STEP 1: Go to the Book Club wiki: http://bookclub5asfm.wikispaces.com/ STEP 2: Click on your group’s page. STEP 3: Record what was discussed that day during your meeting. Please look at the example below. - melancholy - parson - dwindle - brooch T-S: - Justin connected to Winnie because sometimes he feels trapped by his fame and he is tired of everyone telling him that he has to dress a certain way, not get a haircut, etc. He has often thought of running away, but he doesn’t know where to go without being noticed… being that famous and that good looking is hard. T-T: Connected part about the Tuck’s living forever with Percy Jackson when he is given the choice to be immortal. T-W: The Tucks had to leave a farm and people they loved because people didn’t understand them. Many people are forced to migrate because of their beliefs. For example, many people left Britain for the 13 colonies because of religious persecution. - Visualization 1: the clearing where the tree with the spring was. Useful words: enormous tree, thick roots rumpling the ground. - Visualization 2: Winnie’s house. Useful words: proud, peaceful appearance Main Idea 1: The author is using the first two chapters to explain the setting and introduce the characters. Main Idea 2: Winnie is a sheltered and scared girl. She is afraid to leave her own from yard and the author gives a look into her thoughts during the conversation with the toad. - this book is too slow and boring, but like how the author builds suspense. - the author does a really good job with cliff hangers at the end of each chapter.
