When describing a character, remember to: jwenker1 https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759782 • show that you know the character is complicated (for example, tell about more than one trait)
• tell about the character’s motivation(s)

He doesn’t make Harry feel bad for not visiting the store now that he is older. He makes the best of things. But he is really lonely so he gets a bird named Rocky who keeps him company.]]> 2020-11-09 16:01:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759801 Reread the lines below. These lines represent a turning point for Harry. How did Harry change from the beginning to the end of the story and why? jwenker1 https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759806 “I’m here, you stupid bird! I’m here!” Harry yelled. He threw the peppermints at the cage, and the bird screamed and clung to its perch. Harry sobbed, “I’m here.” The tears were coming. Harry leaned over the glass counter. “Papa.” Harry buried his face in his arms.   “Where’s Harry?” repeated the bird. Harry sighed and wiped his face on his sleeve. He watched the parrot. He understood now: someone had been saying, for a long time,“ Where’s Harry? Miss him.”
When discussing character change, remember to:
• describe one or two ways the character changes
• explain what caused the change
• include how different story elements (other characters, setting, key events) contributed to
the change.]]> 2020-11-09 16:01:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759806 jwenker1 https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759808 2020-11-09 16:01:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759808 jwenker1 https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759810 Harry feels sad so he cries.

Miss him” over and over he realizes that his Dad must have asked for him over and over. This makes Harry realize how much his Dad missed him. This is a big change for Harry because at the
beginning he didn’t really think about his dad’s feelings and now he does.]]> 2020-11-09 16:01:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759829 Write about a theme (or life lesson) that this story develops.

• write about how a theme comes through in different parts of the story
• discuss parts from early and late in the story that show this theme
• explain how those parts from across the story support this theme.]]> 2020-11-09 16:01:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759839 jwenker1 https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759841 2020-11-09 16:01:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759841 jwenker1 https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759843 A theme this story develops is that
people should be good to their families. Early in the story, Harry visited his dad’s nut shop a lot, and was good to him. But then Harry stopped visiting. When Harry’s
dad got sick Harry felt bad that he hadn’t visited his dad. This taught him that he should have been good to his dad.]]> 2020-11-09 16:01:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759843 jwenker1 https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759847 A life lesson Harry learns is that he should be good to his father. When Harry’s dad got sick, Harry felt bad that he hadn’t been good to his dad. Harry even yelled at the parrot because he was so mad. He was upset because he knows his dad misses him and he should have visited more.]]> 2020-11-09 16:01:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759847 jwenker1 https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759861 Your dad might die.

He might DIE.]]> 2020-11-09 16:01:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759861 Reread the lines below. How is this part of the story important to the whole story? jwenker1 https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759865  At home things were different. Harry and his father joked with each other at the dinner table as they always had—Mr. Tillian teasing Harry about his smelly socks; Harry teasing Mr. Tillian about his blubbery stomach. At home things seemed all right.

When writing how one part fits with the whole story, remember to:
• name the story element that is highlighted in this part of the story
• explain how this part fits with other parts of the story
• use words like tension, resolution, setting, or other words that show what you know about story elements or narrative craft.]]> 2020-11-09 16:01:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759865 jwenker1 https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759866 2020-11-09 16:01:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759866 jwenker1 https://padlet.com/jwenker1/kgcmof1793gj8itl/wish/904759869 The author included this part because it shows that the problem with Harry and his dad is only at the store.
