Let's keep track of our read alouds and comprehension instruction over the course of the year.

Mercy Watson --use post-its to share reactions and thinking voice

Recess Queen --use what we know from the story to predict what will happen

The Dumb Bunnies Go to the Zoo by Dav Pilkey --stop and ask is this part important, retell the important parts from the plot

Henry and Mudge 

Patches Lost and Found --making connections  (My sweet 2nd graders LOVE this book!) 

Twister by ?  --get ready to read by thinking about what we know about the NF topic or subject; 2nd part we read --notice new information while we read

A Turkey For Thanksgiving by Eve Bunting --notice characters' problems and actions to infer (This is a great mentor text for the 2nd grade November unit of study --Character's Go On Journeys because the main character goes on a physical journey to solve their problem

Let's keep it going!
