    Dear Mrs. Yollis,

    I just left a quality comment to Mr. Salsich about what I did over the summer. I told him I am looking forward to doing Skype calls with him. I always Skype with my mom when she travels to another state or country.

    I really liked the video that you and Mr. Salsich made together. How did you make the video together? My favorite nonfiction text feature is captions because I like to look at photos and the captions explain about the photo.

    From,
    Sarah

    From your student,
    Sarah

    Dear Mrs. Yollis,

    I visited Mr. Salsich's blog and left a quality comment about chameleons. The best part about Mr. Salsich's blog are the chameleon videos. The videos are interesting because one has photos of real chameleons. When showing the adaptations I couldn't find the chameleon in the leaves because of his camouflage.

    I love your Reading Round-Up video. It reminded me of a real western with cowboys and you were the star! The non-fiction text feature I like best is the glossary. A glossary is a mini dictionary that will help you spell and learn the meaning of new words.

    Do you have a favorite non-fiction book?

    Your student,
    Rexon
