Minnesota Orchestra

 Both sites are interesting to kids because of the games the pictures and maybe even the way it looked (cartoons). I liked both sites because they were creative they gave lots of information and that information makes me want to go to the Minnesota Orchestra even more. One thing I don't like about one of the sites is all of the words. It may be interesting for adults but it kind of gets boring to student after a while. The website show me how difficult music can be. The people who listen to the music like me has the simple part of the job because all we do is listen but i enjoy music.

Think and respond A Do-it-yourself project

1. Mari learns that she can do things on her own
2. At the beginning of the story Mari felt as if she could do it but at the end she felt she couldn't do it.
3. I think the author was trying to say that people should be able to help others but when they do all the work and turn it in to there assignment its not OK.
4. I think teachers should judge student's projects based on how much work it looks like they put in to it and how they present it.
5. The reading strategies I used were reading and questioning.
