I like. I wish. I wonder.
I liked the pictures that went along with what she was saying. I liked the stories that she told about the things she found in her quest finding trash in the river! I liked the way she gave us tips on how we can make a difference with our water by saving it.I liked the way her job cares so much about the envoirment and to preserve and protect all of it. I wish people would listen and help our earth from crumbling. I wish we had more laws to protect all the water from dangerous pollution. I wish there were machines that can help water from getting to polluted. I wish that we could find a formula that would prevent water pollution. I wish that there would be more water cleans ups around the world! I wonder if she ever tested and experimented water samples and showed a class? I wonder where the tap water is from and what process it takes to get to our water system? I wonder how often the water that is polluted go's to and reaches a house water system? I wonder what country in the world has the worst pollution?

 * What might happen in a democracy if the** **government decided to make one religion the state religion as Sudan tried to do?**

Just like in Sudan, we would break out into a nasty civil war because the first amendment said that freedom of religion.

Ordinary
1/28/14 August means he does not look ordinary because of the way he looks. People everywhere judge people by the way they look but not their personality. In public school I was judged on the way I dress and they just supposed I was a weirdo. Although August is normal on the inside not many people will no that because they don't want to get to know him, just judge him.

The grand tour
1/29/14 Yes, I do think people think people with physical disabilities are mentally slow, which the aren't. I think people with physical disabilites are just as smart as everyone else,maybe even smarter.

Darth Sidious
If the teacher knew more about star wars I think Ms.Petosa would had said something, maybe something like "Julian! Please apologize!".

Mr.Browne is a really tall man with a beard. Mr.Browne is a nice teacher that opens the floor to the students.I think Mr.Browne will be a excellent teacher and I would want him to be one of my teachers.

Jack Will
I personally think Jack Will did not mean it but was just going with the flow of the conversation. Jack Will did not want to tell him that he did not want August to follow him around. What Will didn't know was that August heard him and hurt his feelings.

Via
1/30/14 When Via says "the galaxy is changing" she means that there are major changes in her and Augusts life. August is going to school for the first time and he's having some trouble and Via is going to high school.That can change a whole persons life completely.

I feel that Auggie already hears things about him not being normal and I don't think it was right for Via to tell him that he's not normal if he does not go to school. Via should already think of Auggie as normal because in my point of view he's completely normal, he does not have to go to school to be normal. Yes, this did help August go to school but I dont thnk it was the right way o helping him go to school.

Meet Summer!
1/3/14 Summer has long wavy brown, as August described on pg.51. She very pretty and nice like Savanna said she was at the halloween party on pg.122. She has a nice personality and does not care what anyone thinks. She does not worry about popularity and likes to be her self even if others judge her just because of who she hangs out with.

Jack the hypocrite
2/4/14

Jack thinks he's a hypocrite because when August had no one to sit with he did not want to sit there but now since he is being rejected by everyone he then wants to go sit with him.

Justin
I expect to learn his point of view of August and all about him. R.J. Palacio probably made a part for Justin because he's someone Via cares about and he's important to her.

2/5/14 I was puzzled by that question. I think the author wrote Justin's part with lowercase letters because the he's ponderous and he's just a teenager so I'm pretty sure he does not think about it nor bother.

Justin is a important character because everyone likes him and he's a comforting person to be around. Also, he's Via's boyfriend. = =

Miranda
2/10/14

Now that I read her part I have a view of her in her eyes and not in Via's. Via gave a different prospective of Miranda,s o read I read hers I thought she was a nice and caring person that just needs a little guidance. Miranda feels safer at Via's house because her family is distant and she does not feel as protected as Via's family protects each other.Yes, I think Miranda and Via will be friends again because Via insisted that Miranda was to have dinner with her and she put her arm around her.
