Map Testing

Hmm... I don't really get this question. Oh, now I get it. It's A. Did I get it right please say yes. And... the answer is correct.

We just started Map Testing and so far it's turning out pretty well. I never had a Map Test before and in A.C.S. we do it every year. Today I have a Map Test in math. I hope I do well. 

Befriend

In the fourth chapter of the book The Tiger Rising I think Rob will try to make friends with Sistine. I think the way Rob makes friends with Sistine is that he shows her the tiger and Sistine will love it and that's probably how he makes friends with her. Another guess is that she won't become friends with the Threemongers. After Sistine and Rob become friends, she won't be so mean to him anymore. They're are probably going to be really good and happy friends together.

A time when I should have listened better

I had lots of experiences when I didn't listen to someone. One of them was when I woke up in the morning and I went downstairs and ate my breakfast and on the way back up the stairs my mom called out "don't forget to make your bed" and I said O.K. Then after I brush my teeth and went back downstairs and got my shoes on and then the bus came and I left. When I got back from school that day my mom was upset and annoyed and I felt really bad what I did because when I was in school are maid had to make my bed. Next time I'm going to be more aware.

How the Author has Engaged me

I'v just read the first two chapters in the book named The Tiger Rising and it has been really interesting for me. In the beginning it engaged me because it was mysterious. The author's name is Kate Di Camillo. This boy named Rob lives in a motel named Kentucky Star and one day when he was walking in the he found a tiger in a cage. In the first two chapters it was amazing and descriptive how she caught me. I can't wait until I read the book tommrow!

Prediction on the book The Tiger Rising

In the book The Tiger Rising, I predict it will be realistic fiction. I think it will be realistic fiction because on the cover this girl is riding on a tiger so, it's possible to tame a tiger. Another   prediction is that the girl on the cover of the book got a tiger when she young and it grew up with her and when the years passed both of them loved each other and when their both adults the tiger let her ride on his back. I also predict the tiger is a boy.

This is the end of my prediction for the book The Tiger  Rising by Kate Di Camillo.

About School

In school it has been fun. I have done activities and games in all the classes I have. I have been working on a Ancient Greek project. I did a book about Ancient Greece and little people. In fractions it was hard at first but then it became a little easier.

Reflection on Blogging

We got back from spring break and my awesome computer teacher, Mr. Nadjib said that I was going to make a blog. First I created a blog. Then I started to write my first blog that was called My name is Devin Vaughan. It is very simple creating a blog. Once you now how to use it, it's really fun.
