11/7

After your 20 minutes of reading, please record the title and author of your book.  Then, write and tell me either a fact or opinion from your story.  Please tell me how you know the statement is a fact or an opinion.

EAMPLE:

I read Knots in my Yo, Yo String by Jerry Spinelli. 

“Every kid wants to be a bad kid.”  I know that this sentence from the story is the author’s opinion because there is no evidence to support that every kid in the world wants to be a bad kid.

10/27 READ CAREFULLY!

Readers,
We have been talking about FACTS in our reading class.  After reading for 20 minutes, record the title and author of your book in the comment section.  THEN, record at least one fact from your book.

Examples to guide you:
FICTION:
Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day by Judith Viorst
Alexander got gum stuck in his hair.

NON-FICTION:
Bats by Nancy Shaw
The two-inch long ears of the long-eared bat are almost as big as its body.
