Expand on the Reading

Writing Connection
Have students fold a piece of paper in half. On one half, have them draw a picture of what they like to do in summer. On the other half, have them draw a picture of what they like to do in winter. Then have them write one or two sentences under each picture. If students need support, have them use the pattern: "I like to _____."

Reading Independently
Invite students to reread the book independently or with a partner. Have them alternate reading different pages in the book.

Home Connection
Invite students to take the book home to read with their families.

Assessment

Monitor students’ oral reading to determine the strategies they use. Select one or two students and intervene during their reading to have them read a page or two orally.
Monitor students’ responses during the After Reading discussion to assess their understanding of problem and solution.
Monitor students' responses after reading to determine how well they understand character and identify character traits. Use their completed worksheets to assess how well they can analyze character traits based on character actions in the text.
