The Audience of the book Schooled by Gordan Korman is young adults. I think this because this book is about a kid changing from homeschooling to a public middle school. It also has drama and some violence. I think the audience could also be 7th or 8th graders.

The book Schooled by Gordan Korman is setting driven. It is setting driven because if Rain(the caretaker of Cap) didn't fall out of the plum tree than she wouldn't have broke her hip. Also if Rain didn't fall out of the tree than Cap wouldn't have to go to public school. The whole book is about Cap in public school. None of the book would have happened if Rain fell out the plum tree.

The book Schooled by Gordan Korman has many structures of text. One being a chronological story because it tells the story day by day. Another structure of text this book has is alternating characters each chapter. In the first couple of chapters it stays was the main character than once he meets the characters the next chapter its on there point of view.

In the book schooled by Gordon Korman has a Dynamic character Capricorn because he experiences changes to his life and his thought of the world. Capricorn did not know the world outside of the small town of Garland. But Capricorn thought the world was the same except for technology. Than after going to his first day of public school he realized that the world is violent and evil.

The conflict in the book Schooled by Gordon Korman. The conflict is Rain the caretaker and grammother falls out of of a plum tree and breaks her hip. Now Capricorn the main character has to attend a public middle school. Cap has lived in Garland where they don't have envy of the basic technology. He has never been exposed to the outside world. Now he has to adjust to this new way of life until Rain fully recovers.

Homeschooled by his grandmother, 13-year-old Capricorn Anderson's life changes when his grandmother breaks her leg. For the first time in his life, he has to attend a public school, live in a normal house and mix with kids his age. When the headmaster Mr. Kasigi first introduces him to the school bully Zach Powers. Immediately he bypasses all the other nerds and is crowned the school president and a good person.

A prediction I can make in the book schooled is that Caps thoughts about his new school will change. I think he will become well known in the school. Also I think people will start to like him. I think this because in the book he tells his grandmother that he dose not like his new school and it is violent and the bully's want to make fun of him. So because Cap saved the people on he bus he will be popular.
