October 11th-15th

 Hello Families, 

This week in Grade 2/3 we have been discussing how good readers are able to make predictions about a book before they even begin to read. When looking at the title of a book, it can usually give us some hints as to what the main problem in the story will be. 

As a class, we looked at the cover of the book "Those Shoes" by Maribeth Boelts. Students came up with their own individual predictions about what will happen in the story by using a storyboard. Then we read the story as a class to see how close our predictions were to the plot of the book. 

Next, students worked in small groups to reflect on what the problem in the book was and how the title connected to that problem.
