Chapter Blogging

Here is my blog about Chapter One of "."

These are the things I want you to include in your blog about each chapter you read:
1. Summarize the chapter, please. What is the setting? The plot? The main idea? The mood? What is happening in the chapter?!

2. List any vocabulary you found that you did not understand at first and then tell us how you figured out the meaning (context clues? dictionary?). Also, list any vocabulary you really liked and tell us why you find that word interesting!!

3. Who is/are the main character(s) in this chapter?

4. What are your thoughts about the story after reading this chapter?

5. What are your predictions for the rest of the book?

6. List one or more new things you learned in this chapter. Explain, please.

7. List one or more questions you have for me or for your classmates after reading this chapter.

8. Do you have anything else you want to say about the book? Do you like it so far? Are you excited to read what happens next? Would you want to read other books like this one?

9. Please go to the blog of the classmate that sits to your right in class and make a comment about something he/she said in his/her blog! Be nice, please, and show your online etiquette that we learned about.

10. Is there anything else you would like me to teach you about after reading this chapter in the book? Any activities you would like to do? Something you would want to learn how to research on the internet??

11. HAVE FUN!!!
