Reading Reflection #3

This week, I've been reading Horrible Harry in Room 2B. The author is Suzy Kline. This book is about a boy named Harry who loves to do horrible things at school. I used some reading strategies to help me understand this book. I didn't know what aquarium meant. I used context clues to figure out that it is a place where fish are kept in tanks. Harry's class went on a field trip to an aquarium. I made a connection when Harry brought a snake to show and tell. It reminded me of show and tell in my Kindergarten class. I used visualization to imagine Harry scaring everybody with his snake.


The End.

Reading Reflection #2

This book that I'm reading is called "Hey L'il D! Take the Court." This book is about 4 friends who like to play basketball on the school court. Then, some bullies tried to steal the court from L'il and his friends. The bullies made a deal. If the 4 friends don't play on the court for 2 or 3 weeks, they'll get to take the court back only by challenging the bullies to a game. If the 4 friends win, they get to take the court back forever, and if they lose they can't play on it anymore. At the very end of the book, L'il D and his friends made 2 new friends to play basketball with.

I like this book because this book has basketball and I really love basketball. And L'il D's dad plays basketball and my Dad plays basketball, too. I would recommend this book for other kids to read. I will give this book a 7 out of 10 rating.

Reading Reflection #1

I'm reading Captain Underpants and the Preposterous Plight of the Purple Potty People. The author is Dav Pilkey. I like this book because all the good guys gathered up and all the bad guys gathered up to fight. They are fighting because the evil twins wanted to rule the whole entire world. I like the part when the good George and the good Harold (the main characters) say "Here we go again!"

Captain Underpants


For my first book review, I'd like to start with a new book that my friend gave me for my birthday last week. It's called Captain Underpants and the Preposterous Plight of the Purple Potty People. I think this will be a very funny book! I will start reading it this weekend and write about it here when I'm finished.
