Reading Response Journal

Title: mei-ling

Author: jane thomson

Today I read about a book called mei-ling and the giant

I feel happy about what I read today because at the end the giant showed her where the ginseng where

My favourite character was giant because he saved mei-ling from the wolves

I would feel surprised if the same thing that happened to my character, happened to me because mei-ling was tied to a tree and there were wolves that  were coming after her

I think if the author decided to write another part to this story this is what will happen mei-ling will get home sick and will want to go home

kowhai tree

today we did a slide about kowhai trees

My math for today

1. 2 friends get 30 bananas each

30+30=60

2❌30=60

2. 6 friends get 10 each

10+10+10+10+10+10=60

6❌10=60
