Because of Mr. Terupt

 

imgresThe best days of school are the ones where you actually have fun learning. That’s everyday in Mr.Terupt’s class. The book because of Mr. Terupt was written by Rob Buyea. The story is about a fifth grade teacher at  the Snow Hill School who has an interesting class. Jessica, Alexia, Peter, Danielle, Luke, Anna and Jeffery are all very different but they all like their teacher. One day, they get to play in the snow because the students had been on good behavior. Things get out of control and something terrible happens.

 

Mr. Terupt is kind, fun and creative. I think he is kind because he treats everyone equally and is never unfair. He is fun because he does cool learning activities like the dollar word project. Mr. Terupt assigned every letter in the alphabet a number, and the students had to create a word that added to one hundred. I also think he is creative because he thinks of unique ways to teach. One of my favorite parts of the book is when the kids go to the collaborative center. The collaborative center is a class for kids with special needs. I like it because all the students get along. Another interesting part of the book is the last day of school. I like this part because some really cool things happen  (I can’t tell you because it will spoil the ending).


I really, really liked the book. I enjoyed it because it is something that could happen in real life, but the author’s adds a twist. I think that it is very interesting and you should read it. There is a sequel to this book that I also read and it was really good as well. I give this book a 5 star rating.
