Question Number Three - What caused Miss Strechberry to be so interested in Jack's first poem? Describe what Miss Stretchberry does to get Jack to write more poems, especially about the blue car.

Answer Number Three - I think what caused Miss .Stretchberry to be so interested in Jack's first poem is the fact that Possibly she thought there was a special reason why Jack wrote his poem about the mysterious blue car, especially because he really didn't want t tell why he wrote his poem about the black dog ! Also what Miss. Strestchberry does to get Jack to write more poems, especially about the bu car is she shows him this poem called The Tiger By William Blake, so Jack get's inspired by William Blake's poem and so Jack writes another poem similar to his , but instead of using a tiger Jack #|uses blue car So when Jack is finished Miss .Stretchberry types out his poem about the blur car, but Jack asks her not to write his name just encase someone thinks it doesn't look like a poem or isn't a poem ,, then she displays it for everyone to see !

Question Number Four - How does Jack respond when Miss Strechberry asks him to write a poem about a pet? Why do you think Miss Strechberry insists Jack write the poem, despite his reaction?

Answer Number Four - Jack responds to Miss Stretchberry when she asks him to a poem about a pet because at first Jack has states that he doesn't have any pets at all, but then he admits he use to have a one pet, a dog named Sky ! Then Jack has said that e didn't want to write a poem or anything about his old pet dog ! So maybe Miss .Strechberry thinks that there is a sad, depressing, and painful thing that's happened in the past about his old pet dog that he might be too sad to write about !

Yes, borrowing from others does help Jack develop his own style ! One example is when Jack borrowing ideas from the Red Wheel borrow poem, to transferring it to the Blue Car Poem, because it says So much depends upon A Red Wheel-Barrow in The Red Wheel-Barrow poem but Jack changes it to So much depends upon a blue car ! Another example is all of the concrete poetry Jack has written, in most of his poems so far he writes the poems in a special shape !

That's supposed to be a poem ?, and different things like that, but his classmates ask Who wrote that ? , and they actually like his work !
