Global Read Aloud Update

We've read the first 7 chapters of the book The Little Prince so far. In our first effort to collaborate with other schools across the country, we are sharing our answers to the following question:

How do you predict that the Prince and the narrator will escape from the desert?

Here's what the students came up with:

think they will get out by fixing the airplane and he is going to tell everybody about it.



I think that they are going to make something like something that flies.



I think hes going to escape the desert is that his car or something is going to work a little and he’s going to get help from people and they fix the car and after that he is going to fly or drive back home.



Maybe they will find a mechanic and he’ll fix the plane.



I think they’re going to take the airplane apart then make it in to a teleport device. So then they can teleport to the planet, so then the might save the planet.



The way I think the little prince and the narrator are going to get out of the dessert is that they are going to send a message to the planet that the little prince lives on. And they will come and get them.



I think Little Prince is going to escape by fixing the plane and flying to a different state or city.



I think hes going to escape the desert is that his car or something is going to work a little and hes going to get help from people and they fix the car and after that he is going to fly or drive back home



I think that they are going to fix the plane and get help.



I think he will call with his speakerphone and they will save them.



I think he’s going to fix the plane and learn where Little Prince came from.



I think they will find a tree to climb up and escape to the Prince’s planet.

If you are a reading this and you're a student, teacher, or classroom participating in the Global Read Aloud, PLEASE leave a comment to let us know what you think. We'd love to hear your thoughts. THANKS! And stay tuned for our pictures of a boa constrictor eating an elephant!

Hello Room 302. I am a fourth grade teacher in Flint. We are also reading The Little Prince, but we have only read chapters 1-6 so far. I love your predictions about how the Prince will escape. You have many creative ideas! My students are excited about writing on your blog. Watch for their posts soon. : )

I think making a teleporter is a great idea. If he made a teleporter, where will he go?
-Brandon

I think it's cool he might teleport. It might send him somewhere else instead of the Little Prince's planet.
-Gene

I think he's going to fix his plane and learn where the Little Prince comes from.
-Ardeija

I think he is going to find a mechanic to help fix the plane, so he can fly to his planet and save it.
-Zontavin

I think it is a great idea for him to get a speaker phone on his airplane, and for him to call for help.
-Donovan

I think they are going to fix the plane and get help. I think it's true because the boy was trying to fix it, and if the Little Prince helps then they can fix it and put a microphone on the plane.
-Mary Jane

I think that it might be a good idea because I think the Little Prince can help fix the plane.
-Jessena

I think it would be cool to see 44 sunsets, but the sun might burn your eyes.
-Carissa

I agree that they are going to make a teleport to the planet, and that they are going to save the Little Prince.
-LaAngel

I think that all the little creatures on the planet are going to help him put the airplane back together.
-Nya

I think that the Little Prince will help save the plane so they can go back to his planet.
-Adrice

I think the Little Prince should fix the plane and fly back to where he came from.
-Charissa

I think the man will and fix the plane, and escape the desert.
-Kenneth

He might get his plane fixed and fly to the Little Prince's planet, and then help fix his planet.
-Jetia

They might find a mechanic, which would be a good idea because then they would have help and the Little Prince could go home.

Thank you for the wonderful comments, Mrs. Wilson's class! We can't wait to hear what you think about the next question: How is the prince getting from planet to planet?
