Shared Reading

For a shared reading activity I read aloud to the students The Enormous Carrot by Vladimir Vagin. The students had to make a prediction to anticipate the ending of the story, associate vocabulary words and their meanings, and respond to literature. To evaluate the students on this lesson I listened to the students use a new vocabulary word in a sentence, and examined each students' drawing of their prediction to the ending of the story. The students loved this story. The lesson had great student interaction. I read this story to the students before they left for spring break. It was great timing because it went along with the theme of Easter.Click here to read more about this lesson
