Awesome Connections

3/23/16

We just got done reading a little bit more about The One And Only Ivan and I learned more about the Ivan characters in this book.

In the book it said: "Helen was quick to laugh, but quick to anger, too, especially when I broke something, which was often." The text-to-world connection I made was when I watch a movie at home and the baby gorilla broke things in the house.

The book later said: "One day Helen came home with something large and flat,wrapped in brown paper." The text-to-self connection I made was when my mom came home with something flat wrapped in brown paper.

This is what Helen had in the brown paper.

This is Ivan when he was a baby in his diaper.
