It is my favorite part because it is the only non boring part in that chapter. I think it is more exciting when Ralph is on the motorcycle.

That is my favorite part, because I was thinking that Ralph was going to end up like his uncle. He was thrown out with the garbage.

He seized the apple core and pushed it to the motorcycle, but he failed. I liked that part because it was funny.  I also liked it because it was really good described. The chapter was called Trapped. I also liked this part because it was kind of the main part of the chapter.

Ralph is a mouse,Keith is a boy. Ralph was in the trash. Keith and Ralph could communicate because they loved motorcycles. Keith and Ralph were good friends right away. Keith even let Ralph ride his motorcycle.

Jenny thought it was going to be hard, but it was not. The next day, she read to Sameera. She tried to teach Sameerra how to write a letter,  but sameerra had to go to ELA. Jenny did not know what ELA was.  She asked the teacher and the teacher said ‘English as a Second Language’.

My favorite was Jenny’s (the main character).

So there was a apple core in the trash and Ralph ate it, and then he went to sleep. He was awoken by foot steps coming to the room.  A boy that owned the motorcycle went looking for the motorcycle and looked in the trash can. He took the motorcycle and saw Ralph. He let Ralph rid the motorcycle.Then it was time for the boy Keath to go to bed. Keath let Ralph rid the motorcycle in the hall. He saw all the rooms and looked down stairs.  He wished he could go down stairs.

Your children over the next several weeks will be diving into answering some important questions:

* What is garbage? Where does it go? Even what is dung? ( third grade boys love to talk about this!) They will learn the history of garbage – (which is rather gross)and why our garbage system today is important. They will also be inspired to find ways to make it better. We have too much garbage today- what can we do? This is an important unit in third grade. We hope they come home inspired!

Today Miss Santella spent time with 3A assessing their prior knowledge and giving them background knowledge before we start our books. Each table got a bag with different garbage inside to analyze the garbage and see if they knew what to do with it. 3b and 3c will do these activities next.
