Chapter 11 to 13

How have the events of chapter 10

changed the relationship between Jesse

and his family in these chapters? Give

three examples from today’s reading to

support your answer.

 After Leslie died his family was supporting him. 

His dad started to care about him and help him with his emotion. 

His family is was starting to be a bit more kind to Jesse and respecting his space and art. 

In your opinion, why do you think Jess decided to share Terabithia with May Belle? 

I think Jesse let May Belle in Terabithia because he wanted to share it with her because he might have been lonely. He might also wanted to share it because he wanted to say sorry for pushing her on the floor. He might have needed someone to trust him more. He might have wanted to form a bigger relationship with May Bell. 

Chapter 10

 “Your girlfriend's dead, and Momma

thought you were dead, too.” (p. 102)

Why do you think the author ended the

chapter like this? What mood or

emotion was she trying to evoke in the

reader

I think the emotions she had is that she scared that Jessie would have died on the rope as well. She was also sad that the only friend Jesse had died. The mood she was in was she was stressed and upset. She was a bit angry at Jesse for not telling her where he was going with Leslie after school. The author ended the chapter like this because he wanted to add some emotions in to the book to make people reflect.

Chapter 8 and 9

 On page 93 the author writes, “Lord, it

would be better to be born without an

arm than to go through life with no

guts.” What do you think this means?

You would rather go through life with your guts than a arm. You need your guts to make decisions during your life time. Your guts tells you if it is the right and wrong decision. Trust your gut more than your arm.

Why does Mr. Aaron come home from work early in chapter 8?

He cam early home because he did not have enough money for clothes. Instead he spent it on other things he needed

Bridge to Terabithia chapter 7

 Imagine you are Leslie. What advice would you give Janice Avery

If I was Leslie I would tell Janice Avery to stop being so bossy to everyone. Another thing is that she must stop being such a cry baby and start wining for everything. Janice Avery needs to stop judging people around like she does to Jesse in the previous chapters. Janice Avery is blaming everyone that she knows just for doing something to her. This is the list if thing I would like Janice Avery to fix.

My Self Portrait 

The best self portrait.

Today we had to create a self portrait. I tried my hardest and I am really surprised that it came out better than I thought. I think I could have done  better by making my lines straighter and making thing symmetrical.  I was learning how to use different tools. I learnt how to use a curving tool. My learning was fun and interesting. Have you tried to make one.

Catherine McAuley 09.02.2021

 Catherine McAuley was born in Ireland in 1778. She was only 5 years old when her father passed away. She had 2 siblings, one brother and a sister. Her brother and sister were Protestants, Catherine McAuley was Catholic like her father. She was in her teens when her mother died with very a high fever. After that she went to live with her friend and family, the Callaghans, in Dublin. She still used to follow in her father's Catholic faith.

 She provided the poor with clothes, food and water. She helped the poor women get jobs to earn money for them selves. One day Catherine McAuley travelled to France to learn how to teach larger classes. She taught  kids on the street the best education they can get. Once Mr Callaghan died he gave Catherine McAuley 650 thousand pounds, and not her daughter, because she was saying things about Catherine McAuley. Now a days it is probably around worth €5 million pounds. 

Catherine McAuley used that money to buy a house for the poor people to stay in. Catherine McAuley built the house on a Baggot street where the rich people used to stay, so that it was visible to them. Then she started the hunt to look for the Sisters of Mercy. The Sisters of Mercy were Catherine McAuley, Mary Elizabeth and Mary Ann Doyle. The rich saw how they were helping the poor so they made donations towards the Sisters of Mercy for better materials. They worked together to help the poor. They taught them how to knit and stitch.

 All the poor people had a wonderful education thanks to the Mercy Sisters. 

 This week we had to write a thank you card. The person I wrote to was my brother Arav. I felt awesome when told  him  I was writing a card when I got home. When I was choosing the person I was going to write for.  My brother gave me a big hug when he I wrote a card for him at the super table. Well in my card I wrote that how he makes me happy. He plays with me scootys, sword fighting and tickle fights. Thank you Arav for looking out for me everyday. This is how the world should behave. People should stop being mean and start brightening peoples day.
