Question 1: What is Milton Weems\u2019 big dream?
\n
\n
\n

\n
\n
\n Right. And he\u2019ll probably be the first one! \n
\n
\n
\n I\u2019m sure he wants them to quit bullying him, wouldn\u2019t you? Are there any other good answers? \n

Question 2: How did Srta. Ortega react when Milton said he\u2019d been picked on by some guys in school?
\n
\n
\n
\n Right. What else did she tell him? \n

Question 4: If Milton tries to keep ignoring Brick, do you think the bullying will stop?
\n
\n
\n
\n Maybe\u2026but I doubt it. It looks like Milton has been bullied a long time by Brick and his friends, so I think it\u2019s going to take something more to stop it. \n
\n
\n
\n Right. Sometimes trying to ignore a bully will work, but usually the bullying just continues. In Milton\u2019s case, it looks like the bullying has been going on a long time. He did the right thing in talking to Sra. Ortega. \n

Question 5: What do you think Srta. Ortega should do to help Milton?

\n
\n
\n I agree. Milton seems to really like hanging out with Srta. Ortega. What else should she do? \n
\n
\n
\n Yes. Often, this is the best way to stop bullying. How do you think Milton would feel about this? How could Srta. Ortega do this without making it worse for Milton? What else should Srta. Ortega do? \n
