La mère est allée parler avec l’enseignante. Un jour Lily et moi a vu une personne qui a poussé une autre personne dans la terre. La personne qui est tombée, Lily et moi sommes allées voir un professeur pour lui dire.

  4. Élizabeth devrait dire au gens d’arreter.
    Quand les gens m’appelle des noms méchants je deviens faché mais je m’éloigne. Louis de Dixville a vecu de l’intimidation à Galt. Virginia se cachait derrière les tables pour ne pas se faire intimider. Elle était triste.

  5. Elizabeth doit dire à ses parents mais les intimidateurs disent quand tu dit a tes parents tu es un bébé.
    Ils disent ça parce qu’ils ne voulaient pas être en trouble.

    À Dixville, il y a des intimidateurs à l’école. Louise n’aime pas les intimidateurs. Je ne suis pas un intimidateur et il n’y a pas des personnes comme ça à L.E.S.

    Élizabeth devrait dire au professeur quoi ils ont dit. Le professeur va arrêter la personne. J’ai vécu l’intimidation et j’ai je dit quelque chose a la personne et c’est allé en cycle. Cette personne a continué appelé moi des noms . Robert a reçu un coup de poignts et il n’a pas aimé ça. Nous a la mêmes expériences de nos amis a Dixville.

  7. Elizabeth devrait dire aux professeurs parce que c’est pas fun d’être appelé des noms pas gentils. Je pense que les professeurs feraient dits aux filles de l’arrêter! Parce que quand un professeur dit arrête, faut que les étudiants écoute. Sa me ressemblé quand Virginia a nous parlons d’une histoire quand elle est agressée et intimidée à Galt.

    1. Élizabeth devrait faire assemblant que cela nous ne dérange pas. Parce que quand tu fais ça la personne qui dit ça est comme « wow!» et arrête. 2. Quand les personnes de Dixville est arrivées, j’ai eu triste en écoutaient de leurs histoires, parce que deux personnes a été agressé et intimidé à l’école. Comme mes frères qui m’intime parfois chez nous.

    Si j’étais Elizabeth j’irais dire à les personnes qui me font mal “arrêtez! Ce n’est pas gentil. Est-ce que tu aimerais si je fais des blagues avec ton nom ? Ça me fait mal.

  11. Les personnes de Dixville

    Elizabeth devrait dire à sa mère et la mère peut dire au directeur. Le directeur peut mettre la fin à l’intimidation.

    Robert a été dit qu’il ne peut pas faire des choses mais il a dit je peux et il a fait. Virginia a été pousser dans les casiers. Louis fait des compétitions de poids lourds. Louise fait de la peinture.

    WHERE’S CHIMPY – Bernice Rabe
    Response to Literature



    The lesson we learned in this story is that even if Misty, the little girl in the story, has Down’s syndrome she is the same as us in many ways.
    The author showed us this when Misty looked around for Chimpy, her stuffed monkey, just like we sometimes look for things too. Misty could not sleep without Chimpy, and we won’t sleep without our stuffed animals sometimes as well.
    When Misty lost Chimpy it reminded us of the times we all lost our stuffed animals and we wouldn’t go to sleep without them. This is just like in the story when Misty lost Chimpy and she wouldn’t go to sleep with out her Chimpy.
    We really liked that the illustrator used real pictures. Because all of the pictures are real then we could tell exactly how she was feeling. The colors and the clothes were real. It made the story real and easy to believe what they were saying. If it was just cartoons it would be really hard to understand that they were actually going through this for real. J

    Where’s Chimpy?

    The author, Berniece Rabe, taught us that people with intellectual differences can do mostly what most people can do and we should treat them the same way.

    Berniece Rabe showed us this on mostly every page like when Misty talked differently but she could still play like most people. She pretty much do everything like most children in the world.

    She reminds us of when we lost our toys and it took us a while to find them. Like the part of the story when Misty lost Chimpy (teddy bear) and found everything she didn’t want.

    We liked the illustrator’s use of photographs instead of drawings because it is realistic and colourful. The illustrations on every page in the book “Where’s Chimpy” are not black and white because this is plain. Most people like colourful books, just like “Where’s Chimpy?”

