Dogboy Review by Amelia J
Dogboy by Christopher Russell,
Dogboy is about an orphan boy who lives with Sir Edmund's Dogs in medieval times. He is betrayed by Sir Edmund's huntsmen when they go to war, but becomes the huntsman himself later on.
This book was really good! It is exciting and really suspenseful. I love how there is no explicit "bad guy" Although the cover is weird, this book is awesome.

This week in science we have looked at several aspects of gravity. Reading about Sir Isaac Newton and his theories and watching a video about how gravity shaped the universe. We will continue to delve into gravity and how it's force effects us on Earth. Next week we will be look into the seasons and how the moons phases look to us.
In Reading we are finishing up with The Giver by Lois Lowry. Students are writing about theme or other main ideas from the book and are practicing, paraphrasing, citing and taking notes.

Chicken Hare and Abe must escape from Klaus and his staff and also help a mysterious goat which Chicken Hare is seeing.In the beginning, it is not apparent where Chicken Hare and Abe come from. Also, the story plot does not describe much.
