Clue: Do not write your prediction of the story. Instead, search for the examples of foreshadowing in the opening chapters. Your topic sentence should contain the word 'foreshadowing.'

Ububtu Project - Better Sharing Tool
Wow,
I've come across an incredibly simple online sharing tool for you guys to use to share your brainstorms and notes for the next sessions. You can still use Google docs. to store you finished pieces. This requires no sign ups, no passwords just one simple link. It is like a sticky note board for ideas. Groups would just need to copy their URL link into an address bar to get to their specific corkboard. You would all then use this same link at anytime to get back to the corkboard. This 1 min video expalins how it works. The links below are set for for each of the 12 teams. I think this is FAR easier than google docs for online collaboration, especially during the brainstorming stage.

Ignore what it says about limited support in the Explorer browser, it works fine. You can post images by copying the URL (web address of the image)in a sticky note). Try it out and let me know what you think.
