Notice: How he is different is not told.

Wonder:

Why does he deserve a list of his own?
What sort of list could it be?
What does it say about him?

]]> 2021-06-11 02:49:58 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600169191 "and everyone knew it." (Ch 1) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600171633 Observe: Everyone in school knows him, and knows something about him.

Notice: Readers are not told what it is that makes Nick so special.

Wonder:

Why do they seem to all agree on what Nick is like?
What does it suggest about Nick and the community?
Are there things in my school community that everyone can agree on?

]]> 2021-06-11 02:51:20 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600171633 A community where students know each other moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600173259 2021-06-11 02:52:14 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600173259 "But that didn't stop Nick from trying to liven things up. ... needed a good jolt once in a while" (Ch 1) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600215527 Observe: the words "liven" and "needed" are used to describe the impact of Nick's actions.

Notice: Nick seems to see his actions as
positive.

Wonder:

What do these suggest about the school?
What does this suggest about Nick? Relate this to what has been said about Nick and to Nick's actions.

]]> 2021-06-11 03:16:36 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600215527 "Nick made the great blackbird discovery. One night he learned on a TV show... The next day during silent reading, Nick glanced at his teacher, and he noticed that Mrs. Avery's nose was curved--kind of like the beak of a hawk. So Nick let out a high, squeaky blackbird. 'peep!'" (Ch 1) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600228883 Observe: Nick applied what he learnt on TV in class.

Notice:

Nick drew a connection between TV and his real life.

Wonder:
What do the things Nick notices and how he responds tell us abut Nick?

]]> 2021-06-11 03:24:10 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600228883 "The whole thing was just one long--and successful--science experiment." (Ch 1) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600237260 Observe: He manages to influence Janet to join him in this "science experiment"

Notice: There is a also a comparison made between what happens in class with science experiments. (Nick's actions were considered an "experiment").

Wonder:

How does Nick see the world around him?
How does Nick manage to influence his classmates?

]]> 2021-06-11 03:29:08 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600237260 "Hey Janet--I'm sorry you got yelled at during reading. It was my fault." (Ch 1) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600242521 Observe: Nick is apologetic for getting Janet in trouble. He is taking responsibility by saying "it was [his] fault".

Notice: It is the first time he seems apologetic for something. He is not sorry about annoying Mrs Avery.

Wonder:

Why does he apologise to Janet when he is causing annoyance to Mrs Avery (and not Janet)?
Why does he not apologise to Mrs Avery?
What does his apology to Janet tell us about him?

]]> 2021-06-11 03:32:11 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600242521 Nick seems to care about his friends more than he cares about his teachers. moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600250548 2021-06-11 03:36:56 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600250548 Nick has creative ideas because he draws links between different aspects of his life, and he does not let himself be bound by school rules. moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600251348 2021-06-11 03:37:24 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600251348 Nick has some form of influence in school moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600254925 2021-06-11 03:39:27 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600254925 Even though Nick does not seem to care about pleasing his teachers, he seems to want to remain in the good books of teachers, to maintain a certain reputation in school moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600256841 2021-06-11 03:40:31 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600256841 "Nick had no particular use for the dictionary. He liked words a lot, and was good at using them... he read all the time." (Ch 2) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600257874 Observe: Nick likes language and reading but he does not enjoy using the dictionary.

Notice: Nick delays Mrs Granger in her class not because he does not like the subject. He delays the class for some other reason.

Wonder: How are Nick and Mrs. Granger different in their opinion on how to learn language?]]> 2021-06-11 03:41:12 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600257874 "Nick was an expert at asking the delaying question--also known as the teacher-stopper, or the guaranteed timewaster"(Chapter 3) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600263002 Observe: There are a few names for Nick's strategy--"teacher-stopper" and "guaranteed timewaster".

Notice: Nick is seen as the "expert" at this which suggests that this is something he which he is known for.

Wonder:

What is it about Nick's questions that teachers will be tricked?
What is Nick's reputation in school?
What does Mrs. Granger's response to Nick's actions tell us about her?

]]> 2021-06-11 03:44:25 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600263002 "This was not the way school was supposed to work. Not for Nick." vs James "I already knew how to put first things first."(Ch 4) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600278740 Observe:
There is a comparison between Nick and his brother.

