In Ms. Mitchell’s class we were so excited to find out what was going to happen next in The Twit’s so we read THREE chapters of the book today!
We all took turns reading and listening carefully to the story.
Mr. Twit was trying to help Mrs. Twit grow taller by stretching her. He tied her ankles to a ring in the ground and then he tied her neck and wrists to 60 gas filled balloons. Mr. Twit planned to leave her there for a few days but then he had a different idea. He cut the strings on her ankles and Mrs. Twit went up into the sky like a rocket! Mrs. Twit was very clever and she bit 21 balloon strings and she floated back down to earth. When she was coming back down the birds flew past and saw her knickers!! We all thought this was hilarious.
After every chapter we talked about what had happened in that chapter and how Mr and Mrs Twit might have felt.
Then we predicted what was going to happen in the next chapter. We were all happy and laughed at some of the predictions. Arturas thought that Mrs. Twit would fly away up to space, Johnny thought Mrs. Twit was going to get stretched out very tall and I thought Mrs. Twit was going to fall and hurt herself. We all found the predictions very funny and couldn’t wait to keep reading and find out who was right.
We are really enjoying reading The Twits and can’t wait to see what is going to happen next!
