- Makensie: When I went to Hawaii, I saw a dolphin.
- Dylan: I saw bubbles in a book and I see bubbles a lot.
- Elizabeth: When the dog got hurt in my book it was sad. It reminded me of my dog who died.
- Nick: When I was reading about the worm, it reminded me of when we read it because his teacher was so silly.
- Beau: The map we're making about the Solar System--I made a connection. When I read about the Milky Way, it reminds me of Dora...when my sister watches it. We saw the Milky Way on there.
- Maddy: I had a connection because my cat chases mice and in the book it had a cat chasing mice.
