The Seventh Grade by Gary Soto A Review by Robbie Campbell

Main characters Victor Teresa

Setting of story The story took place at a high school. It was about kids who were starting seven grade.

Theme of the story The theme of the story is how to become friends with girls you like.

Information on the theme The theme is about Victor who wants to become friends with a girl named Teresa.

My prediction I think it is about new students in a seventh grade class.

Beginning of story The first day of school, and then they had English class.

In the middle of the story They had lunch, and then they went to math class.

At the end of the story Then they had French class, and at the end of the day he become friends with Teresa.

Critique- what you liked The thing I liked about the story is that I thought it was an interesting story.

Critique-what you didn’t like The thing that I didn’t like about the story is that it was a little to short for me because I like stories that are longer.