Notice:

Nick and his brother see school and their priorities very differently.
Nick does not seem to be used to doing homework for long hours.

Wonder:

How is school supposed to work for Nick?
How does Nick see school?
How is he different from his brother, James?

]]> 2021-06-11 03:55:31 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600278740 "giving this report could actually be fun. He could make it into something special." (Ch 4) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600282635 Observe: Nick is trying to spice things up in school again. He has an idea.

Notice: Nick seems to always be able to find a way to make things "fun" and work his way.

Wonder:

What do you think he planned?
What motivates Nick?
What kinds of qualities does Nick need to have in order to pull this off?

]]> 2021-06-11 03:58:26 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600282635 "That's so cute!"... "It's so colorful?"... "Miss Deaver was surprised again at justhow creative her students could be." (Ch 1) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600560832 Observe: Italicised words and the use of exclamation mark and question mark. They
seem to be praises.

Notice:

The italics is applied to adjectives.
The question mark seems to change the tone of Miss Deaver.

Wonder:

(Craft) Why the use of italics? What is being shown there?
(Craft) Why the different use of punctuation marks?
(Craft) Does this tell me something about the teacher's response?
What would have happened if this took place in my classroom? (Isn't using a screwdriver to turn up the thermostat an offence?)
How would my teacher respond?
Would s/he be like Miss. Deaver?
Why do we not have ideas like Nick's?

]]> 2021-06-11 07:20:20 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600560832 "Miss Deaver was teaching the hula to some kids near the front of the room, and a tall, thin, shirtless boy with chestnut hair was just spiking a Nerf volleyball over a net made from six T-shirts tied together." (Ch 1) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600577783 Observe: The class seems to be having a lot of fun. They are behaving like they are at the beach. Miss Deaver is teaching something, but some students are engaged in their own activities.
Notice: In a classroom?!
Wonder:

What would the principal think?
What led up to this event?
What would have happened if this took place in my classroom?
How would my teacher respond?
Would s/he be like Miss. Deaver?

]]> 2021-06-11 07:33:30 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600577783 '"But someone is asking for big trouble," said Mrs Avery, looking more like a hawk every second.' (Ch 1, p.4) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600579069 Observe:
Mrs Avery is warning the class. She is compared to a hawk.

Notice:

She is quite stern, and wants to maintain discipline in class.
She looks like a hawk, and her name sounds like "aviary". Nick was also trying to mimic a bird sound.

Wonder:

Why are there so many references to birds?
If I were Nick, would I be afraid of this warning?
Why did she at first think it was Janet? Is Janet a troublemaker too?

]]> 2021-06-11 07:34:35 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600579069 "every morning, rain or shine, snow or sleet, hail or wind. She had a perfect attendance record that stretched back farther than anyone could remember"... "it didn't matter to Mrs Granger if you weren't in fifth grade, because the way she saw it, sooner or later, you would be. All the kids at LES knew that at the end of the line--fifth grade--Mrs.Granger would be the one grading their spelling tests and their reading tests... week after week, month after month." "sooner or later Mrs Granger would find out" (Ch 2) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600581986 Observe: There are many mentions of time in the description of Mrs Granger (e.g. "every morning", "sooner or later", "week after week, month after month").
Notice: Mrs Granger seems very consistent in her behaviour in school. She seems to be timeless/unchanging. Nothing seems to be able to stop her.
Wonder:

How would you feel if you had her as a teacher?

]]> 2021-06-11 07:36:48 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600581986 "Without question this modern.... had a hand in its making." (Ch 5) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600587469 Observe: There is a long passage with many difficult words, written in a way that is different from the rest of the book. This is an extremely long sentence.
Notice: This is an excerpt from the dictionary. The content in this specific extract seems to be similar to what Mrs Granger says about why dog means dog later in the chapter--that people are the ones who decide the meaning of words.
Wonder:

How do you feel about reading this extract? How much of it did you understand?
How do you think Nick felt, reading this sentence?
Why does he compare it to reading "the ingredients on a shampoo bottle"?
What impression does it give us about dictionaries and Mrs. Granger?

