What is the message he is trying to get across to his classmates?
He is not only trying to get something to his clasmates, but to his teachers as well. He is telling the teachers & students that they are not realizing problems to do with bullying going on everyday. He is telling the students that they are all part of it and that people need to become aware that its not funny. He is also saying to the students that soon enough, they are going to be the unpopular kids who wont have money, or a lot of friends, and that the only reason people are friends with the bullies is that they are afraid of the bullies and think they will beat them up if he doesnt have any respect. Later on in the book, Big Chris starts to realize that thats going to happen to him, so he stops being friends with Burke and Blanchette.

I think you did a good job. I think you should also try to keep away from using MSN language. You understood the actual meaning Elliot was trying to get across to his peers. Your post was enjoyable to read!!!
I think that you have the rite idea but elliot said that every body new about it and not that they were all going to become unpopuler at one piont only that they might other than that good job.
Hey Jason,
I thought your post was great. There is just one thing which you might like to look up; that is that Elliot didn't exactly say that the other students (bullies) were definitely going to get poor or unpopular, he said that they might get unpopular. Besides that your post was great.
