Page 200In the last paragraph on page 200 it says “But Suki shook her head.” Suki’s sisters believe she should wear something new and coll. Suki wants to wear her favorite thing, her kimono.

Page 203The sisters walk ahead of Suki and pretend they don’t know her. This shows they want to be like everyone else and are embarrassed that Suki dressed differently. Suki, on the other hand, doesn’t seem to mind being different, she feels very please to be dressed in her kimono.

Page 204On page 205 the words “swoosh, swoosh” describe the sound. The author wants us to imagine the sound of Suki and Penny swinging.

Page 206Suki is either angry or embarassed. On page 27 it says “she felt her cheeks burn.”

Page 208They were fascinated by her performance. Suki had helped students feel the dance and what it meant to her.

Page 210Even though she looks different, cuasing other students to make fun of her, Suki delights in wearing her kimono. She shows pride in her Japanese heritage by dancing for her classmates.

Theme: Don’t be afraid to be different.

Page 212Penny is dressed casually in overalls. Suki is dressed formally in a long, flowing, kimono.

Page 4: Page 200 Find a statement that shows Suki disagrees with her sisters. How are their beliefs different? Page 203 What do the actions of Ski and her sisters

Page 232IT says she visits her Spanish-speaking grandparents on Sundays so she speaks Spanish on Sundays (233)

Page 233Those are in a different language-Spanish. The author wants them to stand out so the reader notices them.

Page 234Same: Both make breakfast for her (234) and both have pets (215)Different: They make different foods (234)

Page 234She loves them and loves spending time with them.

Page 235The author wants to show how the cultures of the grandparents are alike even though there are differences.

Page 236I can look at the context. The girl is counting owls. It must be the number.

Page 237She loves them. ON page 236 it says she grew up on a farm and that she is glad to have chickens in her backyard.

Page 238Same: They both bring the girl colorful presents.Different: Grandpa brings her balloons and Abuelita brings a kite.

Page 238No, because if she did, they would proably be with her on her visits to her grandparents.

Page 239A bouquet of flowers

Flowers are colorful and a bouquet is a bunch of flowers tied together.

Page 240 The story is RF because it tells about events that could really happen. Many children are close to their grandparents.

Page 241 The reader gets strong feeling about how happy the girl is about visiting both sets of grandparents.

Page 241It says grandma was proud of her grandmother and her abuelia was proud of her Indian blood and her mama so I think the girl is proud too.

Page 242Grandma makes a doll and a dress in the girl’s favorite colors. Abuelita made a dollhouse and a dress just like the doll’s dress. The presents go together.

Page 243The girl says its her birthday and both sets of grandparents are at her house so I think there will be a birthday party.

Page 245On page 244 it says that Abuelita is holding the rope of the pinata and covering the children’s eyes. Grandpa and Grandma are just watching.

Page 264The text says she “frowns” and says that she is going to a “Strange, foreign place.” She is scared and unhappy about moving.

Page 265The text mentions that monsoon is a season. IT also mentions rain tapping on the window. A monsoon must be a rainy season.

Page 266The first sentence on page 266 says her parents were “very excited.” Jangmi is upset about moving because she has “no friends.”

Page 267The weather will be different. Both places have melons, but American will have honeydew instead of the Korean Chummy.

Page 268IN the 2nd paragraph, the words sad, love, laughter, and tears tell me that this is a sad party.

Page 269The girls are talking about how far apart they will be. This makes them feel sad. Glum means “sad.”

Page 270 I think the hardest event was saying good-bye to Kisuni because Jangmi has no friends in America.

Page 270She says, “good-bye, 382 Shin Dang Dong.” That must be the address, so she’s saying good-bye to her house.

Page 271She already knows that she is going to feel uncomfortable there because it will be so different from her house in Korea.

Page 272I don’t think she is ready to change anything else in her like. When asked id she wanted to change, she says, “no, I like my name.”

Page 273She asks her father how she will learn English. She practices saying her English name over and over.

Page 274Her father says the tree outside is “just like the one at home.” Jangmi’s mother says, “the movers are here.”

Page 274Her new address stands for her new life in America. Her old address reminds her of Korea.

Page 277Korea: family ate traditional foods and celebrated the family’s move. America: neighbors brought American food to welcome them. The food seemed strange to Jangmi.

Page 278The tree reminds her of the one outside her home in Korea. On page 278 she says, “ maybe I would come to love it as much as out willow tree back home.”

Page 279In Korea she sat under a tree and talked to her best friend. Jangmi hopes she can soon do the same thing in her new home.
