We love you, Koala Lou by Brianna Gossett https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett Thoughts from Mrs. Gossett’s class en-us 2017-09-28 18:05:42 UTC 2026-01-06 20:28:50 UTC hello@padlet.com I know this book is fiction because animals are talking. https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193086460 Kayliegh]]> 2017-10-02 16:25:04 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193086460 I also train hard but I know my parents still love me. I don’t care if I win or lose. I love this book! https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193088601 Bailey]]> 2017-10-02 16:28:33 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193088601 Today I learned that koalas have a scent patch that they rub on trees to tell other koalas not to enter their territory! https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193090585 Elena]]> 2017-10-02 16:31:48 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193090585 I thought she was going to win the Olympics, but her mom was still proud of her even when she came in second. I think her mom would still be proud if she lost. bgossettsclass https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193093276 Nathan]]> 2017-10-02 16:36:40 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193093276 How did Koala Lou get her name? I think Mem Fox wanted it to rhyme with “I do love you.” bgossettsclass https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193094969 Sawyer]]> 2017-10-02 16:39:46 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193094969 Her mother loves Koala Lou most of all and the other animals love her too. Mom was busy but she lovess her. bgossettsclass https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193097537 Joseph]]> 2017-10-02 16:44:26 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193097537 There were many Australian animals in Koala Lou like kangaroos, quolls, tree frogs, platypus, and emus. bgossettsclass https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193099929 Liam]]> 2017-10-02 16:49:05 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193099929 There was a kookaburra in the story. Today I learned that this is a bird that lives in Australia and makes a laughing sound. bgossettsclass https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193101658 Carson]]> 2017-10-02 16:52:13 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193101658 I wondered how old Koala Lou was and I think she’s about 12. She’s old enough for the olympics and her brothers and sisters who are younger get more attention. bgossettsclass https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193104206 Aiden]]> 2017-10-02 16:56:51 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193104206 What do koalas eat? Today I learned that they eat eucalyptus leaves. bgossettsclass https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193105644 Landen]]> 2017-10-02 16:59:23 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193105644 I can connect to this book because my mom and dad are really busy with my brother. bgossettsclass https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193514430 Jasmine]]> 2017-10-03 16:10:41 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193514430 Do koalas like water? We learned that baby koalas are called Joeys, just like kangaroos. bgossettsclass https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193515422 Lizzie]]> 2017-10-03 16:12:16 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193515422 Why does the Koala want to be in the olympics? I think she wants her mom to be happy and proud. bgossettsclass https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193516608 Madalyn]]> 2017-10-03 16:14:06 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193516608 It does not matter if you win or lose, moms and dads will still love you. bgossettsclass https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193518694 Timmy]]> 2017-10-03 16:17:28 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193518694 Did you know Koala Lou actually did win? Her mother loved her even when she lost. bgossettsclass https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193519913 Marcus]]> 2017-10-03 16:19:48 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193519913 Today we used eucalyptus lotion so our classroom smelled like koalas! bgossettsclass https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193527164 Benjamin]]> 2017-10-03 16:32:38 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193527164 We read a nonfiction book called Jimmy the Joey and made connections with Koala Lou. Did you know that koalas don’t have fur when they are born? bgossettsclass https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193528738 2017-10-03 16:35:05 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193528738 There were so many Australian animals that loved her. I wonder what other kind of animals are in the book? bgossettsclass https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193530242 Abby]]> 2017-10-03 16:37:40 UTC https://padlet.com/bgossettsclass/GraGossett/wish/193530242
