1) Question: Write down the names of characters involved, as well as where and when the story is taking place at this point in the text. Next, write down questions you have about the story or characters, and any questions about the reading that you did not understand and would like clarification.
2) Prediction: Write down your prediction for what you think will happen next in the story. Don’t forget to explain what happened in this chapter that helped you form this prediction.
3) Connection: Write down anything that you found familiar: either a situation you have experienced, a character that reminds you of someone, or an event from the story that is similar to something you have already read. *Remember to use good technology ethics! Do not expose names of people anyone could or would know. Use good judgement!
?
4) Summarize: Re-tell, in your own words, the main plot and important details of your reading. Your summary should not be more than about a paragraph, or 5-7 sentences.
5) Reflect: Write down any quotes, sayings, or moments that affect you in some way. So far, what do you think is the reason the author wrote this book? Are there any themes you recognize? Do you like the book so far? Why or why not? What changes could be made so that you understand or connect with the story better
4) The main characters in the story are named George and Lenny. George and Lenny are on their way to California to look for a job. After miles of walking they come to a pond to drink and rest. While they were resting they were talking about their future and how they would get land and have all different types of animals. They also discussed why they had to leave their small town called weeds. The reasons why they left is because Lenny was accused of trying to molest a little girl .
2) I'm predicting that Lenny and George will go to the farm and get the job but they are going to get in a little trouble along the way. I think Lenny is going to do something similar to what he did the last time. I also predict that later in the story, Lenny is going to get into so much trouble not even George could bale him out. Based on chapter one I think Lenny is going to get into trouble because of his mental disability and he doesn't realize right from wrong.
5) When George and Lenny were talking about what life they had in the future that effected me because all they are looking for is happiness and it was hard to get during this time. I think the author wrote this book to inform future generations what they had to go through at this time and so we can look at it through his perspective.I do not recognize the theme because i haven't read that much of the story. yes, I do like the book but since I didn't that much I cant give a honest opinion.
