My Athena Presentation

Last Thursday, I did a presentation on the greek goddess, Athena. If I had to rate my presentation from 1 to 10, I would say my presentation was a 9 because I did okay, but I stopped or made a mistake a few times. I do think that all my friends  should get a ten though, because all of the girls did wonderfully. I'm not saying anything about all the boys because some of them I think should have a 2 and some a 10 and some in between. My favorite prop was my owl because I loved holding it and playing with it's wings. my other props were: a sword, a shield with Medusa's head on it and a helmet. I think that if I could choose, I would choose to do my presentation again. I would do it so I could talk about my favorite goddess (Athena of course!) and so I could see wonderful Lewi.

My 2nd Prediction

I predict that Rob will give the note that his principal gave him( an excuse to get him out of school because of the rash on Rob's legs that the principal doesn't know will never go) to his father, and while Rob goes to see the tiger, he calls the principal and tells him the rash will never leave, so Rob has to go back to school. I hope that Rob will find the tiger!

Befriending

Today, I read another chapter of The Tiger Rising. In it, I found out that the girl in the pink lacy dress's name was Sistine and she seemed to hate Rob, but I think that they will become friends.I also think that Sistine will be the one who says "Wanna be friends?"I am sure I am right.

Seven Seas or Seven C's?

When Sindbad sailed the seven seas, his cheeks were red and ruddy. But when  Sally came home with seven C's, ma kept her home to study. The moral of this story is that people cheer for exploration but you can't go anywhere without an education.

Awareness Month

Did you know that April is National Awareness Month?Have you ever had a time that you wished that you had listened better?Well I have and it goes like this: One time I was reading a book at my house and my mother told me something. I didn't hear her, but when she said "OK?" I nodded. The next day, a friend asked if I wanted to have a sleepover on the night of the Talent Show. I knew mom would say yes. But when I got home, I was told that a friends of my mom was going to drop off her daughter for a sleepover after the Talent Show. So that was what my mom said. If only I'd listened!

How The Author Engaged Me

Today, I read chapters one and two of The Tiger Rising. I found out that the main character of the story is a boy named Rob. Two other characters are Billy and Wharton Threelonger. They are bullies that always torment Rob and they are on the same bus.

One day, Rob sees a tiger pacing around in a cage. Then, the same day, a new girl with long blonde hair and a lacy pink dress comes on the bus. Ooh! I wonder what will happen next! Maybe the girl owns the tiger!
