Dear, Mrs.Zrihen RJ#7 702 10/11/11
I am currently reading the book Abraham Lincoln by Ronald White I am loving this book because it is giving me information I did not expect a lot. This book includes information from how Lincoln was around the house all the way to who he was personally and all the hard parts he went through in life.Abraham Lincoln lived a life as a boy who works for his parents. He was a very nice boy in his childhood and in his teens.
I used many strategies throughout before reading I looked for literary elements and I skim and scanned for text features. During,.reading I reread parts I did not understand and I summarized every chapter to my-self. After reading the book I tried to compare it to a different book I have have about Abraham Lincoln, and after reading I also made names for the chapters because they did not have any.
The genre of this book is biography, the topic is Abraham Lincoln, and the main idea is Abraham Lincoln's life as he grew up. Three supporting details were he worked hard, he was a good kid & , he had some issues as he grew up almost like every kid back then. The elements in this story are very different. The pattern of organization is identify and explain. The authors purpose informational. A response I used was I found out how hard Abraham lived a hard life.
I would rate this book a 10 out of 10 for now because it is pretty well especially the way it is written.
I did not write a long RJ because I am not done with the book.
Sincerely, Bar Peretz
Dear Bar,
ReplyDeleteI like your readers journal, but I have some questions. First, were there any other P.O.O.'s? Also, what were some of the cause and effect relationships? Lastly, what were some figurative language examples?

dear Bar,
ReplyDeleteThis was a good readers journal! Some questions I have for you are how did you figure out the main idea. Also, how did you figure out what the genre was? Was therre any figurative language in this book?? what were some text features that you found? if so, How did you use it to help you?
Other than that, I suggest that you make a longer readers journal even if you aren done. you should actually be making lots of predictions actually.
Sincerely,
Melinda Hebert :)
Dear mikey,
ReplyDeleteNot many cause and effect in fact I did not see any and ther were no other p.o.o because a bio only has one.
