Did I meet my goal:

# data[].attributes.body
I was able to stay focused for 20 minutes during our last reading unit and now want to work on staying focused for 25 minutes. This will help my reading stamina. I will accomplish this by putting my Chromebook away and reading in a quiet spot so I can stay focused.

“Windows so small you’d think they are holding their breath” (Mango Street, p. 4)

“Windows so small you’d think they are holding their breath” (Mango Street, p. 4)

# data[].attributes.body
These piece of figurative language is personification because the author is giving human qualities (holding their breath) to an object (windows). It is effective because it helps the reader understand just how small the windows are by using something everyone can relate to. We all know what it looks like when someone is holding their breath or sucking in to look smaller. We can relate this to the windows and better visualize the windows.

“As if she were a fancy chandelier” (Mango Street, p. 11)

“As if she were a fancy chandelier” (Mango Street, p. 11)

# data[].attributes.body
Denotation- a decorative hanging light with branches for several light bulbs or candles.

Connotation- valuable, elegant, delicate, expensive, desirable

Using the word chandelier adds a positive and sophisticated mood to this section of the story.  The author used the phrase fancy chandelier so we can learn how Esperanza's great-grandfather views her great-grandmother. We learn that he loved her and really wanted to marry her. He values her and sees her as a delicate, elegant, desirable woman. The message would have been significantly different if the author said, “As if she were a sack of potatoes.”

How I felt reading today:
Did I meet my goal: Yes/No

# data[].attributes.body
Using my reading data, I noticed that I can get distracted easily and my mind wanders. When this happens, I avoid reading by taking a break and going to the bathroom. I then waste time and only read a few pages. When I get back from my break, I have to reread those same pages and end up not making progress in my story. Therefore, my goal is to stay focused for 20 minutes during silent reading before needing a break.
