The Great Turtle

 In class we went to canvas from the computer and read an article in Newsela called “The Great Turtle.” It was an Origin myth. I learned that the origin myth from Newsela is a creation story. The story impacted me because I could picture what happened in the story if I was one of the animal characters trying to help the daughter. I plan to understand with this story meant and carry that on to the next story I read. I liked the story overall. It wasn’t my favorite but it’s worth reading different story’s about origin myths. I struggled with answer the bonus thinking questions at the end. I feeling good today. My day is tiring from being in school cause I still feel sleepy here and there but doing ok.
