The blog link posted above is a blog about the reading skills in the book The Hunger Games. The reading skills required me to talk about predictions I made, ask questions, make text to world connections, make text to self connections, and make text to text connections. The blog I made for reading skills has all of these requirements. The prediction I made was that I predicted that Katniss or Peeta would win the Hunger Games and my prediction was mostly correct because both of them won. The questions I asked  in the blog post were answered. Katniss and Peeta, as a team, and Cato were the last tributes to fight to the death. My other question that was answered was  "I wonder if Peeta and Katniss will actually watch out for each other?" This answer would be yes because Peeta was near death and Katniss saved his life by winning him medicine. Peeta was there for Katniss when Katniss got a cut on her head and Peeta helped heal the wound. In my reading skills blog post I also added connections to the story that were also required. The link posted above is a great explanation of the reading skills for the book The Hunger Games.

Goals I have for next trimester for reading is that I want to be able to read every night instead of reading about once a week. I can fix this by cutting out some tv time and reading instead. Another goal I have for next trimester for reading is to read more then one book a trimester. I can do this by sticking with my goal of reading every night. A goal I have for next trimester for writing is to improve my writing material. I can do this by practicing my writing often. Areas of improvement that I want to work towards next trimester for reading is to learn to read more challenging books. I could do this by picking a book I have never heard of before. Areas of improvement that I want to work towards next trimester for writing is I want to make the quality of my writing more unique by using better vocabulary. I can do this by teaching myself new vocabulary words.
