The Witches

I finish to read a book called "The Witches" by Roald Dahl. This story is about a boy and witches who has strange power. Tow mice, Bruno and main character, try to attack the Grand Witch who is head of the witches with poison made by the Grand Witch. Both mice steal the poison from her and put it in dishes for witches. When the witches eat the poison, they suddenly turn into the mice.

I used two strategy called "I predict what will happen next" and "I use dictionary when I have unknown words". These strategy encoursge me to read story. One make me feel insterest to imaginate about what will happen in the story. For example, the main character try to attack the Grand Witch by poison she created, because she use it to him to turn into mouse. The other strategy helps me to read story more deeply. I used it when I do not understand meaning of the word "saucer". After i use this atrategy I can understand it means "dish".

The Witches

I read a book called "The Witches" by Roald Dahl. This story is about a boy and witches who has strange power. One day in the hotel, the boy meets a fat boy named bruno. A main character sees that Bruno is changed into mouse by the Grate Witch who is the head of witches when Bruno enters the meeting room there are many witches who hate children. Then the main character is also changed into mouse by her.

I used two strategies called "I use a dictionary to help me understand what I read" and "I use pictures, drawings, tables, and maps in the text to help me understand better what I am reading". Both strategies are very helpful for me to read the story clearly. TI used "I use a dictionary to help me understand what I read" when I find unknown words. For example, I did not know the word "devour", but I got it means "to eat some thing very quickly". I also used "I use pictures, drawings, tables, and maps in the text to help me understand better what I am reading" when I could not understand what happen in the story, such as when I read the parts which tells Bruno is changed into mouse by the witch.

I pridect the main character and Bruno will try to counterattack to the witches and kill the all of witchese who attend the meeting.

The Enchant Garden

We discussed the setting of the story called "The Enchant Garden". We talked about location of story and we solve it is in Italy because there are some words which sounds like italy such as "villa". Also I think if the charactors are Japanese, they will go into garden. There are two types of japanese, one is the person who is curious to do everything, and the other one is person who act by the rule. Most of cases, one says "lets do it!"and the others follow him/her.
