small, and also it's fiction so anything can happen.
DeleteI predict that Meg and the crew will find out how to destroy the Dark thing and find their dad.
ReplyDeleteHow do you think they will destroy it? What text evidence do you have?
DeleteGreat prediction it was amazing but I think you could use a little more detail.
DeleteI agree.
DeleteI think that they are looking for the dark thing.But i predict that the dark thing is trying to get the tesseract.I believe thst father has the tesseract.
ReplyDeleteThat is an "out of the box" prediction and i love it
DeleteI agree, this would be an interesting plot twist!!! What text evidence did you use to come up with this?
DeleteExplain why you think that Robert...
DeleteOn page 89 they explain the tesseract and how father is fighting it.
Deletethey probly is going to kill the dark thing and move on with the story
ReplyDeleteGood but you should add more and fix your spelling because your all off.
DeleteJUST A LITTLE CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM!!!!!!!!
And how is that a good prediction?
DeleteI predict that, everyone add up all their ideas to find the father
ReplyDeleteBecause on page 85-99 Meg and the crew are thinking real hard to find the father.
DeleteMy prediction about the "DARK THING" is that it is trying to devour planet earth because, on in the end of chapter 4 it they said that meg's dad was fighting it off.
ReplyDeleteHow do you think Father is fighting The Dark Thing?
DeleteI think Father is fighting this shadow with something that he invented or something that has to do with the tesseract.
DeleteI think how he is fighting the Dark Thing is that he probably somehow has the tesseract and is using that by taking it's energy to try to even up with the Dark thing.
DeleteFrom the list of Dark Thing-fighters on page 101, I would expect Father is fighting the Dark Thing by being creative somehow, doing some sort of art or good deeds or other creative work.
DeleteI predict that the dark shadow thing might be what Mr. Murry is researching. The black thing on the 5th Dimension and that Mr. Murry got lost in space and never got to came back. That is why the people in Washington D.C. said that he was on a mission and couldn't be talked to.
ReplyDeleteThat is a really good prediction.
DeleteMy prediction has a little to do with that prediction.
DeleteThanks! I try to be 'down to earth'.
DeleteThat was a really down to earth prediction good job Alana!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DeleteI can predict that they will meet the Mrs friend and he/she will give them important information on finding their father.Because on page 92 in the text it says the Mrs are taking them to meet the friend.
ReplyDeleteBased on the text, what type of information might she give?
DeleteI think from the text she might be a little loopy like the Mrs. so she may give them a ominous detail to help solve their problems.
DeleteI can predict that there are others helping father fight the dark thing because on page 101 the kids list off people they think are fighting the dark thing.Father is fighting the dark thing.
ReplyDeleteJared, this happens after we stopped reading. To make predictions, we should look back at evidence we already read.
DeleteI predict that they have friends or something important in every part outer space because they have been to a lot of places to prepare for finding father.
ReplyDeleteI predict that the dark thing is A.) The reason why her dad is gone, B.) They will have to get some sort of "weapon" to destroy the "darkness", and C.) They will meet Meg's father while fighting the "darkness".
ReplyDeleteI predict this because in previous chapters Mrs.Who, Which and, Whatsit have said that their father was fighting the darkness. Also Calvin said something about a weapon being used.
DeleteThat's a good prediction! Your bringing up stuff I had long forgotten about.
Deletei predict that farther,meg,and Calvin will have to fight it to free Charles,because on page 167 meg said it has Charles and it is talking through Charles
ReplyDeleteThis is an interesting thought. Can you add more details on what you mean? I am still a little confused.
Deletei read ahead i am on page 172
DeleteAs far as I can tell, the book never explains the relationship between IT and the Dark Thing. So it is easy to con-fuse them (fuse them together)
DeleteAs far as I can tell, the book never explains the relationship between IT and the Dark Thing. So it is easy to con-fuse them (fuse them together)
Deletemy prediction is that the shadow will be a corpse (zombie) because on page 81 Calvin said"it's a shadow so it might be a monster because it needs a source to blocklight
ReplyDeleteweird prediction but it sounds like it could happen i mean this is science fiction
DeleteDo you think a monster can cover the whole earth? Look back at the description of what earth looked like...
DeleteI predict they will eventually find father defeat the dark thing.I also think Charles is leading them on because something in my soul tells me that.But,I do have one question why didn't they just defeat or go for the dark thing when they had the chance.And they could have done that because one of the Mrs said they were visiting the planets to be prepared for the dark thing.
ReplyDeleteN'Deya, I think it is not just something in your soul telling you something is different about Charles. What text evidence gives you some clues?
DeleteWell he seems kind of shady and having bad things happen to them and when the bad things happen he's there to kinda scare them even more.
DeleteI think they will see the black thing again. I think this because Mrs whatsit said "the black thing did'nt just come,it has been her for many years"
ReplyDeleteWho do you think is going to stop it if anyone does?
DeleteI also believe that this dark shadow will cease if the group (including father ) will work together.
DeleteWhat do you think the black thing is? What evidence from the text tells you this?
Deleteidk
Deletei predict that the dark monster thing thats on page 81 will be some persons shadow and that it will be there dad
ReplyDeleteme too
DeleteWouldn't the shadow be too big and where would the Father be for his shadow to maybe be that big?
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeletewhat if the black thing is one of the mrs.s or charles because on 92 mrs which stuttered and she could be the black thing
ReplyDeleteI think also think that the 5th dimension could be the dark thing.
ReplyDeleteI think the shadow could be where the wrinkle at. Isn't what we think the same thing?
DeleteI predict that meg and the others are trying to find out answers about the dark shadow and about thier father as they travel through different dimensions. it talks more about the dark shadow and thier father in pages 82-90
ReplyDeleteI predict that the Mrs. W's, Calvin,Charles,and Meg will go to the planet the Medium showed them on page 98 and how the atmosphere was dark and the darkness was from The Dark Thing. Also on page 99 Mrs. Whatsit said they she prepared them for The Dark Thing. I predict that The Dark Thing is going to battle them and Meg's father is going to come from behind it and they get to see their father
ReplyDeleteas in going threw more tones
ReplyDeleteI predict that the new friend and the dark thing has a clue about where is father because on page 92 it says that we have a new friend on Orion.
ReplyDeletethe dark thing is very dumb becase whild they was on there jorney
ReplyDeleteI predict that the black thing thing is Mrs.Witch and Charles because on page 91 the text says that it was not invisible and who did they know that that the black thing is invisible or not was they there already about the black thing already.
ReplyDeleteI predict that Meg is going to beat the The Dark Thing and be brave because on page 98 in the text it say "No Meg, you know that it is not the atmosphere," Mrs Which said. "You must be brave"
