Fish in a Tree

 Hola Everyone,

In hurumanu one (With AL Miss Allen's Class) we have been doing some reading activities. We got split into groups with AL and were given separate work for each group. My group is the book study. We read a book and then answer some questions and do some activities. The book I am currently reading is called "Fish in a Tree". Have you heard of it? It's a really nice book and I love reading it. I'm only up to chapter 16 but its so exciting.

Reading Comprehension

1) The card Ally gave to her teacher was a sympathy card. A sympathy card is something
you give to loved ones you lost. Ally’s message was misunderstood and people thought that
Ally gave Mrs hall that card to tell her you’re sorry she needs to leave us to go have some
dumb baby.


2) Ally tries to apologise to Mrs Hall but misses the chance to because her mind goes blank
from guilt. She might have also ran because she realised she had missed her bus. ?


3) Ally can’t read it herself so it makes her feel like its a gift in a glass box like it’s
always on display


4) I find writing difficult because I am not able to put my understanding and feelings into a piece
of writing. I find it easy to do maths and reading though.


5) Ally's mum misunderstood her daughter, thinking that she was just trying to be the
class clown; because Ally is always sent to the principal’s office, without knowing her daughter’s
difficulties with reading and writing.

Silver dollar day

A silver dollar day for me would probably be my birthday. We had a lot of food and could eat as much

as we wanted. Every birthday I would always ask my parents to take me to eat. I love eating.
