I Am Number Four By Pittacus Lore

      pages- 309- 440 END

1. Summarize



So At the party a huge fire breaks out and no one knows where Sarah was. So john went in and saved her.  Then the paper finds out and puts a thing on their website letting the mogidorians now find john.  So a huge war is waged.  And on the battle field is John number 4, Sarah, Mark, Sam, and Henrie.  Then there is a surprise appearance of number 6.  Because number 6 came the spell is broken so now anyone can be killed.  So while war is going on the mogidorians are totally winning.  So that is when John discovers that he can talk to animals and with that he convinces one of the mogidorians animals to help them.  They defeat but with the win Henri gets killed. That means that John # 6 and Sam must go.

2.  Quote


“We are both grabbed from behind and pulled to the ground.  I try to scream but a hand covers my mouth.  Fear rushes through me.  I can feel Sarah struggling beneath the grip and I do the same thing but the grip is too strong. I never anticipated this, the Mogidorians being stronger than i am.  I've failed.  I have failed Sarah and Henri and I’m sorry.  Henri, I hope you put up a better fight than I did.”  This actually describes the meeting between number 6 and number 4.  When she pulled them to the ground she was protecting them because the Mogadorians are right outside the door.

  

3. Connection to the text




So again I am just looking at this section and so it reminds me of every super hero movie I have ever seen.  The good vs that bad, evil and protectors, and so 4 and 6 are trying to save the earth from being destroyed and killed by the mogidorians.    So by the means of all old and new supper heroes good will prevail by no means.  It is like supper man.  4 can’t do it without 6. They fight even if it means death and risking their life’s for others. So as my last blog post I shall say this book is amazing so read it!

my scarry story


                            1 what inspired me

My house is placed in the beginning part of our 80 Acers so on each side of our house is the woods.  I have always been afraid of the woods at night so I thought to myself what a better idea for a horror story.  So I channeled all of my biggest fears of happenings and wrote them down.  With that LONG list I was able to construct my story.

                            2 the easiest part to write

For me the easiest part to write was the middle, because it was the most action filled part and I allread knew each and every word I was going to write.  Other than that the whole essay was pretty easy to write.

                            3 the most difficult part to write

Well for this one I must say the ending because it is supper sad and well it was had to decide what and how to make it end.  The hardest part was problem when Jake was dying because I tried to remember the feeling I had when my grandpa died; then I tried to connect that to what she must have been feeling when Jake died.

                            4 am I satisfied with my story

Well on a scale of 1 to 10 I would say 10.  I picked 10 because I am really with how my story turned out.  I love the suspense.

                            5 what age group should read this

Well to be honest 15- 101 young kids shouldn’t read this.  I say this because to me it is supper freaky.

                            6 finish the sentence

On my next writing project, I attention to grammar and spelling when I writing my story and not all when I am done

Writers prompt number 3

I Am Number Four By Pittacus Lore

Pages 83-93

Writers prompt number 3

 


    1. Summarize

                     This part of my book talks about what Lorain looks like. It also talks about how the mogidorians took over Lorain and how the nine form Lorain are the only ones keeping the earth alive. Then john learns more about his heat and fire proof power. After this a dog comes to john’s door and john begs henrie to keep this dog.  With all of this john learns about his vast powers and what all happened to Lorain when it fell.  Johns was laying on the table seeing how far up his arms are fire proof.  During all of this john sees Mogador attacking Lorain and sees his plain leave the solar system.
2. Quote
                     ““we got careless, John. That is how we were defeated so easily,” I know that the voice I’m hearing is henries. But he is nowhere to be seen, and I can’t take my eyes off the killing and destruction below me to look for him.” This talks about the taking over that the mogidorians did to Lorain.  Also it talks about the strategies that the mogidorians used against the Lorain’s.  When the mogidorians attached all of Lorain was celebrating a national holiday and they dropped from the sky and caught everyone off guard and that is why they were defeated so easily.
3. Connect to the text
                     So as I have said in my last two dairies this text is very specialized and the only connection I have is it to the movie. But in the book it is very different to the movie. So when it talks about john’s heat and fire proof that doesn’t happen in the book. It is amazing that books can be so different from the movie. With this movie and book it is hard to connect because of its very different train of thought and continuous idea and description.  To this does connect to any love story because it talks about how John is in love with this girl Sara.

1 summary of what I read


The Beginning of what I read shows them driving to Ohio. They are fleeing from The mogidorians who are killing them in order.  His name is John Smith But he has had many other names in his life.  He is from Lorain. His life has always been running away from them.  He has Been here since he was 9.  Lorain and Magidoria and 2 of the13 life sustaining planets. When Henry and John get to Paradise falls Ohio.  Our Relater told me to meet her daughter at school whose name was Sara.  Meet her and When He got to school he meet her and feel in love with her.  He then runs into her ex boyfriend Mark.  In Class on the first day of school john gets his first Legacy.  Legacies are powers that chosen Lorain’s get.  His hands light up and get supper hot so he waits till class is done and runs into the dark room where he sits in agony.  Henry gets him grabs his backpack and takes him home. Mark took Johns phone so on the next day of school John goes up to Mark and tells him to give it to him or he will fight Mark.  John becomes friends with a nerdy kid named Sam.  At lunch mark and his friends through meatballs at John and Sam.    Then john kicks one of his friends in the man area.   Then Sara gives John his phone back.  When john gets home Henry lets him open up the box that came with them from loran.  In the box is a rock.  When johns hands light up that means that he will be heat and fire proof.

