  1. Tonight I read The wind in the Door written by Madeleine L'Engle. I read page 158 through page 160.

    Meg is my favorite character in the book. She's thirteen and she is Charles Wallace's older sister. She had freckles on her face and she has purple glasses. She really cares about Charles Wallace and stands up for him against the echthroi and Mr. Jenkins, his mean principal. She's mostly happy, but sometimes gets angry when people bully Charles Wallace. Meg is brave and she cares a lot about Charles Wallace.

    1. Please use R&W Gold to listen to your paragraph. Parts of it do not make sense. Make sure there are periods at the end of your sentences. Add commas before and after "of course" and look for capital letters in the middle of your sentences that should be lower case.

    1. Good job! You need to add a period to the end of the sentence about how many pages you read. Please change the word "vary" to "very" in two sentences.

  14. Tonight I read The Dagger Quick written by Brian Eames. I read page 73 through page 96. I think Kitto would be more like me because, he always disobeys his little brother just like me. So that is why I picked Kitto instead of anybody else.

  15. Tonight I read half moon by eoin colfer. I read from page 26 to page 34.
    In my book today i read how half moon got his private detective's badge taken away from him. the reason is because he got in a fight and detectives don't get involved in fights because their job is to come after the fight and investigate. I hope he can get his badge back so he can help a girl get her necklace back.
