#GRAWildRobot Reflection
categories: Literacy
A big part of participating in GRA is discussing the text, sharing our thoughts about the characters’ actions and inferring themes and making predictions about what might happen next. How is this different to how we usually interact with texts in the classroom, you ask?
WELL, we share this thinking with classes GLOBALLY with classes from around the wordl reading the same book!
Here is our first connection! Welcome to Ms Larson’s class!
Students, watch each other’s videos and try to guess which city each class is from.

Leave a comment with your response to this question:
How is Roz changing since first washing ashore on the island? What is happening to her mindset, her emotions, and how she is adapting to her environment? Give examples to explain your answer.

October 12, 2017 at 7:33 pm (7 years ago)hello,
this is jake i think that the wild robot is soon going to be able to thrive without anything because he adapted using other animals for example he copied the chameleon’s camouflage and that’s what I think. from Jake
jack
October 12, 2017 at 7:35 pm (7 years ago)she is learning how to survive. like when the storm came she could survive in the storm.

Eddie
October 16, 2017 at 3:57 am (7 years ago)Hi Ashton,
I think roz is 5 or 6 because she has just started learning.I also think the animals don’t like Roz because they have never seen her before.
How old do you think Roz is?
( By the way, Roz is a girl)

October 16, 2017 at 4:00 am (7 years ago)Hi Ella,
I think that Roz adapts because she copies the animals. The reson why she copies is because our class thinks that shes 7 or 6 years old.

October 16, 2017 at 4:02 am (7 years ago)Hi Ella,
I am Dom from 4T! I am also excited to speak with you and your class. I really like The Wild Robot and I can’t wait to read more.
My favourite part is whenshe found the goose egg. I agree with you with your description of ADAPTATION. It is when you got into a different setting and you change your ways to fit in.
What is your favourite part of The Wild Robots.
From Dom
Mason
October 12, 2017 at 7:45 pm (7 years ago)Roz’s mindset is changing. For example: how she thinks and how she cares. She saw chameleon camouflage so roz did the same thing.
edwardcbgs
October 16, 2017 at 3:49 am (7 years ago)Hi Mason,
Since Roz washed up on the shore, she has been adapting and changing. She has learned to speak the animal languages and has been smarter about taking care of herself. If you think about it since Roz was first on the island she has been getting a lot less injuries. I think that she is learning from the animals. Eg. Roz learned how to climb up the cliff by looking at the crab.
How do you think Roz has learned the animal languages so well?
From Edward
Gabrielle.G
October 12, 2017 at 7:47 pm (7 years ago)Her brain changing, for an example she saw animals and now she is thinking like the animals do. Robots don’t have emotions for an example, she is helping animals but I’m not sure if she is feeling emotions or if she is just helping animals because that is what her computer brain tells her to do.
Harrison
October 12, 2017 at 7:47 pm (7 years ago)she is starting to observe the forest and the animals. for example she was watching a opossum play dead and she tried to learn and copy the opossum. robots don’t have emotions. but she is caring and helping. for example she help a egg whose parents died.
Celia H.
October 12, 2017 at 7:48 pm (7 years ago)Hello I am Celia,
When Roz first got there she didn’t know anything. But now she’s learned a lot by watching the other animals. For example, she saw the opossum play dead so the fox wouldn’t want to eat it. She learned that she could play dead if she is getting attacked.
alicecbgs
October 16, 2017 at 3:54 am (7 years ago)Hi Celia,
I also think that she has adapted by looking at her peers. She has learnt that if other animals succeed when doing certain things that she could try them herself.
I think that your comment was very well-written and you used correct punctuation like full stops (periods) and capital letters. I was surprised that there was some really good comments that your class wrote seeing as you haven’t done any before.
What is your favourite part of the book so far?
From Alice 4T
Ellis H
October 12, 2017 at 7:48 pm (7 years ago)I think rozs mindset is adaptation by watching different animals like the opossum she learned how she can protect self by learning to play dead and make it so the pretenders wont eat her in the wiold
Brianna
October 12, 2017 at 7:49 pm (7 years ago)roz has changed a lot in many way since she arrived island.
in the beginning her emotions were different by all of the things that shes bin watching some animals. she has bin helping some animals like a fox and a bird. one way she changed was by looking at animals survive.
huntercbgs
October 16, 2017 at 3:44 am (7 years ago)Hi Brianna
I agree with you. Roz has changed a lot since she came to the island. She has figured out how to live on the island. She use a lot of different techniques. What techniques do you think she uses most?
Bye
Hunter
Isa
October 12, 2017 at 7:50 pm (7 years ago)Roz has changed a lot since she arrived on the island.In the beginning she was all new she had no idea how to do things.For example she didn’t know how to survive but now she watched animals and her brain is changing.She watched a gosling because her nest broke and the baby gosling was falling so roz saved it.
Parker
October 12, 2017 at 7:52 pm (7 years ago)Roz has changes by learning how to talk to animals. She watched and listened to the birds and then tried to copy them.
Abi
October 12, 2017 at 7:53 pm (7 years ago)She is adapting to where she is by watching and coping the animals like stick bug.
tobiecbgs
October 16, 2017 at 3:47 am (7 years ago)Hi Abi,
The Wild Robot is a really good book for GRA and some people like to do what Roz they copies people to learn things.
What has been your favourite part?
Happy learning
From Tobie
Tiernan
October 12, 2017 at 7:55 pm (7 years ago)Roz has changed by learning to camouflage. She saw the stick bug on the stick and copied it.
Harper g
October 12, 2017 at 7:58 pm (7 years ago)Can I get a hoya! I think that roz does have emotions even though robots don’t have emotions because she cared for the fox when he was spiked by the porcupine and the goose’s egg. she cares for all the animals and not just for herself.She helps others first and then helps herself.
Lachlan
October 16, 2017 at 3:44 am (7 years ago)Hello Harper,
I agree with you about Ros caring about everything.
see you later For now

