The Recruit
This week I have been reading The Recruit by Robert Muchamore. I am up to page 181 which is in Chapter 23. So far the book is about and kid named James who has joined Cherub - a spy company. He is training and learning basic skills. Some of the things he has to do are really tough. I think this book is getting really good and interesting because now they are stranded on a island.
The strategies that we are learning is to picture the text in our head (visualising) also to write what we see. We are also learning how to summarise a text from a book into a small paragraph and in to our own words.We have been learning how to use descriptive language. My goal is to finish my book by the end of the term. I will read everyday.
What are you wondering about this book? I know that when I read this book, I was wondering whether James would have the stamina to keep going? In your next blog, I would like you to show some of your thoughts as you are reading.