]]> 2021-06-11 07:41:35 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600587469 "It was a long article, and the kids were bored to death. But no one looked bored at all." (Ch 5) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600591545 Observe: Nick's classmates were hiding their boredom as Nick was reading his report.
Notice: Nick's classmates are cooperating with Nick and allowing Nick to waste time in Mrs Granger's class.
Wonder:

What motivates them to cooperate with Nick?
If another classmate does the same thing, would the classmates be as cooperative?

]]> 2021-06-11 07:45:17 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600591545 "the kind of book it takes two kids to carry" "sort of like the altar at the front of a church" (Ch 2) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600622757 Observe:
The dictionary must be really big and heavy.
Notice:

It seems bigger than the children.
The classroom is compared to a church.

Wonder:

What does this make Mrs Granger? What does this make the dictionary?
How do you use your dictionary? Does your dictionary make you feel the same?

]]> 2021-06-11 08:12:09 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600622757 Nick and Mrs Granger have different views on the dictionary though they both appreciate language moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600624513 2021-06-11 08:13:41 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600624513 "And probably a little black mark next to his name on the seating chart." (Ch 3) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600626649 Observe: Nick guesses that Mrs. Granger has added him to her blacklist.
Notice: This sentence comes after a series of things that Nick does not look forward to.
Wonder:

What does this tell us about Nick's concerns?
How does this enrich our understanding of Nick as a character?
How is Mrs Granger a teacher that's unlike other teachers Nick has had?

]]> 2021-06-11 08:15:29 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600626649 Relationship between Nick and Mrs Granger moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600633182 2021-06-11 08:20:57 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600633182 "Several kids smiled, and a few peeked at the clock." (Ch 3) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600634242 Observe: A number of students in class are happy about how much time is wasted.

Notice: Only "several kids smiled".

Wonder:

What about the other kids who are not smiling? Do they enjoy Nick's time-wasters?
Where do you think the rest of the class are in the tussle between Nick and Mrs. Granger?

]]> 2021-06-11 08:21:55 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600634242 "For Mrs. Granger. ... Thanks to Mrs. Granger ...because Mrs. Granger... For Mrs. Granger" (Ch 4) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600643840 Observe: Mrs Granger's name is repeated many times.
Wonder: What do these quotes tell us about Nick's feelings toward Mrs. Granger?]]> 2021-06-11 08:30:30 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600643840 "After all, Mrs Granger had asked for it." (Ch 4) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600644816 Notice: Nick seems to think that his action is
justified.
Wonder:
Through this Chapter, what kind of a student
do we think Nick is?]]> 2021-06-11 08:31:27 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600644816 "The third-grade trip to the South Seas ended. Suddenly." (Ch 1) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600646222 Observe: There is a short sentence that stands out from the rest of the passage.
Notice: How and why it ended is not explained
Wonder:

What does this tell me about what happened to the class?
How did the episode end?
Why is this not phrased as one sentence "The third-grade trip to the South Seas ended suddenly"?

]]> 2021-06-11 08:32:42 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600646222 The school does not seem to give students the freedom that they want moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600648255 2021-06-11 08:34:13 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600648255 Mrs Avery vs Miss Deaver vs Mrs Granger moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600649010 Notice: The 3 teachers have very different expectations of students in class.

Miss Deaver seems to appreciate students having fun.
Mrs Avery wants to discipline the students (by warning them not to make the high-pitched sound), but doesn't have the strategy to find out who was behind the sound.
Mrs Granger seems to be effective in maintaining discipline in class and has the ability to see through and spoil students' plans.

Wonder:

Is the school generally strict with students, but is Miss Deaver an exception, as she is an untrained teacher?
Is Mrs Granger respected by teachers and the principal for her ability to maintain discipline or do they see her as being excessive?

]]> 2021-06-11 08:34:53 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600649010 "[Mrs Granger] had two skirt-and jacket outfits, her gray uniform and her blue uniform, which she always wore over a white shirt" (Ch 2) moe_cpdd_gebel5 https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600653877 Observe: Mrs Granger dresses formally to school every day and has
only two outfits.
Notice: Mrs Granger is the only one described to wear a uniform in the book.
Wonder:

Do students need to wear school uniform? (doesn't seem like based on the pictures)
Why does Mrs Granger expect herself to wear a uniform? (so different from our school!)

]]> 2021-06-11 08:39:10 UTC https://padlet.com/moegebr/frindleONW/wish/1600653877
