**She is a really, lets say she is not like other teachers. She does not get people in trouble and she takes kids on crazy field trips like art museums. She is really kind and likes her kids in her class.

He is so funny and encourages you to do really good in school. If you are good he will reward you sometimes.

Because they are trying to find out who gave them the letters and why. Mister November** ms.Hussey is interesting,she doesnt mind when people get in trouble, or when the do bad things. She seems like a cool teacher though. Mr.Meyer is interesting, because somtimes he likes to do handstands, laugh like a grimmlin, and he gives you random weird comments.. I think this is a mystery, because they are trying to find who are sending these letters...Fred4life

I think Ms.Hussy is WIERD! She let’s kids get away with things like if they do bad things she just lets them get away with things. He laughs REALLY LOUD! But he’s AWESOME!...BAnne45
By;3oh!3 rox Ms.Hussy is really more like REALLY weird!!! I’m gonna agree with BAnne45 and say that, Ms.Hussy does let kids get away with things. My teacher is interesting in a very good and awesome way, these are some re sons he is a good teacher, My teacher is a very unique teacher, he is a very fun teacher, he is a preparing teacher to his students. the mystery is that the frogs are disappearing.

=== Yes, I think Mrs. Hussey is a little interesting too. Mr. meyer is a little weird because he imitates little kids, laughs like a two year old, and he just randomly. i think its a mystery because of the vanishing artist, the letters, and their teacher and Mrs. Sharpe.by: lollypop4life10 ===

I would like to visit the Wax Museum, because that seems fun to me, I would love to take a picture with a “wax” Forrest Gump... Because mabe you would want to impress the teacher’s and kids to show them how smart you are...The letters, seem hard to understand, I cant figure it out that well...Fred4life

=== I would like to go to the Misoniuen Museum because it would be very interesting. Kids get motivated by learning about things they are interested in. I can’t really figure out the letters in chapter six there very confusing but I would love to learn how to read them I would really like to go to a museum like that because those things really interest me. I would like to go to a museum in chicago and that museum would be the museum of all sorts of things, art, science, nature, the world. I have been to that museum and I don’t remember the name. 3oh!3rox ===

 * In reading, strong readers often make connections to help make their book more interesting, exciting, and desirable to read. One type of connection is a text to text connection. This means that the reader is connecting some aspect of the current book they're reading to another book they've read. List three (3) text to text (t-t) connections you've made so far about your novel.

1.)In the part were Calder, and Petra were at Mrs. Sharpes house. It kinda reminded me in “The Series of Unfortunate Events” when they go to sertant guardians houses...

2.) In the part when Petra and Calder were talking about being at museums and looking at statues and paintings.. It reminded me of “The Lightning Theif” because in the begining when Percy’s class were on a feild trip to a mueseum.

3.) And when Petra and Calder were at Mrs. Sharpes house when they were in the kitchen, and they explainded how the kitchen looked like... It reminded me of “Tuck Everlasting,” because at Winnies house it was old and looked like Mrs. Sharpes....

** 3.) I can’t really think about anymore books I’ve read and It would be a text to self .**
I really connect with Petra because she is a very curious girl. This book is a very confusing mystery book but very interesting. The book is sweet because in every picture their is a clue either a pentagram or a frog. 30h!3rox

 * Connecting prior knowledge and experience to reading deepens comprehension. I would like you to explain one type of connection that you've made with the book you've been reading.** __List__ and __explain__ the __type of connection made__ & __answer how this helped you to understand the story better__.

I relate to Petra by being curious she is REALLLLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYY CURIOUS. I hope to solve a mystery some day too  3oh!3

I really connect with Petra because she is really curious and I’m like that too! Some day I want to solve a mystery.
My connection is that I love mysteries because you have to find clues to figure out the mystery, or it is not a mystery. I like when you figure it out. misternovember

I’ve kinda connected to this book.. Because I’ve done a stupid mystery befor. Like on Easter about a year ago my mom made me do a scavanger-hunt.. So i like to do mysteries. So I’ve done what Petra and Calder has done. It made the story better,because I’ve had experience. Fred

**As the novel is coming to a close, it is reaching it's climax. The climax is the most exciting part of the novel. What is happening in the book to lead you to think you are at the climax? Describe the action, how does it keep the reader's interest? What predictions would you make at this point?**

====I think that Petra is related to Petra because she was the first person to get tied up in he mystery I really enjoys this book because someday when I’m older I want to publish my very own book about my life. ====

By: BAnne45
I think the climax is when “Glitter Man” was chaing Calder, and Petra. Because it was packed full of action when “Glitter Man” hurt Calder by knocking him down..

And about 2 days later or 1 day later Petra went to the neighbors and found Calder in a tree house.

I made a connection by thinking out hide and go seek lol, because usually when I play that game my friends chase each other and usually hurt one another and then they hide some place else... 30h!3 # 1 fan (Fred)
