Artknits Richmond Hill Articles: Bluefish chapter 10: what is all about? (expecpt for the Velveeta on ... part)

 Travis has a project about a skit to do in his social studies class. Travis does not like to work in groups just like Velveeta. Travis likes to work all by himself. said Ms. Gordon when she faced to Travis. He does not want to do the outline. Travis was being so lazy. This is why Travis does not like going to school because of his social studies project.  Travis was not an A+ student because he did not hand in his paragraph on literature, and he returns a blank piece of paper for the vocabulary quiz on Wednesday. Mcqueen wanted Travis to come to the office, and Mcqueen wanted Travis to do a book review on his "Fox" book. Mcqueen wanted to find a way for Travis to read better in class. He cannot read like his classmate does. Travis has a learning disorder. Travis gave up on his reading project because when Travis was so bad at reading. Travis does not keep trying at all. And, this is wrong.
