Literature Circle Response (Disscusion Director)

This section was about Bigfoot. Lots of people saw Bigfoot at the 90s. But all the Bigfoot they saw, foot print, hair, a big ape, all was just a hoax. Bigfoot doesn't real.

Reading Response 2

I realized that Big Foot is not real because all the Big Foot's foot printed in the wood were man made, not Big Foot. A lot of people tried to find Big Foot but they didn't found it yet. Big Foot is just a myth.

Reading Response 1

When I read, i  visualized that what's alien look likes and the UFO look like. I can visual the alien was small, with the big head and a thin body. And the UFO was look like the picture show on google.

Reading Strategies (Column 2)

              The reading strategies help me a lot of things about my book. This are the reading strategies I have used for books in this year, summarize, prediction, visualization, inference, question tower, and connections.

            Summary is about write about one or two paragraph about a part that you have read. When you write a summary, you must write the main idea that you read, detail and must be COOL. For example: my book is Bone: Treasure Hunter, it was about Thorn was princess that nobody knew, this is summary of the book.

            Prediction is about to think what will happen in the future. Prediction can be creative, and cool. This helps me what happen next in my book, Bone: Treasure Hunter.

Visualization is about imagining. If you don’t know what is happening because your book don’t have any picture. You must imagining things in the mind or your head. My book was like manga or cartoon so I don’t need to visualize.

Inference is about write your own opinion about your books. Also you need an evidence to support that inference. For example: inference: Smiley Bone greedy, and a money lover. Evidence: when someone gave him gold for his helping, his eye was bright as the sun.

Connections are about connecting your book to yourself, to the text, and to the world. Connect to self mean that you connect to yourself. Connect to text mean connect something that relate to it. And connect to world mean to connect to the world, places, etc.

Finally, question tower is about the questions that you must answer when before you read a book, during reading the book, and after reading the book. For example: question that before reading a book, what prediction can you make at this point? Question for during reading the book, what happen so far? And question for after reading the book, were any of yours predictions correct?

Blog Entry Midterm

When I read my book, I always think all the reading strategies. For example: visualization, prediction, connection, inferences, summaries and question towers. Visualization helps me when I read the only words; I was imagining what happen in my story when I can’t see the picture in my book. In my opinion, visualize is the most important reading strategy for me.

The next is the prediction. What if you finish the book and you want to read more, the book you going to borrow is someone borrow this book. What would you do? You have to predict to know what happen. In my opinion, this is my second most important strategy for me. I predict that Fone Bone will get beat up, because he commit in a crime that he didn’t do.

 This is my favorite, summary. Summary is writing a paragraph about what you have read. When you write a summary, it must be detail, and write about the main idea. I know writing a summary is really bored but when you write summary for a long time, you can see the fun about summary, like me. In my opinion, this is my third important strategy. You can see your book’s summary, it in the back.

This is my second favorite, inference. Inference is writing your opinion about something in your book and an evidence to support that inference. Inference helps me a lot; help me to understand what is about. In my opinion, I think this is not important reading strategy for me.

Connection is not really my favorite strategy but is helps me a lot. Connection is about connecting your book to connect to yourself, connect to text and connect to world. I’m not usually use connection in for my book because there are not a lot to connect.

The final reading strategy is question tower. Question tower is question that you answer before reading, during reading and after reading. I don’t like question tower, a lot of question to answer. I don’t like to answering question.
