 **May 4, 2009 pg. 1-34 I am the super summarizer today.

Jip lives in a farm called Poor Farm, he does almost all of the chores on his with his friend Sheldon. One day a man comes on a carrage tied up. Sheldon and Jip have to build a cage for him. They call him a lunatic and he has to be inside a cage. Jip brings him food and cleans in there too. He becomes friends with him. His real name is Put, well at least his friends used too call him that. Jip wakes up in the morning and he hears Put in the cage and he is moaning in the cage, he is in his bed scraching his face. Jip sits on the floor next to his bed and sings a song that Put always sings when Jip is cleaning the cage. He sings the words " I soon shall be From ev'ry pain and sorrow free. I shall the King of glory see, All is well, all is well". and he starts to calm.Jip goes to the store to sell a calf one morning and the owner of the farm takes the calf into the store to sell the calf and Jip waits in the carrage. A man walks out of the store and asks if he was in any relation to the man that just walked into the store and he ignored him. And the owner walks back and hops in the carrage and rides away. The next day he sees the man from at the store at their farm in the kitchen talking to the owners wife.

Great job, Jack. You have this done very complete. You didn't miss one detail. Very well done. Katie **

You didn't put your job on this. I assume you are the SS. You did a great job with this. Very thorough. Who wrote in the black below???? Mrs. Best . I did. **_ May 6 I am the passage picker today. I liked the part when Jip was waiting in the cart and the man walked out and started asking him questions. Then he was talking to Mrs. Lyman the next day at there farm and then the chapter ended and I wanted to know what would happen next. The other part I liked but it was sad, when the lamb died and he had to bury when mother of the lamb was crying, I was almost crying! I thought the part when Sheldon was getting attack by the chicken was funny! It was funny because he was scared of a chicken and Jip had to help him and get the chicken off.

I really liked those parts too. Jip has a lot of different emotions in it. Katie

I am the connection creator today. Here are some things I thought were like our life. Things that are like our lives. 1. I think if we were lost we would go to somebodies near house. 2. If a man was coming toward you, you would go as fast as you could to get away. 3. I would be happy to really know what happened to me when the farmer found me. 4. I would like to know who my mother was and what happened to her. Things that are not like our lives. 5. I would not ride in the opposite direction of my farm.

<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255); font-family: 'Comic Sans MS', cursive; font-size: 110%;">Great Job Jack! I would do a lot of those things too. Katie <span style="color: rgb(202, 0, 255); font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%;">

I am the word wizard today, here are some of the words i didn't know

Tabaccy-no meaning found

Fugitives-a person who is fleeing

Paupers-a person without any means of support

<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255); font-family: 'Comic Sans MS', cursive; font-size: 110%;">Great Words, Jack! I did not know any of those words either. Katie <span style="color: rgb(202, 0, 255); font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%;">

<span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-size: 132%; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Tabaccy is just slang for tobacco. This is a word in which the context would have helped you to know what it means. Mrs. Best <span style="color: rgb(202, 0, 255); font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%;"> Ok

I am the super summarizer today.

Put and Jip have just run away from poor farm and they are trying to get to the Stevens' house. The Stevens' are quakers who are going to hide them. The Brackett children are making it very difficult for the to get inside. Because they are standing at the front door, they have to sneak around to the back door. He is waiting for them to leave, while sitting forty ft. up in a tree. Since they are taking to long, he sneaks in the back door. When he gets inside he goes to bed just to wake up to a window closing.

You didn't leave anything out! Katie <span style="color: rgb(202, 0, 255); font-size: 110%; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">

I like the paragraph when Put died but it was very sad to. I thought it was kind of scary how he died when he was singing. It also made me a little scared when he was sneaking in the Averys' backyard, and the dogs were coming. I though they were going to attack him but they were just happy to see him.

I also thought that it was very sad when Put died and I thought the same thing about the dogs. Great job. Thomas D.

<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255); font-size: 110%; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS', cursive;">I thought it was very sad when Put died too. I agree it was very strange that Put died when he was singing. I also was scared when the dogs came. Luckily the dogs didn't attack him! Great Job, Jack!
