Wonder Book V.S Wonder Movie

This year we read the book and watched the movie Wonder. In my opinion, I liked the book better than the movie, because there was more to the story and there were more events that was in the book but not in the movie. There were many similarities and differences between the movie and the book.

First lets discussed what matched. In the movie, they still had different perspectives. Also, when Auggie got the award lots of people came to congratulate him for the medal, there were lots of people like they said in the book. Jack was on skeleton hill and he found the sled which was in the junk like they said in the movie, I thought it would be just on the ground like it was forgotten.

Now let's consider the areas where the movie did not follow the book. Summer did not go to a party and leave Auggie at the parade. Auggie did not get hearing aids and they did not get snatched of at the nature recruit camp.Jack said sorry to Auggie on minecraft not facebook. The book did not explain why Julian left, but in the movie they explained why Julian did not come to the nature recruit camp.

Overall, I thought that the book was a little bit better because it had more interesting parts, the movie was great, but if it had everything that was in the movie and with some parts that changed it would have as good as the book.

My Competition

On thursday, I went to Dubai for my archery competition. All of my cousins were there that were from my moms side. My grandma and grandpa were there too (moms side). My auntie and my grandpa and my grandma (dads side) were there to for my aunties competition. My teacher and they were fixing my bow, while everyone else was shooting for practice. I looked around for people I know. Then I saw a girl that was there for the last competition, I thought "She is really good".  We shot our rounds and in each round we had to shoot six arrows in four minutes. Sadly, I did not shoot four arrows. But at the end, I ended up getting third place. The gurl who got second, was one point ahead of me. Never give up on what you love to do.

Letter to Mrs.Palacio

Dear Mrs.Palacio

Our class just finished reading Wonder. It is so awsome! These are my thoughts on this great book.

 Why I think this book is great is because it tells other people that some people might be different and thats just the way it is. I think that is what this book is about beacuse in this book Jacl said " I know it wasnt cool, but I kinda went "uhh". I have short hair and I read this book and I thought to myself, who cares!? I would recommend this book to anyone that is having a had time or just anyone in general. Thank you for writing this book. 

Sincerely,

                   Esha Mathew Vacha

National museum

On discover oman we went to the National museum. We were the first group in Taism to have a tour of the museum. My mom was a chaperone and my group had six people and it was great. We watched a little movie about oman and how it was a long time ago. My favorite part about  the museum was the instruments place where you can listen to omani music. Then we went to the workshop and we designed some dresses for woman out of color or fabric. Then a person who worked at the museum picked the best one and Laura won 500 baisa. 

After the museum, we went to the qurum park for lunch. After 1 and half hour of lunch we went to play. My friends and I went on some slides and went to the wadi mats to have some rest. Later we saw some arabian girls and we went to say hi to them but they didn't know how to speak that much english so we said hi in arabic a left, but they kept following us. After running around with the arabian girls it was time to go back to school, so we packed up and drove back to school.
