Hey! That's My Chair! (11/29/11)
|
| Description:
|
Our class is now in the middle of writing our realistic fiction stories, using Peter’s Chair by Ezra Jack Keats as the mentor text. In this book, Peter's Chair is the story of a boy named Peter whose parents have just had a new baby. Peter walks around the house and notices that his parents are fussing with the new baby and painting his baby furniture pink! Peter's jealousy caused him to make a serious decision. He packs some things, including his little chair which he is determined his parents will not paint pink, and decides to run away.
Think of times in your life that you have been jealous of someone because of something they had. What were you jealous of? How were you able to control your feelings?
Imagine you were Peter. What would you have done if you had to share your belongings to your new little sister? Has something similar happened to you?
Make sure that you triple-check your blog and your comments for proper capitalization, grammar, punctuation and spelling!

I wouldn’t give the chair because it’s not fair because it’s a memory of my childhood. I have a small red chair but I never would give it away. It’s the best chair I have ever had! I never had to give my small chair.

What would I do if I shared my belonging to my "baby" sister
I would go and give her not all the things I have, but all the things that seem worthless to me. Probably my toys that I had a few years ago, my pacifier, my bib, my highchaer, and my carseat. i would not give her any gaming devices, my candy, my toothbrush, or my books.

I once got jealous of my sister having a lot of sleep overs. I controled my feelings by trying to forget about it, and I did. Soon, my mom let me have a sleep over.
If I was Peter and my mom was painting all of my old baby-stuff pink for my little sister, I would be fine because I would be to old for the baby-stuff.

I have a little sister. She might only be a minute younger but she is still younger than me. We have to share a lot of things. I really wanted an x-box all for myself but I had to share it with my sister. We don’t like playing the same games. When I have to share the x-box with my sister I sometimes get mad and frustrated when I have to stop playing to let her play.
