The Bottle Imp


"The Bottle Imp" by Robert Louis Stevenson

You read this short story with Mariana and she asked you to create a special object.

Why did you create "your bottle" the way you did?

What made you do it that way?

hello miss ale I am shure it is EL DIABLO EN LA BOTELLA" because those characters appear in the story,the sumarize was very good and I thought it was very easy to understand the story if I hadnt read the story.the project we did was to make a bottle with something so that it looked like if the DIABLO was in ther.I think that is the answer

ohh sory I forgot to answer the question I made it like that because I thought it would be the best way of making people think there was the DIABLO and so when the people see it they would say ''ohh look that bottle looks like the diablo en la botella''I made it like this:I put alot of white paper around it so that it looked like if there was alot of smoke.also I made a drawing of a DIABLO and put it in so that it looked like it was,there.

Hello miss Ale,
I read your post and in the moment I read it I instantly realized that the book you were referi to was "el diablo en la botella". I also read your summary and think it is very good because you did not make a long resume but you included all main ideas inside of it. The answer for your question is: I created my bottle the way I did because I wanted that when the people looked into it experimentd a sensation that was if like the devil was really in there. I used a mandarine licor bottle that had its glass like "empañado" because I thought that was the devil hot who "empañar" it. I cannot tell you whats inside the bottle, its top secret and none of my friend could guess!!! I cloured the cork red and stuck sticks into it for nobody to open it. It was a very fun project because my dad helped me and we enjoyed making it together. I hope I had answer you your question.
See you tomorrow!

Miss Ale, you made a mistake in the summary: Lopaka doesnt fall in love with Kokua it is Keawe the one that does. Lopaka is a friend Keawe met in a boat.
See you tomorrow!

Hello Miss Ale!
I think the book your reffering to is " El Diablo En La Botella".
I created a bottle of chapagne into a DEVIL bottle! I put a devil around the bottle like a snake and then inside the bottle i put some spiders, that i had from halloween, then i put some PINK things that you use to decorate the cakes like little sprinkles. My bottle had the power of giving you 40 PINK things you wanted, but you couldnt ask fro more than 40 becuase th spiders would eat you! Also once you asked for 1 thing you had to ask for at least 20! When you wanted to get ride of the bottle you had to give back all the things you asked for but if you frogot something the spiders will also eat you!
I loved this project and it was VERY fun. I had a great time decorating my bottle and before doing this bottle i had done at least 4! But this was the best of them!

Good Byeee

Miss Ale,
I was waiting for your post on Friday, but you hadn't seen it, but... on saturday I saw you post that was these one and I couldn't post a comment because I was going. When you had post it, at the beggining I thought that we were going to read a book of the same author as the one that we had read on spanish, el diablo en la botella, but then I had saw what you had asked and I realised that it was EL DIABLO EN LA BOTELLA so here you have my answer to your question:
I had done it the way I did because I wanted the rest of the class to feel scary, and also the smell that had my bottle that it felt good! Really good because it had Strawberry, cherry and frambuesa combined with Mint, so it really smelled Good! I used the permanent marker to decorate a part of my bottle and wrote all scary things.
Miss Ale, I really think that when you put posts to comment about our feelings it is good because it is fun to put how we feel,
So, Keep On Posting,
Good Byee

HELLO MISS ALE,
I THINK THAT THE QUESTION THAT YOU ARE REFFERING IS THE ANSWER THAT I AM GOING TO TELL YOU NOW. MARIANA TOLD US TO MAKE A BOTTLE IN WITCH THE "DIABLO" WAS IN THERE. I MADE A BOTTLE WHERE I PUT COLOURED GLUE INSIDE WITH A LITTLE BIT OF WATER, WHILE DOING THE BOTTLE I WAS PUTTING ALL THE COLOURED GLUE INSIDE AND I WANTED THAT THE INSIDE PART WAS RED BUT INSTEAD IT FINESHED BEING A VERY DARK GREEN!!!
JAJAJA I WAS LAUGHING AND LAUGHING.
THE STORY OF MY BOTTLE IS, THAT IF THE ONE WHO HAD IT WANTED A WISH THE ONLY THING HE/SHE CAN DO IS GET A PAPER AND START WRITTING THE WISHES BUT THEN THE LICK WILL COME AGAINST YOU. IF YOU WANTED TO SELL IT YOU COULDN'T YOU HAD TO PASS IT TO SOMEBODY OF YOUR FAMILLY AND SO ON.
WELL SEE YOU TOMORROW....