Jessica
October 12, 2017 at 7:59 pm (7 years ago)Ros has changed a lot in many ways since she arrived on the island in the beginning in the beginning
she wanted to communicate with animals and survive techniques now she adapt by learning some of the survival and other stuff one other way she changed is she can communicate with animals for example when she tried to camifluch herself she listened and to the animals and understand it
and survive
Jaime
October 12, 2017 at 8:01 pm (7 years ago)Roz was copying the animals.that’s how she learning to talk to the animals.like the opossum when he played dead, she realized that was a good strategy to stay safe in the wild.
Kayla S
October 12, 2017 at 8:06 pm (7 years ago)Hi! My name is Kayla and i’m super excited to chat with you! Anyway lets talk about the book. In the Wild Robot,Rozes mind set changed because she has been watching animal like for example she watched the twig bug blending in with its natural habitat. Her emotions….. well……..robots don’t really have emotions but her emotions changed a little, she cares, and learns how to speak to animals. She adapts to her environment because she watches other animals and how they survive and she blends in.I enjoyed writing this to you! I hope you enjoyed! Bye!
Georgia
October 16, 2017 at 3:45 am (7 years ago)Hi Kayla S,
Your right about robots and how they can not process emotions because, they can not think for themselves because they do what they are programed to do just like like Roz. She also is making friends although some of the animals think she is MONSTER/BEAST. What do you think about how Roz is making friends but they think he is still a beast?
Georgia

October 16, 2017 at 3:52 am (7 years ago)Hi Kayla S,
I am also super excited to be chatting with you! So our class have read up to when Roz takes the little gosling to the other goose in the lake and is asking for advice, and whats suprising is that the animals like the fox and the owl actually helped her by saying you should talk to the owl or you should talk to the fox. Hopefully you have been enjoying the book also what is your favourite part of the book so far?
Bye for now from Izzy!

October 16, 2017 at 3:54 am (7 years ago)Hi Kayla,
My name is Kara and I am in Year 4. I can’t wait to connect with you and your class.
Let me talk to you abot the book, The Wild Robot. I think Roz is changing because she is acting like different animals which means her survival is improving. As she is a robot she started with no emotions, but now because all the other animals are showing their emotions, I think Roz is starting to act and have the instincts like a human being. I think this because, Roz cares about the gosling, the fox and when the animals all left her.
What chapter is your class up to?
See you later,
Kara.

October 16, 2017 at 3:55 am (7 years ago)Hi Kayla,
My name is Steph and I am also really excited to be sharing our blog with you.
I agree with you that robots don’t have emotions but, I feel like Ros does because she cares about the other animals (especially the goose egg). Ros has changed since she got there, because she has been copying other animals, like playing dead like the possum.
I think that she is trying to blend in, except the other animals don’t like Ros, except for the fox.
What is your favourite part of the book, why?
Bye for now, Steph
ryancbgs
October 16, 2017 at 3:56 am (7 years ago)Dear Kayla
My name is Ryan I find that Roz is learning from the animals and learning how to talk to the animals.
I know that you are right and that she blends in to survive and she is aldo learning the animals day to day lives. She blends in with the trees and becomes friends with a oposm.
I have a question whose your favourite animal?
From Ryan
serenecbgs
October 16, 2017 at 3:56 am (7 years ago)Hi Kayla S,
My name is Serene and I’m in year 4. I also can’t wait to connect with your class. Now, about The Wild Robot.
At first, Roz was finding it hard to adapt to the new environment but then she starts copying the animals and learning from them. Roz couldn’t understand the animals but she started to observe the animals and learnt their language. Roz is now kind of feeling emotions because she cares about the gosling.
I can say that because she didn’t just leave the gosling egg, she was willing to take care of Bright Bell.
Do you think Bright Bell will help Roz with her friendships and if yes, why? If not, why?
I can’t wait to connect with you!
Bye,
Serene.

October 16, 2017 at 3:58 am (7 years ago)Hi Kayla,
My name is Mia
I really like how you started your comment.
I agree with what you said. Robots don’t really have emotions.
I think that Roz is 5 or 6 years old because roz copies what everyone does.
How old do you think roz is and what is your favourite part so far?

October 16, 2017 at 3:58 am (7 years ago)Hi Kayla,
My name is Milly and I agree with you when you say that robots don’t feel emotions and i’m impressed with the way that Roz has adapted to the new enviroment. I infer that Roz will convice all the animals that she is not a monster but I to me the owl seems stubborn and I don’t think she’ll change her mind.
What has been your favourite part?
Bye for now,
Milly
Sienna
October 16, 2017 at 4:04 am (7 years ago)Hey Kayla,
I am loving The Wild Robot right now! I think Roz is about 7 years old because she is learning off other animals, like for example Roz sees the Stick Instect camouflaging and then Roz starts to learn how to camouflage. I can’t wait to read more of The Wild Robot.
From Sienna

October 16, 2017 at 4:04 am (7 years ago)Hi Kayla, I’m Eliza from 4T. I agree with you, she has been adapting to the conditions and the environment on the island, learning, changing and understanding the language of the animals. What is your favourite bit so far?
