Hey year 5’s this is my Sentence, Phrase, Word thinking routine for my home reading. My book is A Home For Grace. Hope you enjoy! 🙂
SENTENCE: Grace struggled to speak, her words caught in her tears.
I chose this sentence in the story because it was probably the most happiest and most emotional part of the story that Grace has ever had in her tough and miserable life. After having to leave her best and only friend Hannah, and for her to find her is a bunch of joy for her.
PHRASE: A girl like me in a time gone by.
That phrase was actually at the very last page of my book and I thought it would be a good phrase because the author (Sofie Laguna) had basically written a book about herself and her childhood. I liked the phrase in the end and that’s why I chose it.
WORD: Glory.
I chose the word Glory because Grace is a lover of horses and has always wanted a horse back in her home country, London. And when she was chosen as a servant her masters Beth and Tom had had a horse named Glory and was very special to Grace. That’s why I chose the word Glory.
Grace
Thank you for reading 😉
Hi everyone, the book I will be doing the thinking routine on “Do you love dogs?” a non-fiction book about dogs!
SENTENCE: “This is a tongue flick and it also shows a dog is uncomfortable.” BECAUSE: Whenever I saw a dog flick it’s nose with its tongue I always thought that it was that the dog liked you or was very comfortable. I chose this sentence because I hadn’t even known that before and it was a very interesting fact for me to learn about dogs!
PHRASE: “A mysterious past.” This phrase engaged me BECAUSE: I hadn’t really known about the dogs past. I just thought they were original but they have lots and lots of wolf ancestors because dogs and wolfs were different and similar in ways. The dogs still had to adapt to the way the wolfs lived.
WORD: “began.” This word became powerful to me BECAUSE: This book is telling me how the dogs in the world began and what are some of the latest facts. So “began,” stuck in my head whenever I was reading this book. Now that I know this knowledge I can take it with me anywhere I want because now I know how dogs began!
Thanks for reading!
Hi Guys,
My book is called “The fault in our stars”
SENTENCE: My sentence that I chose was “Hazel Grace, could I, with my meager intellectual capacities, make up a letter from Peter Van Houten featuring phrases like ‘our triumphantly digitized contemporaneity?’ I chose this because it had amazing different words that I have not seen before that have powerful meanings and I also chose this because this is the half key of where the story takes place.
PHRASE: My phrase is “I do Augustus.” I chose this phrase because at the end of the story Hazel has been given a letter by Peter Van Houten, It was a letter about Hazel that Augustus wrote for her. At the end of the letter it says ‘I love you’ and Hazel says ‘I do Augustus’ and that made me cry and it was the first time i have cried to a book or even a movie (because I watched the movie after I read the book)
WORD: My word I chose was “Hazel” I chose this because Hazel was the main character of the story and that name meant a lot to the story. I also think that name is beautiful and I find it quite unique.
