Welcome!

Making connections between the books you read and your own life is an essential component of reading comprehension. In this blog, students in Ms. Stewart's reading development class will deepen their connections to their books by putting themselves in their characters' shoes.

Below you will read journal entries written by students as if they are the characters they are reading about. Journal entries describe the events taking place in the novel, as well as the students inferences about the ways their character feels about those events.

Please enjoy reading the students' thinking about their books, and feel free to share some of your own or respond to posts that interest you!

fighting

Hi my name is Dean,

When me and my brother got in a fight, I kicked a hole in the wall. My mother had told my sister "don't tell or else you will get in troudle." Then when my mother and father got back from the store I tried to cover up the hole that I kicked in the wall. But, Guess what? My sis ter told anyway! But, she did not tell, she drew it on a sheet of paper. Then she gave the sheet of paper to my mother and my mother told me to come here and I got in trouble.

Some times I hate my sister!

From Dean (Dorsey)
