Juan Miguel Sees Three

Now that you have finished the story of Juan Miguel, you should be able to synthesize part of the plot to better understand the theme or message of the story.  Synthesizing is how you think about what you read.  I have two questions for you to answer as part of the blog for this week.  Remember to post your opinion with your name and then tomorrow respond to the posts of two other people on this blog. 
Here are the two questions:

1)  What lesson do you think Juan Miguel and the servants learned by the end of the story? 

2)  How are the servants and Juan Miguel similar and different from each other? 

We will talk about the theme when we meet for our next strategy lesson.

    I think that the lesson that they learned is you need to not trick people and tell the truth.And do not lie about who you are and who you want to be. they are similar because well they both trick people.Because Juan Miguel was tricking the king and the servants adn tellin them that he was a wizard.And the servanta tricked the king cause they did not tell him that the thief was Juan Miguel.That is what I think it is.

    i think the main lesson was to not pretend you are something that you are not and to be honest with them. the were the same cause they both tricked and lied to them. they diffrent cause cause jaun miguel was pretending hes a wizard and the servants lied cause they didnt tell the king that they stole the silver

    I think juan migale and the sevents shouldent of stole the silver plates.

    The sevents are surveing the king just like juan migale juan migale is acting like a magishen and a wizard and the servents and in a castle and serving the king.

  18. JackyDecember 14, 2011 at 8:59 AM

    the lesson that they learned was they shouldn't lie.

    Jaun Miguel and the prisoners were the same because they both lied to the King and they're diferent because the three prisoners stole and Jaun Miguel didn't.

    I think that juan miguel learned that you should not lie about something that is not true or did not happen because it mite cause a problem for you or for somebody else.

    Juan miguel and the servants are alike because they dont want to get caut by the king and be punished really hard because juan miguel was lieing and the servants were the ones how stoll all of the kings silver

  24. Leah is so awesomeDecember 15, 2011 at 8:16 AM

    I disagree with paige because it does not matter who you lie to you really should not do it anyway.And the lesson that I think it is. Is you need not to lie because you are probably a good person so do not lie to anyone and do not try to be someone that you are not.I think I think that is what it is ya know what i mean.Okay cool
