  2. Sara~2 questions
    ~Is this girl Alicia going to tell someone like her father who may have connections with Bobby's mother who he might figure something out now since his girl knows.
    ~ How is this going to be kept, and for how long. He has already told Alicia, and his parents know. Soon the school and police have already came to the house.

  3. 1. How did Bobby's parents get into the car crash?

    2. Even if Bobby is invisible I don't understand why you would think it's a good idea to go out in public?

  4. 1.In the past reading Bobby's parents got in a car accident so they had to go to the hospital.Bobby's mom seem's to be fine but bobbies dad is not.Then Bobby decides to go to the hospital to check on them but on the way home he runs into a blind girl.Then a day or to later he decides to go to the library where he see her again but then they decide Bobby would walk her home.
    2.Why is he walking her home?
    Is Bobby's dad going to be okay?
    3.I think Bobby is out going because even when his parents tell him not to go anywhere he still goes to the library and he still visits his mom.

  5. So far in Things Not Seen, Bobby became invisible and his parents are both in the hospital for three days because they got in an accident. Bobby keeps worrying about what's gonna happen with his parents gone and him being invisible with nobody to take care of him. He misses his parents, so he calls them every day, and the first day that they're gone, he visits his mom in the hospital. How is Bobby invisible? How is he going to be visible again? I'm most like Bobby, because he lies a lot to be safe, and I lie to be safe.

  6. character trait
    I pick Alicia and her character trait would have to be noisy because she is trying to get all the information that she can out of Bobby. I think she already knows him to well because Bobby is falling for all of this when this girl could tell anyone and soon someone is going to believe her or figure this out and it could get into a police ingestion thing, but at the same time she is starting to care for him more. Also noisy because she wants to know about his family and his life not being at school and wants to keep meting up with him.

  7. So far in the book Things Not Seen by Andrew Clements there is a boy named Bobby who one day wakes up and finds out he is invisible. His parents are involved in a car crash shortly afterwards. Bobby goes out and meets a blind girl who eventually finds out he is invisible.

  8. Summery-In the readings chapters 3-11 Bobby gets the guts to go outside and go to the library. When at the library and is leaving he bumps into a blind girl and they become friends. At home he finds out that the parents got in a car crash and bobby would have to stay home alone. But instead of staying home he goes to the hospital invisibly and sneaks into his parents room to say hello. lastly bobby goes to the library again and talks to the blind girl alicia he is going to walk her home

    Questions-Why is it so important to keep bobbys invisibility a secret?
    Why would bobby even want to be outside if he has to be naked?

    Bobby-The trait I pick for bobby is adventurous. I pick this for him because he can't sit still while he is invisible, he is always on the go to a place where he wants.

  9. Summary-In the reading Chapters 3-11 Bobby's parents get in a car crash, and Bobby has to dress up with a scarf to cover his face to go to the hospital. Bobby finds out he has to stay home alone and he is a little scared. The officer knocks at his door but Bobby doesn't answer. Bobby also dresses up and goes to the library and meats a blind girl and they became friends before going to the hospital.

    Questions
    1. How doesn't the cab driver or the person at the hospital not notice his face? I know he has a scarf on but still.
    2. How does Bobby shower and eat and the thing you do on a daily basic.

    Bobby is invisible and is very sneaky/quiet. He keeps a low profile but when the red light goes off he knows what to do. He is adventurous but I think his adventurousness well make him get caught.

  10. The character I picked is Alicia. I think she is demanding because before they go to that Starbucks she makes him tell her all about him and stuff. She also threatens to scream to get him in trouble.
