On Tuesday we watched an interview of Michael Morpurgo about his inspiration of writing War Horse. After watching the video we individually made a google document and answered what inspirated him of writing War Horse. Finally we made a Sentence-Phrase-Word thinking routine.

In language we have been working with revolting rhymes. Angie divided us in groups and assigned each group a story. My group was formed by Juana Fernandez Calvo, Clara Zorraquin and Cata Pernarcic. Our story was “Cinderella”. Our task was to find similarities and differences between the real story and the revolting rhyme.

The main character is Cyril Winnington Boggis. Mr. Boggis is a fraud and a scam. He pretends to be a clergyman to get things for less money saying that they were for the church, he didn’t want the people to know that he was a dealer. He is also a cheater and a liar.
b) Characters: name two other characters mentioned in the story, and give short despcritpions.
Rummins: The farm owner, he was a stumpy and king of grumpy man.
Claud: He was a neighbor, he was a short and broad-shouldered, he is smart.
c) Write a dialogue between Boggis and Rummins when he returns to find that the legs have been sawn off.
Rummins: Hey, we cut off the legs of the commode because it won’t fit in your car, but, what’s wrong?
Boggis: Oh my god, you are such a stupid man!!!, How could you do that?!?!. That commode cost thousands of pounds!!!
Rummins: Sorry parson, but you said that the commode costed nothing!
Boggis: i was lying you idiot! that commode was very expensive!!
Rummis: You are such a fraud!
