11/16

After reading for 20 minutes, share with us what reading strategy you used while reading.  You may use and comment on any of the following strategies:

  1. Connections (text to self, text to text, text to world)
  2. Mental Images (What words helped you create a picture?)
  3. Context Clues (What word was new or beautiful for you?  What words in the book helped you discover the meaning of that word?)
  4. Fact and Opinion (Give evidence to support if the sentence from your story is a fact or an opinion.)
  5. Character Development (Provide examples to show how your character's emotions are changing in the story.)
