Week 1 - March 17 - March 18
Give the title, author, publisher, copyright date, genre (how do you know the genre - fro the back of the book, title page, text?), a description of the cover of the book, and the main character(s) that you have met so far and on what page you first met them. Use complete sentences and ensure that you have proficient mechanics.
Beastly By Alex Flinn, published by HarperCollinsPublishers 2007, the genre is fantasy! I know this because Ms. Luthey told me, another reason why I would know the genre of the book is because on the back it said "An engrossing tale -VOYA" & when I saw the word Tale I thought of fairy tales. :D The cover of the book looks like ah romantic book because it has a flower, white rose, but it didn't look so interesting because it only had the white rose & the title.
The characters I have met in the story are:Kyle, he's the main character! I think he's the main character because I met him on page one & he was telling the story about himself. Then Mr. Anderson, he runs a computer chat room to help people who have been turned into what they are or who want to be transformed into something or someone. Silent Maid, she's a mermaid. She falls in love with a man she saved in the sea. Froggie, i met him on page 2(before part one). Last I met grizzlyguy, he just wants too talk about some girls. (pg. 3 before part one)
I'm starting to wonder who these characters are because of their names & the Disney movies.

Daphz,
ReplyDeleteHow else could you have determined what the genre is aside from what your teacher told you? How did you know Kyle is the main character? I'm glad that you are starting to wonder who the characters are because then you are starting to get curious.
Grade: 5 PP
Next steps: Make sure that you are using your mentor texts to help you determine what proficiency looks like. Also, check your mechanics. How could you have written a paragraph using the publishing information instead of just listing it?
