Weekend Update Post 13
Dear KIPPsters,
I hope you had a great weekend! Please write two paragraphs in your post. The first paragraph should explain what you read this week: title, author, number of pages you read, retell of the events that have transpired. This should be approximately 4-5 sentences.
As we approach the holidays, we think a lot about gifts… Describe two gifts you would give to your protagonist. Why would you choose to give them these gifts? What would be his/her reaction to the gifts?
Have fun! See you tomorrow!
Love,

2. Brief summary- What I just finished reading was The Westing Game. It turns out that turtle was the killer. She did it because no one would pay attention to her. Everyone thought she was a lunatic. I would agree!
3. Now tell me what the climax of your book was – The climax of my book is when Turtle starts to find out who Barney Northrup really is.
4. If you hadn’t gotten to the climax then tell a prediction you have.

Love,

Post 10 – A Weekend of Reading…
Dear KIPPsters,
I hope you had a great weekend! Please write two paragraphs in your post. The first paragraph should explain what you read this week: title, author, number of pages you read, retell of the events that have transpired. This should be approximately 4-5 sentences.
The second paragraph should tell me about your reading habits. Where do you read? When do you read? Where do you prefer to read? What are some challenges you face when you read independently? Make us all visualize you reading on the weekend. This should take approximately 4-5 sentences as well.
That’s it. Have fun, bloggers!
Love,
