4. Conflict
The conflict in my story was that Abby was not doing her school work, so she is failing the sixth grade. But in order to get that grade up she has to get all A’s and B’s for the rest of the year, and do one extra credit project. This conflict is a man VS. man conflict.

5. Prediction
My prediction wile reading “Extra Credit”. When I started reading the story I absolutely thought that Abby was going to change. This is because she got the extra credit project. Also she was thinking she was going to be left back, Then I knew she wanted to change.
