Comments for Kids Summary for October

Comment #1 Melanie's Blog 10/5/14

Melanie is a sixth grade student in Mrs. Rivera's reading class. For her blog post title she asked an open ended question about a book she believed to be a good read. She asked, " Would you recommend this book to someone else? Why or why Not?" Then she wrote a persuasive argument about why she believed this was a good book to ready. The book's title was "Confetti Girl". This book appears to be a teenage romance novel about a group of friends who go to the beach to search for items for their project. Two of the friends, Vanessa and Carlos, are in a romantic relationship with one another. When it is time to go Lina searches for them because they are missing. Surprisingly, she finds them behind a sane dune kissing. I commented on Melanie's blog that she made a successful persuasive argument about the book. She gave an informative summary about the characters, setting, and plot of the story. The book seems like it would be a good read for a teenage girl. She replied to my comment saying, " Thank you so much."

Comment #2 Amanda's blog 10/12/14

Aanandm is a fifth grade student who did a creative writing assignment on her blog post. She gave her pencil a voice so she used personification as her writing element. Her pencil spoke from the perspective as someone who hated writing. Every time the pencil was forced to write it became sad and angry because it doesn't like to. I told Aanandm that she has a very imaginative mind and I encouraged her to keep being creative because one day she could use her imagination to create a movie or write a book. Although, she doesn't like writing I told her to keep doing it because practicing would make her better at it. She loves math. I told her its good she loves it because we use it everyday and employers love people who are good at it.

Comment #3 Ryan's Blog 10/19/14

Ryan is a student who blogged about his very first baseball game. He described a play from the ninth inning. The batter stepped up to the plate, hit the ball to center field, and the center field catcher dropped the ball. The runner made it to third base. The center fielder threw the ball to second base, then it was thrown to picher, then the catcher and the runner was declared out. Ryan's team won the game ten to eleven. I told Ryan is sounds like he enjoyed his first game. I explained that Baseball is a wonderful sport and that he should always work hard and be a good teammate.

Comment #4 James' Blog 10/26/14


James gave an interesting history lesson on his blog. He wrote about the history of Israel and their people. These people are the only nation in the world whose religion, land, and language has remained the same for over 3,000 years. Their patriarchs are Abraham, Isaac, Jacob. He included references from the Bible and Torah to support his findings and gave a thorough overview of the Israeli people lineage. I commented by telling him that this was a wonderful blog post and explained how the patriarchs of Israel resemble our American founding fathers.
