    I read wayside School Gets a Little Stranger. By Louis Sachar. I had a comment It is silly to go to the principals office for just pulling someone's hair you could just problem solve.

    I read The Berenstain Bears Go to School by Stan and Jan Bearenstain. I had a connection while I was reading. My connection was that I was scared on the first day of kindergarten too.

    I read Aquamarine by Alice Hoffman. The strategy that I used wile I was reading was if I didn't know a word was I tried other words to see which one made sense.

    Tales from the Odyssey by Mary Pope Osborne
    The reading made me ask many questions.
    Why did the Cyclopes kill some of the Odyssey crew?
    When is the Odyssey going to return to Ithaca?

    I read Geronimo Stilton The Mystery in Venice. My strategy is if I do not know what a word is reread and read the sentence after that sentence. I have a connection on the first page... it's I think Venice is pretty too! I learned a new word too... it's torturous and it means he does not like it or it is like being torchered.
