JUDYMOODYSAVESTHEWORLD4

I am reading Judy Moody saves the world by Megan McDonald. Before I read I have a prediction. I predict that Judy will write to the Crazy strips company and ask why they picked her little brother instead of her and if they want to save the world by influencing kids to take care of our earth by making her HEAL THE WORLD bandage a Crazy strip.

My prediction was wrong. She didn't write to the Crazy strips CO. While I was reading I had a few questions. My first was, How many bottles did they collect? The book said they collected 1,961 bottles and so they get to plant 98 trees in the children's rain forest in Costa Rica plus two dollars that Judy's dad donated equals 100 trees! :-)

At the end of the book Judy got the giraffe award for people who stick their neck out to help the world. Now she doesn't care that she doesn't have her own Crazy strip because she got an award that your not supposed to get unless your in fifth grade. At first she thought there was no way to help the world but now she knows if you try a little you can help alot.

JUDYMOODYSAVESTHEWORLD3

I am reading Judy Moody By Megan McDonald. Before I read I have a prediction. I predict that Judy will find a northeast beach tiger beetle for her project.

My prediction was wrong. She gave up searching for it. While I was reading I had a few questions. My first question was, Why would they let their mascot toady go? I inferred that they did that because their teacher Mr. Todd said that if you catch an animal in the wild then you should put it back. It said the same thing in the book after I inferred that. My second question was, What are lentils? I inferred that they were little beans like Lima beans.

JudyMoodySAVESTHEWORLD2

I am reading Judy Moody saves the world By Megan McDonald. Before I read I have a prediction. I predict that Judy will start trying to make compost out of everything, because she wants to save the earth.

My prediction was partially right. Judy is trying to recycle everything she can while making compost. While I was reading I had a question. My first question was, What is a shiny pigtoe? It's a shell that looks like a striped Hershey kiss and is shaped like a pigs toe. I had a connection about, The T.P. club meets in a tent in someones backyard and in another book called friends-4-ever they did the same thing when the friends-4-ever club met.

JudyMoodySAVESTHEWORLD1

I am reading Judy Moody saves the world by: Megan McDonald. Before I read I have a prediction. I predict that Judy will be healing the world and recycling. I think this because, on the cover she is holding a sign in the picture and is wearing boxers that say RECYCLE all over them.

My prediction was right! She is healing the world by recycling and making food into compost. While I was reading I had a few questions. My first question was, Didn't Judy used to have troll eyes not anaconda eyes? Then I inferred that maybe the author wanted to change it up a bit. My second question was, What does fink mean? The question was kind of hard so I decided to ask my dad. He said that it meant someone who is sneaky and can't be trusted. Then I had a connection. In the book there is a contest on who can make the coolest crazy strip ( type of band aid ). The winner gets roller blades. My school is entering a contest for google. Who can make the coolest google logo. The prize is a college scholar ship and $2000 for the school.

JudyMoody3

I am reading Judy Moody by Megan McDonald. Before I read I have a prediction. I predict Judy will get grounded for scaring her little brother.

My prediction was wrong. I don't think her parents saw what happened because otherwise she probably would be grounded. While I was reading I had a few questions. My first question was, Why would Judy's dad say to put her collage in a garbage bag? Then the book answered it and her dad said it was so it didn't get wet and ruined. My second question was, Why did Frank have to have everything on his collage? Then I inferred that maybe he thought he had to have everything on it to have full credit.

When Judy woke up the day of her presentation it was pouring rain. When she went down stairs her dad said that she could bring her collage to school in a garbage bag so it would not get wet. Judy didn't want to so her dad brought it to school for her. When her dad got there she discovered stink spilled juice on it right in the middle! Then her dad said he would make it up to her and she fixed it by outlining it and making it Virginia and made it WHERE I LIVE. After her presentation her parents took her to get ice cream and Frank and Rocky got to come along. Earlier Frank had said he only needed clubs for his collage so he ended up getting into the T.P. club.

Judy Moody2

I am reading Judy Moody by: Megan McDonald. Before I read I have a prediction. I predict that Frank Pearl whom Judy calls, " Frank eats paste Pearl, " will want to join the T.P. club because he'll think it's cool and he wants to do everything Judy does because he likes Judy.

My prediction was wrong! While I was reading I had a few questions. My first question was, What does she mean by animal breath names? Then I inferred that maybe she meant kids calling people names like Gorilla breath or Bug breath. My second question was, Why did Frank Pearl lie to Judy when he likes her? That's when I predicted that he did that so she would come to his party instead of her not coming because she was the only girl. Also I discovered that Frank only tasted paste once for a dare so he DOESN'T eat it !

Judy's dad found out about Frank's party invitation to Judy and made her go to the party. Judy thought she wouldn't like it when she got there because she was the only girl but at the end when all the boys had left Frank showed Judy his hundreds of collections and saw that he was actually pretty cool. Also she got some cool rocks as party favors because Frank's mom miscalculated and ran out of baby Slinky's.

I am reading Judy Moody by: Megan McDonald illustrated by: Peter H. Reynolds. Before I read I have a prediction. I predict that the T in T.P. club stands for toad because Judy likes toads and the chapter is called the T.P. club and they are hunting for toads.

My prediction was right! T.P. stands for toad pee because both Judy and Rocky her best friend got peed on by a toad so they made a club that only they are in. They call it the T.P. club so that people wouldn't know the name of the club and they would think it stood for toilet paper.
While I was reading I had a few questions. My first one was, why did the toad pee on her? Then I predicted that maybe it was defending itself from Judy by peeing on her like it's saying, "Put me down!" My second question was, why did Stink want to be in the T.P. club so bad? Then I inferred that he wanted to be in the club with his sister, because he thought it was a cool club. Judy and Rocky didn't know what to do so they started hunting for toads. Then when they found one, they both picked it up and it peed on them, so they made up a club that only them and Stink were in. Nobody else would know about the club.
