Book talk in MI

Today we started a new text, ‘Africa, Amazing Africa.’ We started the lesson with a silent conversation where we explored the front cover and then the blurb. We then explored features of non fiction texts and played some games using the contents page and glossary. From here we started to unpick some of the vocabulary that will appear in our first few pages. We used pictures to help us with the vocabulary and tried to put the words into context. Tomorrow we will continue our book talk session where we will start reading the text 🙂 We are all eager to explore our new text further!
