1/7/15- I think Auggie is making a big deal because it is just a birthday party. Nothing bad will happen if your not invited. At the same time it is kind of sad if you don't get invited to a pretty big party like if everyone in the grade gets invited except you that would be very sad. I never been hurt because I have been invited to the party's i want to got to. I never hurt someone about an invitation because I invited everyone I wanted to and no one ever talks about it. Tell me a bit more about Auggie's possible perception.

1/9/15

I think mom is more scared than Auggie at this point is because Auggie has never been by himself away from his mom. She is also scared is because she always had an eye on or always been with Auggie and now he went by himself. Mom is very scared because if anything would happen to Auggie she was there for him but no she isn't.

1/12/15 At the end of this chapter I think Charlotte was really nice to August and she thinks he is a normal person. Jullian was really mean and he kept asking hurtful questions. Jack was really nice and he told August about everything and wasn't mean at all and when Auggie smiled he smiled back. This made me feel very happy and mad mad about Jullian but happy about Charlotte and Jack. I bet Auggie felt very mad but at the end I he was at least a little happy. I think the tour was a good idea because he knows where everything is on his first day of school and he would know a little how some people behave. Explain to me how this all made you feel. How did Auggie feel? Was the tour a good idea? 1/12/15 In the chapter home August surprised me by telling her mom about all the incidents that happened like Jack being nice and mostly Julian being mean. That most surprises me is that all what happened at the tour with Jullian and he still wants to got to that school even when his mom said you don't have to go. Be more specific here. I think Auggie would still go because he saw some nice people there to. What do you mean by "everything"? Why do YOU think Auggie still wants to go

1/16/15 Jack Will surprised me I thought he liked Auggie. It looked like on the outside he was nice but in the inside he is as mean as Jullian. Who would make a fake friendship and try to tell another person that Auggie was annoying and everything. I don't like Jack because he had to be friends with Auggie and he basically said that Auggie was annoying and following him around everywhere. Now I really don't like Jack Will any more.

1/16/15 I don't think much could change Auggie's mind, if August goes back to school. That would be very surprising for me because he heard all of that bad talk about himself from Jack Will and if he went back that would be very odd. If I was Auggie I would never go back to Beacher prep. if I heard what Auggie heard why would I go back I would just think of that school as the meanest school there is. If I ever went back I wouldn't go near Jack Will and Jullian. I really think he should tell his mom or dad because if he doesn't he will have to go or his mom and dad will ask him how was school and he just might have to tell them what happened to him and what happened with jack. I really think his should tell his mom or dad.

1/16/15 From reading part one from the novel wonder I learned how Auggie how he kind of looks. I learned about his parents and his guardian sister Via but only a little bit about his parents. I learned that he has never been to school and fifth grade is his first year of going into it. I learned that at Beacher Prep. some kids are mean like Jullian but more are nice like Summer and I learned that Summer is one of the only people that thinks that Auggie is ordinary. One last thing I learned is that Auggie is different and he know he is different but he mostly thinks that he is ordinary. I would like to twitter this as what I learned about part one like the thing I want to Twitter about most is that August thinks he is ordinary.

1/26/15 When Via said the Galaxy is changing and the planets are falling out of alignment I think she means that she is barely getting any attention and Auggie is getting more. Maybe it means that she is feeling about Auggie in another way. She thinks she needs more attention like she needs more help. I think she need she help with all of her homework and projects.

1/26/15 She means with the blanket that she was everything to her but no one knew about it and she just kept it as as secret. The blanket is like she is covering up a secret. For example if I was covering as secret it would be like you are covering your self with a blanket. That is what the blanket means.

2/2/15 Summer left the party because Victoria was talking about Auggie in a bad way and she said that Julian likes her. She also left because they were calling Auggie zombie boy and saying it was her boy friend. If I was her I would of left because if someone talks bad about my friends I can't take it. Basically Victoria and everyone else was just bullying her. Victoria is talking bad about Auggie and she is bullying Summer and that is two things I would never like and If someone does that to me I would leave just as summer did.

2/9/15 By reading all the texts, emails,and letters I think Melissa Albans worries to much about her son, Julian. I think she is getting into Auggie's business. She accepted the two day suspension but when started talking about Auggie and she went a little to far there. I learned that much about Melissa Albans. Reading all the texts, letters, and emails I learned some new things about Mr. Tushman. Giving Jack a two day suspension and that is it for punching someone in the face. At the same time Jack is a very good kid so a two day suspension is good. When Melissa told some stuff about Auggie like he was a kid with special needs he stood up for August and told her that Auggie doesn't have special needs or anything he is just a normal kid like anybody else. How Melissa said stuff about Auggie in a bad manner Mr. Tushman reversed the conversation in a professional manner that would counter attack Melissa. I learned all of that from the chapter texts, emails, Facebook, and letters.

2/9/15 In the chapter texts, emails, Facebook, and letters we learned that August forgave Jack after what happend with Julian and the whole punching indecent. If I was August I would have forgiven Jack because if someone said something bad about me and my friend stood up for me I would forgive them. I would also forgive him because he stood up for me and payed the price and he knew why I wasn't his friend from Halloween. I think I would have forgiven Jack Will because he did some big things for me.

2/9/15 The war has begun. The sides have been decided. If I was a character in this book I would have picked Jack's side because Jack Will punched Julian in the face for a reason. That reason is Julian said Freak to Auggie and Jack Will couldn't take it any longer. I think being on Jack's side is better because Julian is a total weirdo I bet he lied to everyone or over exaggerated what had happend when Jack Will punched Julian in the face.

2/19/15 The notes should not be told to Mr. Tushman. I think that because if the notes are told Auggie will get in trouble an he might not go to school anymore. The notes also shouldn't be told because miles and his friends are basically bullying Jack. Ms. Albans could punish Julian and Miles. If they do tell Mr. Tushman all the notes Julian sent were all rude and all the notes Jack sent were all like pranks or revenge or just some silly jokes. If they tell Mr. Tushman Julian will get in more trouble than Jack because Jack is being kind of funny and Julian isn't.

2/23/15 From reading the book wonder I've learned that family is very important in this book. For example when Auggie heard those things about him on Halloween at school he went home and told his sister and that shows that their family has very good trust in each other. Another example is when they went to school for the first time in the summer and when Auggie went with Julian, Charlotte, and Jack took him for the tour his mom had hope and trust that he would be okay and nothing bad would happen to him like insults. Another thing I noticed by reading this book is Miranda is like family to Auggie and Auggie is family to Miranda that shows that they know each other so much and Miranda has known Auggie since he was a baby. While reading this book family was important.
