"Standard #7:Reads a book"

I am going to read "A Family Apart"
*I have to read every day for 20 minutes, and log to a blog at least 2 days a week
*my logs will be 6-8 sentences long

My favorite book

I would have to say one of my favorite books is The Tale of Despereaux by Kate Dicamillo because it is a very adventurous book about a brave mouse. I kind of forget some parts because I read the book in battle of the books in third grade. I can still remember that it was a good book though.

In class this week, we will create 3 posts on our individual blogs. To get this information, pull it off of Ms. Carton's blog and paste it into your post.

What I accomplished today

I followed all of the directions on the paper and answered the questions on the powerpoint for option number one for the first hit.

1/25 Class Time Standards Focus

I am going to focus on my persuasive techniques standard today.

Persuasive Techniques

What is your favorite jingle?
-One of my favorite jingles is, "More saving, more doing, that's the power of the home depot." This is one of my favorites because I find it very catchy.
What slogan do you find yourself saying?
-I find myself saying the Sicily's Pizza commercial a lot because the number and jingle is easy to catch along with.

"My Predictions"

I predict that this man is going to trip over the sidewalk while chasing this dog because his foot looks like it is under the sidewalk, his is crouching down, and it looks like he is running fast.
The man, looking angry is chasing the dog with a tool in his hand.

I predict that the cat is going to play with the turtle because they look like good friends hugging each other, the turtle looks like he is trying to get out of the cat's paws, and the animals are cuddling up with each other.

A Good Book

I think "Deep Down Popular" is a good book because the charters in the book are interesting and adventurous. The protagnist is pretty easy to follow along with.