2 Important Quote from the text


“I sit on the floor ,sweat stinging my eyes. Both hands are in terrible pain.  I knew to expect my Legacies, but I had no idea it would include this. I open my hands and my right hand is shining brightly, the light beginning to concentrate. My left is dimly flickering, the burning sensation almost unbearable. I wish Henry as here.  I hope he’s on his way.” This shows that when he got his legacies it hurt and how with this we see that Henri is very important to john.  Then it shows that this is his first Legacies of many.

3 Connection to the text


I thought that this part of the text shows that when you are a new kid can be super hard.  I can connect this to any alien movies and again the movie to this book.  This text is very hard to connect because it is like nothing I have ever read before.  I am not a big si-fi reader and si-fi movie watcher.  But  I can connect this to many movies I have watched because it shows that life is hard and that many people have secrets.

Waking up to Taylor


One Day the Night was stormy night the thunder shook the ground.  I was sleeping there in my bed wishing that I wasn’t who I am.  The thunder stopped and I was asleep.  That morning I woke up and my room was different.  It has silk curtains , a huge round bed,  a counter full of Grammies. Wait What Grammies!  I have never won a gremmie. A ran to the mirror that took up the wall to my left and looked.  I was no longer Makayla. I was Taylor Swift. I laid down and took a nap hoping this was just a dream.  I was awaken by a knocking saying that I had a busy day meeting people and a concert tonight.  I tried to do my best Taylor swift imprison but found out that I still talked like her.  I yelled to the voice that I was sick and could not do that today but in response the opened my door and told me that this was my job and even if I was feeling sick I was still going to meet all of these people.  So I slugged out of the bed and walked into the bathroom. The bathroom was the size of my room back home.  The shower was in the middle the showerhead trickled down water like a summer’s rain.  I tried not to freak out as I brushed “my” hair and put on makeup.  I went into “my” room and picked out a outfit from my huge closet.  Just when I thought my life was complete I went down stairs for breakfast. Food lined the table and I ate as much as I could.  When I was done I was greeted by the limo that was taking to the concert hall to rehearse.  When I looked outside I found out that this wasn’t her house this was her hotel room because we were in Paris.  My heart skipped a beat and I went off to the concert. When I was done I went to bed hoping for my life back. Although being Taylor is amazing I love my life and wouldn’t want it another way.

My hunted house


The walls shake shiver with fear. people cry and scream for help from inside the enclosed death bead. little children cry at just the thought of ghosts and goblins. Wait this is way too freaky. I hate this freaky cry at the spot idea I absolutely hate haunted houses. See this is what I mean I don’t mind Halloween seriously I love it but I don’t like to be scared on my own account. So since I am writing about what my hunted would look, smell, and be like here you go . You enter a hall with family pictures lined up music does the du du we know so well. Then a little girl pops out of the dark side hallway and gives everyone a lollipop. you go to the next corridor the walls close in you think you are going to die than it stops and it is a nice hall way with 5 doors that all lead to the same thing. Then you hop on a train that takes you into a tunnel that is freaky and smells like cheese.  Then the train turns into a boat and you go on a fun water ride that gets your blood moving in the good way.  The lights flicker on and off u are moving fast then you stop suddenly and walk off into the gift shop! Where we sell not so hunted house cookies and stuffed animals.  So I know this sounds stupid but I think it is a good twist. I  hate hunted houses so I decide to do a twist on this classic tale.  See I love to dress up but I hate the scare part of the holiday. I guess you could call me a coward when it comes to this holiday. Well I will talk to you all soon!! Bye all!!

I Am Number Four By Pittacus Lore
pages 1-10
I got this Book on wednesday so i wasn't able to read much

For the next cupple of blogs i will be telling all of you about my book and what is going on :)

Summary of what I read

This book is about 9 kids that where born on a diferent planet and when the Mogidorians took over their planet the came to earth.  the Mogidorians want to kill all of these kids but he can only kill them in order.  In the begining of the story it tells about how number 3 died in the hands of the mogidorians. In the next chapter it tells the story of number 4.  When one of the kids die the others get a scar and then they know when they are next to die.  Number 4 has always been on the move and he knows that he is next.

Important quote from the text

" I dove off the side of the boat and started swimming, underwater the entire time, except for one breath about halfway there, as fast as i could untill I reached the shore.  I ran along the side of the highway, just inside of the tree line,  moving at speeds as fast as any of the cars.  When i got home, Henri was at the bankof scanners and monitors the he used to research news around the world, and police activity in our area.  He knew without me saying a word, though he did lift my soaking pants to see the scars"  This quote shows the life he lives always knowing this day would come.  and he knew that he wasnt a normal boy

Connections to the text

 I felt that this section of the book was not very conectibal for me but it may be conectibal for people that have moved alot. But it is hard to cenect to this section but i can conect it to the move if that counts but i have a feeling that it dosent.  This section is all about him and how he is next to die.  So it is supper hard to relate to.

Well that is all have have for tonight
Night All!
