Book talk in MI

Our entry ticket today allowed us to recap the vocabulary we had unpicked and worked on over the last few sessions. We worked well in mini crews to read each definition together and match to the correct word. From here we looked at our new vocabulary before text marking in the text as we read. We used a partner read, independent read and echo read today. We also used timers to practise the speed of our reading. We are becoming more confident with this. Our reasons to read helped us to reflect on what we had read and to ensure we had understood the story so far. We made predictions in our exit ticket and are all excited to know what happens next in the story!
