Exploring the Book Title

Hello to all SCDSB readers,


We are Year 3/4 students from Joondalup Primary School in Joondalup, Western Australia. We have been reading the Fourteenth Goldfish. Our teacher Ms. Lau is on a teaching exchange. This means a teacher from JPS is now teaching in Simcoe County and Ms. Lau teaches here.

We started the book the same time as you but our school calendar is different so we are still reading the book in class. Our school year begins in February and we have four 10 week terms then 2 weeks holidays at the end of each term. We have summer holidays at Christmas time. We just started term 2.

Our timezone and weather is also opposite from you. We are 12 hours ahead of you and right now it's autumn and soon to be winter in July, but we don't get any snow here just lot of rain.

While reading the book, we wondered why is it called the Fourteenth Goldfish? So Ms. Lau gave us time to rename the book and make a new book cover.


Here are some of our book titles:
- My Grampa is a Teenager
- The Crazy World
- 14 Dead Goldfish
- I Will Live Forever
- Teenage Grampa
- The Science of Jelly Fish
- Jellyfish Magic
- Youth Experiment

What do you think the book should be called?

We can't wait to read the ending, Ms. Lau says that it should explain the title a bit more.
