This month, we’ll discuss the book while snacking on pudding and fruit (Smoo breakfast!) Then we’ll make and test things that fly (paper airplanes, gliders, etc.)
What Happened:
Only one family came! They were troopers, though, and we did our best. Straw gliders are like the most fun thing ever.
Possible questions for discussion:
- If you got a secret note like Akiko’s, would you get on the spaceship? Why or why not?
- Mr. Beeba puts a lot of faith in book learning. Have you ever had a time when you tried to do something you’d only read about in a book? What happened?
- Akiko surprises herself by standing up to the Jaggasaur. Tell about a time when you did something you didn’t think you could do. How did it work out?
- Akiko gets 4 companions to help her rescue the kidnapped prince. If you could choose 4 companions for a dangerous mission, who would you pick?
- Akiko enjoys the food on the Planet Smoo, even though she doesn’t recognize any of it. What’s the most unusual food you’ve ever tasted? Did you like it?
- Do you think you could be replaced by a robot without anyone noticing? Why or why not? What would be most likely to give the robot away?
- If you could keep just one of Akiko’s companions, which one would you choose? If you had to give up just one, which one would you give up? Why?