Hello Miss Ale, I created my bottle the way I did because I thought of doing something cuty in the outside but I thought that when you opened the bottle the devil would get you and take you inside with the other soles !!!! and as I didn't havea clue of how to do a devil bottle I looked in google with my mum and we chose a foto of a nice devil and I did like the siluete on a paper and then I went to buy the things I neaded with my nanny !!!! When I arrived home again I started creating my bottle I think it was quite well!!!! jajaja

Miss Ale, That book is the Diablo En La Botella,
I did a bottle that had the tail of the devil and the "Triton". In the top of the bottle, I put a light blue tool, that was the smoke, but all the people said it was an Angle Bottle, so when Mariana ask me what was th light blue tool I said that the angel was going to enter, and when It entered, the bottle would explode. It all came by m,y imagination. The power was that when three thiongs of the bottle got together, you could see the future, I did it like that because I always wanted to see the future.
You can "desaparecer" the bottle is you get a plate sezer and cut the three things that get together. Do you like my bottle, from how I am telling it.
See you tomorrow
XOXOXOX

Hello Miss Ale,

THe book we read with Mariana is very funny and short ( specially the ending). My bottle was all covered by "papel celofan" red and a big face of the devil and inside there was a light bulb inside, so when you turn it on, you see a scary, lighten devil. I said that this bottle was made of RUBY and was trapped by the devil. He only has one mission, he looks people wo wants revenge from others. What you have to do is to place your mouth into the bottle´s beak and say what it wants to happen to the person you want, but he only accepts bad wishes. At the next day, the wish would be truebut with total coinsidence. When you start making wishes, you start having an ambition with wishing things (like blogging). Then your personality changes, it turns you powerful, ambicious, dangerous and different. But it always happens that other people discovers what you are doing, so they start trying to steel it, but it alwys happens that the bottle goes to a more dangerous hand. I hope you like my comment.
Good Bye,

Well, I didn't do a big thing about the bottle I created. I just coloured the bottle red to make it something like a devils bottle and then gave it some black strokes to make it look old. Finally I deformed it to make it look as an old bottle which was due to the deformation an old, filthy and antique bottle which had a lot of movement during all its eternity.

PS: I would never have thought that the translation of "el diablo en la bottella" would have been that way. It looks kind of wierd and I've never known that Imp standed for devil, I'd more alike recognise it as a chimp, if someone would have asked me, I would have told him that it was a monkey..

Hello Mis Ale. About this post, are you talking about "El Diablo En La Botella"? Well if you are talking about that I would like to say that my bottle has the face of the devil. I made the face of the devil because for me the devil is inside and he is watching over me. I imagend that the devil had magical powers. You could ask the devil all the wishes you wanted. But if the wish you asked for was not a naughty wish you would have consecuences for a month. I loved this post. I really liked it because you are mixing spanish with english and that is very interesting.I hope you keep posting.

Miss Ale:
We read the book in class but in spanish.It is "el diablo en la botella" in spanish.....
I made the bottle with the head of a devil coming out and flames from the sides. Mariana said it looked like a carnaval in Puerto Rico!!!!
But then she said the flames were the flames of the hell.
I did my bottle this way because in one part of the book the devil appeared and I wanted to represent that part of the story. And also because I invented a special power for the bottle... That is if you ask the devil a wish and his head goes up and down, it means that your wish will come true, but the devil adds a part to your wish. And if the devil says NO he will take all the good part of your wish and will only come true the BAD part.
I hope the question was answered Miss Ale
See you on monday

hello miss ale,to be honest "El diablo en la botella" was the only book that i liked that we read in spanish. i think i did the bottle like that because each person has its own creativity and if we each seen our bottles before giving them to Mariana we would all have similar bottles because we would think that the bottle we made would be wrong and do it similar to anothers person bottle.
