    Actions:beaming,smile

    Traits:excited,thrilled

    2. Nahids traits impacted Kato by encouraging Her to do other things than just going on the Roller coaster

    3.a) scared, nervous
    b)I would think that the story would have changed if Nahids traits because if they had used the opposite it would make both of them ( Kato and Nahid)
    Scared if they go to the roller coaster

    4. Kaka changed in the story at the end because when Nahid encouraged Kato she said “yeah, but i Want to try eventually”.This is how Kato Changed by Nahid‘s encouragement

      Q1.
      Nahid is a happy girl because it says in the text “she was determined to make sure it still was a fun day “, this implys that she was upset about not going on the roller coaster but, she will make her friend (Kato) happy.
      Q2.
      Nahid’s character traits Kato well because Kato is nervous and frightened to be on the roller coaster.
      Q3.
      I think that Kato has changed in the story because at the start she didn’t want to go on the ride but as she changed throughout the story she gave it a go.

    Comprehension questions :
    1. Nahid is a happy girl because it says in the text “she was determined to make sure it still was a fun day “, this means she was upset about not going on the roller coaster but she will make her friend Kato happy.
    2. It impacts Kato because Kato is nervous and scared of the roller coaster.
    3. It reminds me of a character from a recent book called Billionaire boy and there were characters called “The Grubs” their personalities were so opposite to Nahid they were twins one was a boy and the other was a girl but you couldn’t recognise who was who. They were completely selfish.
    4. Kato changed a lot because a first she was scared of the roller coaster but at the end she gave it a try. She did this because her friend Nahid was really disappointed and Kato was really nice and she let Nahid and her go on the roller coaster.

    1. Mr Patel

      I like it how you compared one of answers to a book that you have read. This is great and important in your learning.

      Why is empathy important in this situation?

  3. Humza H.

    1.Actions:She made sure Kato was safe and happy.
    Words: Reassured
    Trait: Empathy
    Action: Held her hand throughout the whole roller coaster
    Word:Kindness
    Trait: Friendship
    2.It impacts Kato because with out Nahid a normal person wouldn’t nescecerily sacrifice her day to make her happy also without Nahid she wouldn’t have gone on the roller coaster because Kato saw how sad Nahid was so she would pay her back.
    3. A]Thanos
    B]Thanos would have made her gone on the ride and probably she wouldn’t have felt comfortable and would never be friends.
    4.Kato changed because she didn’t like to be in a rollercoaster but now she loves to be in one.

    1. Mr Patel

      Good – explain your answer for number 4 please. How do you think she is feeling and how she may change her future choices based on this experience?

  4. Safa H.

    1) I think that she is a good friend. This is because even though she really wanted to go on the roller coaster she didn’t because her friend was to scared. I know this because it says ‘ Nahid felt disappointed. She didn’t want her friend to be upset ‘.
    2) Nahid really wanted to go on the roller coaster so Kato went on the roller coaster with her even though she was scared. After the ride she liked roller coasters and wanted to ho on it again.
    3) selfish. Kato might have become upset as she did not want to go on the roller coaster.
    4) Kato is the character that changed in the story. This is because at the beginning of the story she didn’t want to go on the roller coaster and at the end of the story she wanted to go on the roller coaster. I know this because in the text it quotes ‘ That was amazing’ and it says ‘ Lets do it again’.

    1. Mr Patel

      You explained your answers well. Good girl!

      For number 2, what is going through Kato’s mind?

      1. Safa H.

        At the start she was nervous.

        1. Mr Patel

          Ok but remember to explain why – really important skill in life and not just in reading.
          Well done for responding to my questions, though!

          1. Safa H.

            She was nervous at the start because she was scared. She was scared because she din’t want to go on the roller coaster.

          2. Mr Patel

            Agree.

    1.She left the rollercoaster because her friend was nervous.
    He went with his friend on the rollercoaster in the end but he asked him if he was well and okay.
    2.“Are you sure?”
    “If you don’t want to go that’s alright.There’s plenty of other things to do.”
    ” Well alright,but if you get nervous again let me know.”
    3.Loyal
    Friendly
    Caring
    Well mannered
    3.Nahids character impacted Kato because Nahid was a nice person who understood how his freind felt so he was friendly towards him and did what he wanted to do instead of being selfish and thinking about himself.This impacted his friend because he found the confidence to go on the rollercoaster.
    4. Kato changes because he was scared at the start to go on a rollercoaster but at the end hè went on it.

    1. Mr Patel

      For number 1 – Why is her friend nervous? Explain.
      Number 2 – Doesn’t make any sense. Please explain so it is clear.

    I’m definitely in trouble 😔
    I-I will be honest. I haven’t done anything in my comprehension books. Well there’s no excuse but there is a reason. I’m to much focused on blogs. I’m planning a date for them. I’m really sorry please teachers forgive me.😥😰

    1. Mr Patel

      Don’t worry. You have been doing a good job on the blog. Try to do some in the half term break. Thank you for being honest!

  8. Yosif I.

    I can feel the emotion of how Kato is feeling. Its quite horrific having dreamt through rollercoaster.

    1. Mr Patel

      Make sure you complete the other questions.

  9. Miss Kaur

    I know how Kato feels 😩, I am not a huge fan of rollercoasters! I can definitely empathise with Kato😢.
