Maria Elosua (5/9/11) Today in my book club... Ani talked made a connection about how sometimes she doesnt want to do something that she has to just like David didnt want. Also she drew a drawing of the hill were David went to hunt the eggs. Gabriel thought the main idea was how the grandma explains how the mom died, and also how the grandma wanted David to have friends. Ander talked about how the main idea was that he always says no to everything. For example when the grandma asked David if he wanted something he said no (David is selfish). POSTITS.. Gabriel... I think that hes grandma is stoping to every kid because he wants david to have friends. Maria... I made a connection how david is very mad and people mighth think him bad but they dont know his story (that his mom died) just like my classroom thinks a teacher is very grumpy but mabey we dont know her story.

Ani (5/10/11) Today at our book club... Maria Main Idea: David very mad at his dad because he left his mom and he expresses his feelings by letting his anger out. The grandma tries to cheer him up by trying to get him new friends.

Ani Word Wizard: swaggered, mournfully,and stunts.

Gabo Vital Visualizer: He drew Primrose's house as David was going inside.

Ander Word Wizard: sake, tizzy.

Gabo Creative Conector: Text to Self: that one time at south padre island a weird guy came to his apartment and he ran away. Text to world: and that he thinks when scientists need to go to explore things they don't know about.

Post Its: Ani: David is very affected by his mom's death, and never got over it. Why? What made her so important? Maria: i made a connection when a teacher was very mad with us and mabey something happened to her and we don't think about it, we just think that she is mean. Mabey David is grumpy for a reason and people think him bad, they don't know that it's because his mom died. Ander: Why does David always disagree with everybody? Gabo: I think that David is very brave (more than me) because he goes into a stranger's house only because a weird lady sent him a note.

Ander Jobs: Gabo: Word Wizard: yanked,snickered maria: Creative conecter : Vital vizualaser: they were on the hill grabing eggs post its:Ani how can primorose and David get along while ay the same time hurting and insulted each other Gabo how did david enter to the ladys house very normal, where did he learn to be very brave? Ander:David is feeling scared because he got into the house and it was all black and only hear noises.

Maria Elosua 5/17/11 Ani: creative connector, vitual vitualizer... pg.128 she connected to another book how david doesnt want her mother to be replaced. and she compared there reactions. ani painted how they were looking for worms.

Ander: Main idea David is now being happy because he has friends.

Postits: ani... wondered why david got so mad at primrose simply pretending to be his mother. gabriel...he connected david to his life because to my cousin his mother died and he feels bad for him. ander..he feels happy for david because he has friend and for the first time he is more happy.

Ander 5\23\11 Gabriel: main idea- One of the main points is that david and Primrose are not friends anymore. hate each other and don't talk any more Maria: creative conector : In the world friends separate, vital visualiser: walking to Filadelfia.

post its- Ani - why dosent primrose realize that her mom wants to get on her good side. maria- I can connect this because sometimes i don't want to show my friends stuff because they might think she is weird but i realize my friends help me.
