MELODY'S COMPUTER
January 30, 2017
How does Melody's computer change her life, her outlook, and her potential? Why does she name it Elvira?
Melody's computer changes her life because before she got the computer she couldn't talk but now she can because all she has to do is type what she wants to say instead of the board where she just point's to what ever she wants to say.
I think that is a good answer because passion is right she cant talk with out the middy talker she can not do nothing with that board it was words that she already new
I agree with you because she finally has a voice of her own,and she can talk back to mean comments.Also Melody can tell what she thinks instead of people like Molly and Clair thinking Melody is D=dumb. Marcos@Sherwood
Her computer changes her life because she can express her feeling to people and say i love you to her mom and dad and she named her computer Elvira because its one of her favorite songs.
It changes her life because she can not talk but the computer can talk for her. Also she named it Elvira because it is one of her favorite songs. Another thing that I can say is that it changes her life because she can finally say what she really wants to say to about Molly and Claire. Also it changes EVERYONE'S LIFE because Melody can finally fit in with EVERYONE and EXPRESS her FEELINGS with EVERYONE!!!!!!!
I think Melody would EXPRESS her feelings better than other people that cant talk walk EXPRESS her feelings!I think if melody could EXPRESS HER feelings better THAN ANYBODY!
I think that it is sad that Melody has to have somebody help her eat, in chapter 22 Melody can't eat the pizza that Rose's parents bought for the quiz team. Also, Melody is sad because she can't have any of the pizza because, Catherine isn't there to help her.
Melody's new computer changes her life because Melody finally gets to share her smarts,and tell her parent's things.Also she named her new computer Elvira after her favorite song. Khalil@Sherwood
Elvira has changed Melody's life by letting Melody have a sort of voice.Also it has changed Melody's life because she can finally express her feelings.Last she named the Medi-talker Elvira because Melody loves the song.Marcos@Sherwood
The way that the Medi-talker changed Melody's life is by her being able to communicate with her friends and family.Another way that that the Medi-talker changed Melody's life is her being able to say what she truly think's about people and the things she wasn't able to say! The reason why Melody named her machine Elvira is, because it was named after her favorite song. Diamond@Sherwood
The medi-talker didn't really change her life because many kids at Melody's school still act and talk to her the same way.And when I mean the same, I mean all the kids are still mean to her.What did change is the fact that Melody can now tell her teacher things that she needs but way better than before with her communication board.Last of all Melody can now tell her parents how much she loves them like when she first told them,"I love you mom, I love dad." Alejandro@Sherwood
Elvira Melody's medi-talker changed Melody's life by letting her talk for the first time in her life.Now she can answer all the answers to Mr.Dimming and talk back to Molly and Claire, the mean girls.She can also talk to Rose and tell her how she feels.Melody is going to be a normal kid that talks. Jennifer@Sherwood
Melody's Medi-talker changed her life because now the students and the teachers will know how much she knows. Also it changed her life because she can now talk and be able to answer some questions in school. Melody named her Medi-talker Elvira because she is in love with the song called Elvira so that's why she called her Medi-talker Elvira. aimeelynn@sherwood
I think how it changes her life with Elvira is good . She can say what she wants now.Melody called her Medi-Talker Elvira because she named it after her favorite song. Avien@Sherwood
I think Elvira,( The computer ) changed Melody's life because now she can prove to the class that she has knowledge, all the words stuck on her head has now gotten out of Elvira. Now she can say stuff to her parents that she never had a chance to say. Now she can join the Wiz Quiz team, like she wanted. She named her Medi Elvira from the song she liked.
It changed her life because Melody saw Rose with a computer so Melody asked Catherine for a computer like Rose's computer so Melody got a Medi-Talker for her to speak and learn and named it Elvira by a song she liked.Melody also brings it to school for the quiz test because she wanted to try it out but when she won the candy bar everybody just stared at her looking disappointed.Now she can speak to her family and friends also Mrs.V,Penny,and everyone else she knows. AniyaW@Sherwood
Melody was so,so happy when she got the Medi-Talker also,now she can do good on the quiz test if, she make the team but, if she don't make the team the team is going to lose and, do not get to go to Washigton D.C and I bet they was going to be mad. Marc@SHERWOOD
I know that Elvira Melody's computer changed her life because she can talk to others and express her feelings.Now she knows what it feels like to talk because before she didn't really have a chance to do that.Also now she can answer the questions,talk back to Molly and Claire, and talk to Mr.Dimming and most importantly thank Catherine and Mrs. V. Aniyab@sherwood
The day that Melody got her new power wheelchair she was so happy and she had help from Mrs.V (I thought that was really kind of her for doing that). When she got it she finally got to share what was on her mind, her feeling, expressions, relations and many other things.
The computer changes melody's life. It change her life because before she got the computer she couldn't talk and express her thoughts. But now that she has the computer she could talk and express her thoughts by typing in the computer. she name it the computer Elvira because that is her favorite song that's she like to listen.
