1/27/16 My feeling at the end of the tour is that Julian has some sort of grudge against Auggie so Julian doesn't like him. Also I think he made two new friends Charlotte and Jack, and I think that they will help and stick up for Auggie. I feel concerned, happy, and proud of Auggie for going on the tour. Auggie should make wise decisions when he goes to school so he would rarely get in trouble.

2/2/16 I felt that Auggie is liking school a lot and making new friends like Summer. I am glad that Auggie has a nice,friendly, and loyal friend such as Jack Will and I think they will become best friends. I also feel like some people are understanding Auggie's appearance. Finally Auggie loves Mr. Browns Precepts like when given the choice between being right or being kind choose kind. So I think Auggie will have a great school year.

2/3/16 I felt so bad for Auggie he doesn't deserve to be treated like an alien, Auggie is a person to. I think Auggie should give school one more try and if he doesn't like it he should not have to go back to school. I also think he should stop hanging out with Jack Will. Auggie should go back to school because he needs a better education than he gets from being home-schooled and Summer is his friend and I don't think he would want to leave her.

2/4/16 I hope to find out many good things about Via in the next part. I have three question about Via. Does Via have any close friends like Auggie and Christopher? Did Via ever stick up for Auggie? Does Via like her new school?. I can't wait to learn more about Auggie and see if the book can answer my questions.

2/9/16 I learned many things about Via in this part. I learned that Via loves her Grandmother so much and is devastated that she passed on. Via's grandma said Via was her favorite and that surprised me because grandmothers are supposed to love their grandchildren equally. I also learned that Via is going through tough times with her friendship and trying to help with Auggies too.

2/9/16 Via's part is different from Auggies because in Auggies part he wasn't going to tell anyone about what happened at school but when Via came in to talk to him he told her what had happened. Also in Auggie's part he didn't go trick or treating or go to the Halloween parade at all but in Via's part he went to the Halloween parade which surprised me because I wouldn't think he would go at all.

2/16/16 Justin's part was so important because he was Via's boyfriend and he wants to defend Auggie. We needed to understand Justin's perspective because he is now Via's boyfriend and he will have to live with and understand Auggie. He is also a new person and R.J Palacio wanted us to know the perspective of a person that is new to Auggie and didn't know him. As the book described even though Via told him about Auggie Justin was still surprised by Auggie's appearance.

2/18/16 Miranda feels very,very,very happy because she had always loved Auggie and his family as her own. Miranda never felt quite the same after she went to camp. After camp she had changed and stopped being friends with Via and she was gossiping about her behind Via's back. But when Miranda saw Auggie and when their family asked Miranda over for dinner she remembered how kind and caring Auggie's parents were.


 * Characterization**


 * Protagonist-** Main character, usually the good guy. - It would be Auggie
 * Antagonist-** Bad Guy. It would be Julian
 * Static-** Character who does not change in the novel. It would be Julian, Summer, Charlotte, and Mr. Brown.
 * Dynamic-** A character who changes during the novel. It would be Amos, Miranda, Jack, Via, Maya, and Auggie.
 * Direct Characterization-** When the author says the exact words that explain the character.
 * Indirect Characterization-**When the author uses actions and words to explain what the character looks like.


 * Nothing but the Truth**


 * 1:** I think parents should only believe their children when they are telling the truth and if the parents believed what their children said and the child was lying they should be punished.I think the parents should give their child emotional support because they could feel really bad about what they did and need help to earn their trust back after they did something bad. There is a point when the parents need to let their children be punished by society because the child needs to know what would happen if they did it when they got older and their parents won't be around to get them in trouble.


 * 1: ** You should obey the rule and then ask a teacher to help it make sense to you. I would only break a rule if someone was in danger.
