I learned that people like to have reptile pets or strange pets.  I thought people were only interested in having a cat, dog, fish, hamster, and that kind of pets. I also learned that you need to have a permit to have skunks  so Averso got his permit and he is one of the only pet stores that has skunks so he gets lots of money because people are willing to pay the amount of money the skunks are because that's one of the only stores that have them. Averso sell most of his cool reptiles for lots of money.  Like in the text it say " It's about the size of a gray black squirrel with black and white stripes, priced  at 2,500"  That is a lot of money but i bet people buy it for that price. I loved reading this passage it was a lot of fun. I am glad I choose to read that one.  ]]> 2017-03-07 14:56:05 UTC https://padlet.com/tcraig/newsela1/wish/158356582 Maria mariaretelewski2025 https://padlet.com/tcraig/newsela1/wish/158360176 the main idea of ]]> 2017-03-07 15:03:44 UTC https://padlet.com/tcraig/newsela1/wish/158360176 Caleb: chimps cause "code red" at zoo calebspector2025 https://padlet.com/tcraig/newsela1/wish/158360986 Main Idea: chimps escape from the zoo and cause a code red.
The article is problem and solution. The problem is that the chimps escaped from the zoo. The solution is that they used the chimps food to lure them back. The chimps are very smart so that is how they found a way that the could escape from the zoo. The person who runs the zoo thinks that the chimps might have broke a branch and put it so they could climb out of their cage. Or they could have done that with a long branch. When the chimps were out the people didn't get hurt but they could have because chimps are very strong and can be heavy the largest one that got out was 150 pounds. Luckily no of the people got hurt.]]> 2017-03-07 15:05:17 UTC https://padlet.com/tcraig/newsela1/wish/158360986 Rumi + Julia juliahoward2025 https://padlet.com/tcraig/newsela1/wish/158361232 The main idea of "Chimps  cause "Code Red" at zoo" is that chimps CAN figure out a way to ecscape the ZOO!!!!

The main idea in this article is about a man named Joe Averso who is selling really cool and weird animals for a bunch of money that you can't get at petco  or Petsmart. This article's structure is COMPARE AND CONTRAST. I think this because it's comparing dogs, cats, hamsters and more regular and animals compared to the weird and unusual animals that Joe has.]]> 2017-03-07 15:05:55 UTC https://padlet.com/tcraig/newsela1/wish/158361284 Sarah sarahwang2025 https://padlet.com/tcraig/newsela1/wish/158361404 Chimps cause "Code Red" at zoo.
