Book Groups


The group i was in for book groups is Running out of time by Margaret Haddix. The thing that well in our group was asking good questions and taking turns to answer them. The things that didn't go so well was deciding what chapter we were going to read up to. What i think that i gained from the experience was taking turns to answer and that everyone has to contribute so they can unlock crackers so nobody lets the people down in their group.

Cat in the Hat by Dr Seuss

When I was little I loved to read Cat In the Hat by Dr Seuss.


The plot in the book is about this boy and girl and they are stuck at home while their mother is out and they couldn't go outside to play because it was raining. Then the Cat in the Hat came in and started causing trouble with thing 1 and thing 2, and then the fish saw their mum walking back so they captured thing 1 and thing 2 and told the Cat to get out so he did. Then they looked at the house at it was a complete mess. Then the Cat came back with this machine that cleans and tidied their house.
