** YOUR TWO TASKS FOR FRIDAY, JAN 29

Wow, guys...the last school day in January?? This month has flooooown by. I am very bummed out to be missing you all again. I am hoping you can do two things for me today on the blog so I can see what you're thinking and learning about a couple of things.

1. Please read the post I made on Monday. At the bottom, notice that there are 3 questions about the obstacles that Percy has come across so far in the book. What I would like you to do is write a little paragraph/summary of what has happened to Percy in his quest so far and what you think is to come. You might simply answer those questions, but use full sentences and paragraphs (SO NOT 1., 2., 3. ) Comment on Monday's post for that assignment!

** If you have read on, make a prediction about the next adventure you think Percy is going to come into contact with in whatever book you are on.

2. After you do that, please write a comment to this post about how you felt about this week. You can ask a question, tell me you're confused, tell me you finally got to liking the book (!! I know this is at least two of you!!)...etc. It can be anything. Even "this week was all right...kind of par for the course." I want to know how you feel heading into the weekend. The more specific you are, the better I can help you come next week.

I can't wait to see you all on Monday.

  1. My thoughts/feelings about the week are that I feel lost and "out of it". I don't know which of you are having trouble with the book or any assignments, which ones of you are falling behind because you need extra help, and which ones of you are actually finally liking the book (I know there are a few recent converts out there!)

    I hope that through this link you will post how you feel and what help you need so I know how we can begin the week next week and where we should go next. I can't wait to be back there on Monday...this is driving me crazy!

  2. I like the book, it is very intriguing, but kind of confusing at times, after i reread the part that i am confused (and ask a little bit of questions) i am alright. I am anxious to see what the ending is.
    :]

  6. So far I like the book, it is very interesting and makes me want to keep reading. Sometimes it confuses me but overall its good. Usually I don’t like the adventure, science-fiction type book but it’s intriguing to read. I think this week has been good so far, but kind of stressful with a lot of assignments. I hope you’re feeling better, and hope to see you next week.
