  1. 1.No, I don't because without Bianca they couldn't have done "Wonder Tiny Dolls". Also, without Rocky, they would of taken forever to find the swords on the island, because he found two.
    2.Life skills are important to me because all of my teeth would fall out if I didn't brush my teeth,and if I didn't turn on the microwave my food would be cold. I think Thorn would fell left out because he didn't know how to do anything.

  2. No, because Bianca figured out Won-der dolls and Rocky is strog so he has helped with some stunts. Thorn knows some things but others are a blank. I think life skills are very important. I think Thorn doesn't really know what the outside life is.

  3. I would not think that Gil and Lavinia would be a good team together because they would need help. I would think if it was Gil, Lavinia, and Bianca together then I think they would win.
    Life skills are the most important things in the universe to me because without life skills I do not know how I will survive! I think Thorn will have a good life now because he will have good "sheltered" life, and I think he will not have a "bored" life.

  4. No, because they need Rocky's energy, Bianica's history skills, Thorn's advantage.


    My life skills are fun running, language art's, humor and more except my chores.

    I bet he feels good rideing in a helicopter,having a big house,and just being rich.

  5. They would make a great team because whatever a person was bad at the other person was good at. They never argued either.

    Being able to walk, see, and hear are all important to me. Having to go to school, too. Being cooped up is never fun. Thorn has people do everything for him, so when he has to do that on his own, he can't do it.

  6. I think they would because they're both the ones that solve most of the questions. Plus, they are both smart!
    My life skills are smartness, good at cheer, and kindness.
    I bet he feels bad because he has a hearing aid but he might feel good because he's rich.

  7. They would not make a good team because they need smarter people. Also they need more energy.

    Most life skills are very important to me.

    I bet he feels good because he is so rich.

  8. 1. no because Rocky helped with bowling, and the island one where you kill the beast.

    I think a important life skill for me is practicing, showering, reading, and homework even though its boring.

    THORN:
    1. maybe happy about having every golly video game except Strewn.
    2. possibly hiding his sadness about being a person who needs to learn somethings
    3. or just having a good time in life with a little times when he feels pretty horrible
