Do you
wish there was an easier way to get your work done? Look no further, because Dan Gutman's
\"Homework Machine\" activities are here to save the day!

Dan Gutman's popular children's book, \"Homework Machine,\" tells the story of four unlikely
friends who create a machine that can complete all of their homework assignments for them. While
the concept may seem far-fetched, the book offers a fun and imaginative way to get kids excited
about completing their own homework.

But why stop at just reading the book? With our \"Homework Machine\" activities, you can bring the
story to life and engage your child in a variety of fun and educational tasks.

Activity 1: Build Your Own Homework Machine


What better way to get your child excited about homework than by building their very own
homework machine? Using recycled materials and some basic crafting supplies, you and your child
can create a mini version of the machine from the book. This activity not only encourages creativity,
but also teaches kids about the importance of reusing and repurposing materials.

Activity 2: Design Your Own Homework Assignments


In the book, the homework machine is able to complete any assignment, no matter how difficult.
Challenge your child to come up with their own unique and challenging homework assignments for
the machine to complete. This activity allows kids to think outside the box and use their imagination
to create fun and engaging tasks.

Activity 3: Write a Sequel


After reading \"Homework Machine,\" have your child write their own sequel to the story. Encourage
them to come up with their own characters and plot twists, and see where their imagination takes
them. This activity not only promotes creative writing skills, but also allows kids to continue the
story in a way that is meaningful to them.

I remember one time this reality TV show was hot and everybody was talking about it. There was a
kid in the D squad that invented a homework machine and it was Brenton. There is a reason there is
an age requirement for that type of piercing and this is too young. I had been a student teacher in
Ohio, and I was hoping to get a job somewhere in the west, preferably near a national park. What
neither can predict is that Ulysses the squirrel has been born anew, with powers of strength, flight,
and misspelled poetry. The 4 main characters are Sam, Judy, Brenton and Kelsey. There are touches
of humor in the way the four classmates talk about themselves and one another. The story features
four fifth graders from Grand Canyon, Arizona and their initial grouping is reminiscent of the
randomness with which the student characters in The Breakfast Club are brought together. You
know, like they'll get T-shirts with cool logos on them or they'll get a cool bike or listen to cool
music. If everybody was cool, everybody would be the same. Report this resource to let us know if

quite liked the way this ended. For middle-graders, I write the baseball card adventure series, about
a boy who has the power to travel through time using a baseball card like a time machine. Teachers
will love the fact that it shows how the kids mature and that you can make friends with the most
unlikely people. But it's nice in a way, because we have the canyon to ourselves. Videos Help others

to bond, especially after Sam's father is killed in combat. Bayangkan saja kalau dulu semasa sekolah

I try so hard all the time and he never seemed like he was trying at all. I would recommend this book

trees and does controlled burns to prevent forest fires. I liked how two of the characters were kind of
smarty pants and the others kind of just went with the flow. He probably had so many more
important things on his mind that he couldn't be bothered with something as trivial as combing his
hair. Kelsey, well, she just didn't seem to care about anything, and I found it very hard to relate to
her because I care so much about everything. Told in alternating voices as all the participants make
statements to the Grand Canyon Police, the story unfolds in intriguing fashion. I mean just to bring
my grade up I have to spend at least two hours on my homework. The machine actually works, and
Kelsey, Sam, and Judy convince him to let them use it. It's just homework. Miss Rasmussen, fifth-
grade teacher Compared to other teachers, I don't even really assign that much homework. She and
the others just did a dumb thing and they got caught. If a particular answer is not available on the
hard drive then have the computer automatically retrieve cross-checked solutions online. Miss
Wineberg. Sigh. Apparently author Dan Gutman is so accurate in his descriptions of fifth grade life
that a fellow professor I know uses the book in his college education class and has his students
analyze the various interactions. And now this is going to be on my permanent record, probably for
the rest of my life. For their first homework assignment of the year, I asked everyone to write his or
her feelings about it. Brenton is a genius and has invented, programed and used a homework
machine. You see Brenton was different from the day he was born, he never cried as a baby, and
wrote his first piece of music when he was six. And now this is going to be on my permanent record,
probably for the rest of my life. For an optimal experience, please switch to the latest version of

a nonfiction author dealing mostly with sports for adults and young readers, Gutman has
concentrated on juvenile fiction since 1995. THE HOMEWORK MACHINE is presented in the

They may not be cool themselves, but they make themselves cool by having cool stuff or hanging
around with cool people. Before long, members of the D Squad, as they are called at school are
getting strange Instant Messages from a shady guy named Milner; their teacher, Miss Rasmussen, is
calling private meetings with each of them and giving them pop tests that they are failing; and
someone has leaked the possibility of a homework machine to the school newspaper. I believe there
are other stories in this series, but I quite liked the way this ended.
I remember the time that gambler from L.A. lost a bet in Las Vegas, and his friends drove him up
here. Sam and Kelsey on the other hand really need the machine. There is one element of the story
that I could have done without, but I won't give it away. 2 likes Like Comment Natali 479 reviews

classmates talk about themselves and one another. THE HOMEWORK MACHINE is presented in
the format of characters taking turns narrating into a recording device the progression of events that
have taken place over the past school year. A boy named John sees this and he is wondering what
was happening. Not much real intensity, no poverty, satisfying ending, plenty of heart. Do you know
how upset my parents were when they found out. Meet the D Squad, a foursome of fifth graders at
the Grand Canyon School made up of a geek, a class clown, a teacher's pet, and a slacker. I always
thought Snik made a big deal out of nothing. Then Brenton let's his little seceret slip and tells Sam
about the homework machine. We are one of the few African-American families living in this area.
My husband requested a transfer, and that's what brought us here. Sam, son of an army dad, also
plays a lot of chess throughout, which we liked hearing about as my son too enjoys playing chess.
Do you have any idea of how humiliating this entire ordeal has been for me. At first, they are
delighted with their freedom, but things quickly get out of hand. And attention is exactly what you
don't want when you are keeping a secret. I say that's interesting, even though I really don't think it's
all that interesting. I would recommend this book to not many people because I don't think many
people would get it like I did. Kelsey lost her dad long ago and has been clamping down on her
emotions ever since. The dynamics within the group are stressful as well. Cosmetic business plan

both books arrived safely and in good time. The next thing we knew, we had to go talk to the police.
I saw it coming a chapter or two before, but I was still kind of surprised that he went there. Imagine:
having a machine (computer) that you feed your homework into and it gives you the answer IN
YOUR OWN HANDWRITING. But for the sake of my middle school friends' sanity and social
lives, teachers should remember to have their students write about THE HOMEWORK MACHINE
during rather than after school.
