I hope Roz and Brightbill will be together again, because if something ever happened to my grandma and she could never come back home to me, I would be too sad!Your class will explore: Nouns, Adjectives, Verbs, Adverbs, Pronouns and Prepositions and will be able to refer to the table below explaining each word class. Lo and behold, when the shipment arrived, my son finished the last two chapters in Book 1 and started reading The Wild Robot Escapes on his own. Students can compare how different animals helped Roz by detailing which animals made the most impact on saving Roz’s life.

Heavy water pounded against her body and knocked her to the ground, and her Damage Sensors flared for the first time. I cannot understand why the author would add in gun violence, when the robot and the animals had been doing such a wonderful job of solving problems. A gang of sea otters was romping through the shallows when one of them noticed the sparkling objects.

And all the while I was quietly tinkering with my robot nature story and studying everything from artificial intelligence to animal behavior to outstanding children’s novels.