    Where’s Chimpy

    The author’s message in the story is that people with intellectual differences have more similarities than differences with people that don’t have intellectual difference.

    The author showed us this when Misty loves her stuffed animals like Chimpy, just like Israella likes her teddy named Waff Junior, Jeremy likes his stuffed husky named Lucky, and I , Mathew, like my stuffed elephant name Ely.

    We can relate to the story when Misty is so happy to find all her stuff that she has lost. This is like us when we lose our stuffed animals, we are also sad.

    We liked the illustrator’s use of real photo’s because it was really realistic.

    The wonderful lesson we learned in this storybook is that even though Misty, the girl in the story, has down’s syndrome we all are the same in many ways!! Berniece Rabe, the author, showed us that Misty had the same kind of toys as most people. For example she had stuffed animals, a ball, a sandbox and a swing set.

    The connection that we all have to the story is that our brothers and sisters have something that they like to bring wherever they go!! This is just like Misty when she takes Chimpy everywhere she goes, like her grandmother’s and her sandbox. She also likes to take Chimpy to bed just like other kids!!

    We found that the colours of the pictures really makes them stand out and look real. All of the pictures used were colored photographs.

    Where’s Chimpy ??
    Response to Literature

    The author’s message in the book is don’t threat others differently because they are disabled, we all have more in common then difference. One proof is that Misty also likes fairy tales just like us.
    A connection to our life is that we have also lost a ball just like Misty. Once Reiley lost her mom, her I-pod, and her favorite shirt. Tyler lost his books. Misty also lost her Chimpy, her favorite truck and she was worried. Just like we were.
    We both liked every picture because every page looked realistic.

    Where’s Chimpy?
    Response to Literature


    The lesson we learned in this storybook is that we are all the same even if we talk different or look different. Inside we are all the same. Just like us, we walked differently like Misty when we were younger. Maybe it takes more time for them, a down’s syndrome child, to learn or understand but they will always have the chance to do what we do. It may just take longer. That’s what we think. We are the same in many, many ways!J!J!J

    The author showed us this when Misty called Chimpy ‘Chimpy honey’ and when she said “I want Chimpy” and when she said “Think hard.” The sad part was when she said “Chimpy gone.” LLL That’s what shocked us. It made us laugh when she said “Think hard.”JJJ

    This reminded us of when we all lost our favourite teddy and we searched a long, long, long time like Misty did. We looked everywhere for our teddies!!! Finally, we found them and we were happy!!! This was just like Misty when she lost her teddy Chimpy and she looked everywhere for him. She finally found her Chimpy which made her happy just like us.

    We like the colour around the pictures. It’s just like a frame around the photographs. The colours really hit us they were so bright.


    We have a lot in common with Misty!!!

    Where’s Chimpy?
    Response to Literature

    The author of the book, “Where’s Chimpy?”, showed us that just because people have down’s syndrome doesn’t mean that we should treat them differently. If you look in the mirror, your reflection might be different but it is the same inside as everyone else.

    The author should us this when Misty was acting the same way somebody would act if they lost something important. This reminded us of the time we lost our teddies, just like Misty lost her toy monkey, Chimpy. We were all upset and angry. Only two of us found our stuffed toys.

    We like the illustrator’s use of photographs as flash backs because it had showed where Misty had been. In the book almost all the pages used flash backs.

    Where’s Chimpy?
    Response to Literature



    The lesson we learned from the story is even though some of us take longer to understand things we are very much the same. Another lesson we learned is that even though we look and sound different, deep down we have a lot in common.

    The author showed us this when Misty, the girl with Down syndrome, went looking for her stuffed monkey. Just like many of us would when we were little.

    This makes us remember when all of us at some point lost one of our toys and
    could not sleep until we found it. This is like the part in the story when Misty would not go to bed until she found Chimpy.

    We liked the authors’ story because it is funny and it has lots of important messages. In the author’s book she shows us how Misty has much in common with all of us.

    The lesson we learned from Bernice Rabe is that people with Down Syndrome are just like us. The author showed us this when Misty didn’t pick up her things just like other kids.
    We can connect to Misty because we also lose our things. When she lost Chimpy it reminded us of when we lost our stuffed dog and cat.
    Every picture in this book is real. This way a small child reading the story can just look at the pictures and they know what is going on.
