This graphic novel is actually an autobiography of what happened when Cece Bell lost her hearing as a young girl. In order to hear in school, she wore a special hearing aid called a "Phonic Ear". This book tells the story of her learning how to handle feeling different, and searching for true friendship.

The book El Deafeo is a very interesting book for three reasons. The first reason why El Deafeo is a great book is because she writes the book and that was about her life when she became deaf and had hearing aids. The second reason why El Deafo is an interesting book is because it is written as a graphic novel, which makes the book easier to read. Finally, the last reason why El Deafeo is a great book is because it relates to my friend and it makes me feel warm inside that someone has shared there thinking to show that she is still awesome no matter what.

How to Post a Comment:Using this blog is a great way for students to practice their digital etiquette and internet safety skills. We teach students that it isn't safe to post their full name online. When whole classes respond, they might list their username as "Mrs. Bock's class", because the adult is using judgement to post his/her name online. Similarly, families posting responses might list their family name "The Bock Family" if parents choose.
Students posting by themselves should follow this format when submitting their post: Username: Initials and grade (i.e.: AB, 3rd grade) Email: Type your first and last name here, because it won't show up on the blog but Mrs. Bock will know who is posting! Website: leave this blank Comment: Post your thoughts here. |
