#tollgvms I believe Melinda was sexually assaulted and Andy Evans should be convicted because he never received verbal consent from her. She wasn't in her right mind since she was drunk as well.

@FreedaZFSUSD I disagree because when someone is listening to reply they just want continue arguing their own point rather but when you are listening to understand they want to help the other person by trying to see their point in the argument. #tollgvms

[Gladys C @gladyscfsusd]

#tollgvms Listening to reply is means that the person is wants support their argument and oppose the other person. However, when you are listening to understand you are analyzing and trying to comprehend what the other person is talking about.

#tollgvms Mr.Freeman & Melinda r parallel characters bc other teachers r believing that he is insane just like students r w/ Melinda. Mr.Freeman's current work of art of is a canvas of a dark color which symbolizes how he feels.Both of them are expressing their pain thru art

#tollgvms Melinda's parents handled the situation incorrectly when they noticed her self-harming because they only made her feel worse instead of supporting her.

[Gladys C @gladyscfsusd]

#tollgvms I think parents should speak openly to their children about the issues that they are facing because they can help them handle those problems and so that children are not worried about them

#tollgvms I believe America should have open borders because it would allow families to see each other more and create great diversity with the rich cultures from from all the foreign places.

#tollgvms Maya Angelou was referenced in the novel Speak because her and Melinda have gone through similar situations. Melinda put her in the mirror as the reflection of herself she aspires to be.

@Akailah_Fsusd How is it that he feels dominant over her? What is it that he thinks she's thinking or do you think he even cares about that? #tollgvms

[Gladys C @gladyscfsusd]

@Akailah_Fsusd I agree with this but have you considered explaining further some other ways of self harm and why it seen as a form for control over her body when she does it #tollgvms

[Gladys C @gladyscfsusd]

@_MichelleC18 Consider explaining who Heather is and how she acts and compare it to who Melinda is now so that the difference is better understood between her past and present self. #tollgvms

[Gladys C @gladyscfsusd]

@ElisePFSUSDD What are some other ways of self harm and what is it that bothers her so much? #tollgvms

[Gladys C @gladyscfsusd]

@ElisePFSUSDD This is well explained but do you also think that maybe she doesn't want to talk to Melinda was because she had a new group of friends so there is also a lack of communication?

[Gladys C @gladyscfsusd]

@LarishaMFSUSD You could explain further the hard times they are both going through to better understand how they are related.

[Gladys C @gladyscfsusd]

@SahilHfsusd You could expand on why and who could have threatened her. Do you think that she is also afraid of the consequences or that no one would believe her in the first place since everyone already dislikes her? #tollgvms

[Gladys C @gladyscfsusd]

@faustina_wFSUSD This is a good response, however, have you thought that people also just assume that they are being lazy? You could further expand on some other signs of struggle. #tollgvms

[Gladys C @gladyscfsusd]

@FreedaZFSUSD You could expand on the things she is so worried about and explain why she is so worried about them. #tollgvms

[Gladys C @gladyscfsusd]

@AbigailCFSUSD Why do you think think they both think they have no one to guide them? You could add that they are both afraid to speak up and why they can't trust people to help them. #tollgvms

[Gladys C @gladyscfsusd]

@FreedaZFSUSD Why do you think they don't see who she truly is?

[Gladys C @gladyscfsusd]

A8 #tollgvms People tend to miss signs of struggle in others because they assume there must be other reasons like being lazy or simply not caring. Melinda used to be a good student but not so much anymore and ppl just assume that it's bc she is lazy.
