3:15 -- Prediction


Author's Note: This is a reading lab assignment for the reading skill of Predicting. We watched a video about the book 3:15 which helped illustrate just what happened to Troy.

In the story, 3:15, Mr. Mason changes loud mouth kids to super quiet ones by some substance in a jar. I think that in this jar, there is some potion that gets into your body through your nose or mouth. I think Troy screamed because it stung or something, or he knew he was being changed. I think that in the future, Molly will convince Mr. Mason to give Troy some potion that changes him back. Mr. Mason will give in because Troy said that he was his favorite teacher.

This book is similar to many fiction books, the main character's world gets messed up, but one of the supporting characters helps fix it. For example, in the book, The Lost Hero, the main character, Jason, loses his memory, and the supporting characters, Piper and Leo, go on a long, difficult journey to save Hera so Jason can get his memory back. 

At the end, we figure out that what the jar does is it sucks out the soul of someone. Mr. Mason has a hidden shelving unit of jars, which hold the souls of all talkative students before Troy. My prediction was close but not right on. It still does change people, but it doesn't go into your body, it comes out of your body.
