In our book talk lessons this week, we have been reading “The Last Bear” by Hannah Gold. We have read the pages of the book and text marked all the important information and unpicked the vocabulary we wasn’t sure of. Crew Thompson are really improving when using the skill reading around the word to unpick the meaning. For example, “skywards” was a word we didn’t understand but when we read around the word and it told us he looked skywards we were able to break it down. We then made a glossary of the key words and wrote the definition.
