When you sharpen a pencil it stands for a very smart person. A shape pencil stands for a sharp mind. Usually when someone calls you a sharpened pencil it means you are smart. I am also comparing Albert to a bearded capuchin monkey. Usually animals have to crack nuts to survive because they need food. A capuchin monkey can't break the type of nuts they eat so they use stones. These monkeys are smart thinkers and they need to survive. The monkeys work to gather and break open nuts to survive because they need to eat. Albert is like these monkeys because he uses his intelligence and skills to help him do different things.]]> 2016-12-15 15:26:32 UTC https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143863839 https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143863849 I am comparing Albert to a football player named Josh Norman because Josh Norman it tall and strong and he only fights at one cost: when he is playing against Odell Beckham Jr. 
He only fights Odell Beckham Jr. because they hate each other and ever time they play they always get into a fight and both of them usually get fined a ridiculous amount, and they always make the news for getting into a huge fight. Usually either one of them will get hurt and have to sit out the next game just because the other one started it, but both of them usually find out a way to blame the other person for starting the fight.]]> 2016-12-15 15:26:33 UTC https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143863849 https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143863859 I am comparing Ally to Albert Einstein. Ally is smart like Albert Einstein. She also has dyslexia, so she is different than the crowd. Ally is like Albert Einstein because they both how great minds. Albert Einstein was one of the smartest people in the world, and I think Ally could definitely be smart like Albert Einstein. They both have dyslexia, but Albert Einstein learned to fight with it, and he made a lot of scientific discoveries over the years. If Ally just tries she can really be a great person. She can make great discoveries because she has dyslexia like Albert Einstein, but she is still very creative and smart. She can really be like him when she grows up.]]> 2016-12-15 15:26:34 UTC https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143863859 20232089 https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143863878 I am comparing Ally to my sister. I am comparing Ally to my sister Becca, because like Ally Becca has dyslexia. They both have trouble reading and writing. Also, they both are obsessed with Alice in Wonderland. Also, Ally and Becca are both bullied for who they are. Becca and Ally both struggle with words; reading and writing them. Also, Ally and Becca try to reach out to make friends and make others feel better. Ally was trying to comfort Shay, but that didn't work. Like how Becca tries to make other students feel better with her ostrich ways. ]]> 2016-12-15 15:26:37 UTC https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143863878 https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143863914 I am comparing Ally to a coloring book.  Ally's favorite thing to do is color.  Ally is not able to read or write, but the one thing she can do is draw.  Mr. Daniels always has the class write in their journal, but Ally gets to draw in her journal.  In the beginning of the novel the author talked about how Ally would always draw in her coloring book. Ally would draw scenes from her favorite book Alison Wonderland. She is also very creative so she has great ideas, even though she can't read she is still very creative.]]> 2016-12-15 15:26:44 UTC https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143863914 https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143863931
I am comparing Albert in "Fish In A Tree" to Albert Einstein. Albert is a wise, logical student in the story "Fish in a Tree". Albert Einstein was the wisest person of all time. Both Alberts are very smart. Also, Albert Einstein got into a fight with someone in school. Albert in "Fish in a Tree" got into a fight with some bullies. Finally, Albert is creative just like Albert Einstein. For example, one day Albert was thinking about movement within movement. Not many people would think about that on an average day! Albert wants to figure out great things, just like Albert Einstein. If Albert keeps trying like this, he will be a very smart man.]]> 2016-12-15 15:26:46 UTC https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143863931 https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143864036 I'm comparing Ally to a pack of crayons. When you open a new pack you have 24 different colors. All different in their own way. First you start off with a blank piece of paper. But once you add a crayon there's an explosion of color. Ally is the light, color, and excitement to the drawing. She is strong and can keep going and shining. But once you press too hard she'll snap. She'll break apart and there's no way to put it back. Just like when you bother Ally. When the bullies where being mean to Ally and her friends she got tense. The bullies were pressing too hard, and once they did Ally snapped and broke. She was nervous but made so she spoke up and there was no way to fix it. ]]> 2016-12-15 15:27:04 UTC https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143864036 https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143864082 I am comparing Mrs. Nickerson to me and Ally to Thomas Edison. I think that Mrs. Nickerson is just like me because all of my friends come to me for advice and lots of people think that I give great advice. I am also comparing Ally to Thomas Edison because i feel like Ally is going to create something huge just like the light bulb because she is extremely creative. Also, Thomas Edison is very smart and I think that Ally is going to become the SMARTEST PERSON IN THE WORLD!]]> 2016-12-15 15:27:10 UTC https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143864082 20232044 https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143864187 I comparing Ally to Walt Disney. I am comparing these people because they both have dyslexia, and are both very creative. Walt Disney created a lot of cartoon characters while Ally is really good at art and drawing. Walt Disney also had hard times in school, just like Ally. I think that Ally is very smart, like Walt Disney.

They were also some of the most notable artists to ever live. Leonardo Da Vinci was also extremely smart. He was also a notable inventor like Ally. For example, Ally is able to tell the contents of something while they are in a box. He also wrote his journal upside down and backwards. Ally is probably going to become an artist. If she is confident she might become famous like them]]> 2016-12-15 15:27:31 UTC https://padlet.com/hefflerw1/hs4123tzlt4e/wish/143864227
