Wednesday, 2/24: Plot Twist

1. Copy and paste the sentences (with blanks) below and post to your reply. 

    Highlight the blanks and type in your answers to complete the sentence. 
    This should be at the top of your response to tonight's RAMS' question.
    Hit return to start your paragraph.

     Tonight I read ___ written by ___. I read page ___ through page ___. 

2.  Write a paragraph about something that happened in the plot that you would change 
     and tell why. Here is an example response:
          In the book, The Black Stallion, the ship gets caught in a storm and the horse escapes. If I 
     rewrote the plot I would have the horse get stolen from a train car. The main reason I would 
     make this change is that it seems mean to put a horse on a ship. How could a horse like being      on a ship when he is so used to having his hoofs on solid ground? No wonder the horse                wanted to escape.

    Grath got put in prison for disrespecting the King by saying he was not royal. I would have changed it so that Grath showed him respect even though he didn't because Grath seemed like a cool guy

    Katniss sister was elected for the hunger games; Katniss volunteered as tribute.
    I would change Katniss volunteering as tribute. I would make her sister volunteer.
    It would make the story more interesting.

    1. Capitalization error: Book name
      In the first sentence, Katniss should have a possessive apostrophe (') after her name. (Whose sister? Kattniss' sister)

  5. Tonight I read The Puppy Place Patches written by Ellen Miles. I read page 16 through page 22


    Scout went to the same place that Snowball been too. Buddy is getting to like Patches. Buddy is a crazy dog and so is Patches. What I could change in this book is that Buddy and Scout and Patches can be best friends. Why I wanted to change this in my book is because Buddy can have more friends to play with.

    1. Sterling, you consistently forget to put a period ( . ) after the sentence that tells the number of pages you read.

  12. Tonight I read Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets written by J.K. Rowling. I read page 94 through page 102.
    In the book Harry Potter Harry is talking to Ron and Colin. Colin wants to take a picture of Harry because he is famous and he wants him to sign it. Malfoy Crab and Goyle come and start bullying Ron and Harry. He tells Ron that a photo of Harry would be worth more than his family's whole house. If I could change that part I would not have Malfoy Crab and Goyle not be there because they are really mean to them.
