My All STAR Mentors Of The Week !!!!

This week I’ve choose Amanda as one of my all star mentors. To me in her post Blood is Thicker Amanda really to me broke down and made me think about family. And why just because were family do we have to be so close. I also like how Amanda didn’t just go on about her book the whole time; she connected it to her personal life. Amanda’s personal connections also made me think about my family and did I connect to the book in any way. Also it made me want to go read the book. I picked Amanda as one of my all star mentors because not only did she follow the structure for our blog post she exceeded it.

Hey if you guys want to go check out Amanda’s great blog post for yourself here’s the link




Okay so one of my other star mentors is Malik in class 812 also. What I really liked about Malik’s post was that it wasn’t on a book or anything school related, this was about a movie named Tron Legacy that Malik had recently saw. In his post he goes deep down in the movie and unpacks the theme and reasoning behind it. In his post Malik talks about the morals and concepts. I haven’t even seen the movie but Malik painted a picture for me of what happened in the movie. I really liked Malik’s post just because the way he unpacked the theory and theme of the movie and explained it. It really made me understand.

Here’s the link to check out Malik’s awesome blog post




My last all star mentor I’ve chosen is Ashley, in Ashley’s post in her book identical by Ellen Hopkins. What I really liked about Ashley’s post is the fact that she did make personal connections and how she felt about the book. You can tell from Ashleys post that the book really intrigued her and she felt deeply about it, and I could tell all this just by her post. Because her post was really detailed and it helped me understand the book. Ashley’s post gave me a summary of the book in one paragraph it wasn’t too much information it was just enough.
