  4. T= answered in the text Text At school they say I’m wired bad, or wired mad, or wired glad, depending on my mood and what teacher has ended up with me. But there is no doubt about it, I’m wired (Gantos 7). Question What do they say about Joey at school?

  5. BK= uses background knowledge to answer Text At school they say I’m wired bad, or wired mad, or wired glad, depending on my mood and what teacher has ended up with me. But there is no doubt about it, I’m wired (Gantos 7). Question What does wired mean?

  6. I= answered with inferences Text This year was no different. When I started out all the days there looked the same. In the morning I’d be OK and follow along in class. But after lunch, when my meds had worn down, it was nothing but trouble for me (Gantos 7). Question Why would his meds wearing down cause trouble for him?

  7. D= answered with more discussion Text I had seen the Tasmanian Devil on TV whirling around like a top so I unbuckled my belt and pulled on the end really hard, as if I was trying to start a lawn mower (Gantos 9). Question Would a belt really make you whirl around like the Tasmanian Devil?

  8. RS= needs more research to answer Text I had seen the Tasmanian Devil on TV whirling around like a top so I unbuckled my belt and pulled on the end really hard, as if I was trying to start a lawn mower (Gantos 9). Question How does the Tasmanian Devil start whirling around like in the cartoon?

  9. C= signals confusion Text Then the principal came out and pinned me against the wall and we had a little talk about my behavior goals and I spent the rest of the day on her office floor sorting out all the used crayons that the kindergarten kids kept in big plastic tubs until I had separate piles of blue a ndgreen and red and yellow and you know the rest (Gantos 10). Question Why was Joey sorting crayons for kindergarten kids?

  10. Your Turn • Use the questions in the envelope and sort them into categories based on the type you think they are.
