    How I felt reading today: 
    Did I meet my goal: Yes/No ]]>     2021-02-22 14:11:49 UTC https://padlet.com/kellyrbreen/cslptglvcql40ozc/wish/1226528095     Goal 1- Stay focused for 20 minutes cavaliek1 https://padlet.com/kellyrbreen/cslptglvcql40ozc/wish/1245316067 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. ]]> 2021-02-26 14:24:09 UTC https://padlet.com/kellyrbreen/cslptglvcql40ozc/wish/1245316067 Sept. 21st / Class / 12:30 pm cavaliek1 https://padlet.com/kellyrbreen/cslptglvcql40ozc/wish/1245458030 Minutes: 30

    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.”

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. ]]> 2021-09-22 14:27:13 UTC https://padlet.com/kellyrbreen/cslptglvcql40ozc/wish/1760213127 FORMAT- "Sentence from the story" (BOOK TITLE, p. #) cavaliek1 https://padlet.com/kellyrbreen/cslptglvcql40ozc/wish/1760313119 Denotation:
