    I wonder if your prediction will be correct?

  17. I predict that Prospero will be Duke of Milan again and Caliban is left on his island all alone (happy) that Prospero finally left.

  18. Miss Lee says:

    I hope Prospero makes it safely back to Milan too!

  19. Elisa ?✨? says:

    Good morning everyone,
    I watched the two videos, then I did the quiz and I only got one question wrong!
    I predict that in the next part Ferdinand, Prospero, Miranda and everyone else who came on the island will be able to go back to Milan and it will be like before somehow.

  20. Miss Lee says:

    That would be a happy ending! I hope your prediction is correct!

  21. 1) Ferdinand’s back is aching because Prospero was making him carry lots of logs.
    2) I tortured you for a long time
    3) Prospero was testing Ferdinand’s love ❤️ for Miranda.
    4) Prospero was trying to show that he is still stronger than Ferdinand and Miranda.
    5)(a) Quietly
    (b) He instructed his servant
    6) “No tuonge” Means be quiet. ?
    (b) Command
    (c) Prospero is annoyed because no one will listen to him.
    7) 3 goddesses appeared.
    8) Iris is goddess of the the rainbow.
    9) They had a vision of a celebratory wedding

  22. Miss Lee says:

    Well done Vincent! You have answered in full sentences!

  23. I think Prospero will get Caliban, Trinculo and Stephano to build him a boat out of all the wood and go back to Milan. He will leave them there on the small island.

  24. Miss Lee says:

    A good idea! How do you think he will persuade them to build his boat?

  25. Good morning everyone (and good afternoon Lucy?)
    I only had tone wrong on the quiz. Does any body know the answer
    For the question about the goddesses? I picked Juno, Venus and Cenus though I think it was Juno Venus and something else.

    My prediction that Ferdinand and Miranda will come together as couple is right for in the video of week 5, they are married.
    My prediction that Prospero would set a trap is also correct. This happened when Ariel put a lodes of gowns in Prospero’s cave.
    One of my predictions are king Alonso finds out that Ferdinand and Miranda are married so he becomes upset. Sadly this day d not happen in the story of week 5.

    My prediction now, is that Ariel will be free. I used evidence of the text which is that Prospero promised him his freedom and like he is the hero of our story, I think he will keep his promise.

  26. Miss Lee says:

    Brilliant Stella! Well done for making such accurate predictions which both came true! Also, super work for using evidence from the text to support your prediction of the ending!

  27. 1)Ferdinand was bruised and aking because the logs kept getting heavier each second.
    2) “I made you suffer a lot” is another way of saying,” I punished you greatly”.
    3)Prospero has been testing Ferdinand’s love for his daughter. Miranda.
    4) He wanted to show them their wedding.
    5)The adverb in the phrase ‘ Quietly he instructed his servant, who bowed and sped away’ is quietly.
    6) He means for him to be quiet.
    b- commanded
    c- he was annoyed because they were so loud.
    7) Three goddesses appeared for Ferdinand and Miranda.
    8) Iris is the Goddess of the rainbow.
    9) They saw spirits dancing at there wedding.

  28. Miss Lee says:

    Well done Stella! You have explained your answers clearly!

  29. I have completed my comprehension in my book

  30. amarissa says:

    umm…
    I didn’t expect the ending was going to happen… -_-

  31. Miss Lee says:

    Sometimes stories have a surprise twist at the end! What do you think will happen next?

  32. amarissa says:

    1)he was working for prospero
    2)I have made you suffer
    3)love
    4)the wedding
    5)quietly
    6)no talking
