Today we started our first hooked on books reading lesson where we started to explore our new text, ‘African Tales’ We explored the front cover and blurb thinking about what we noticed and we tried to make connections between other texts we had read. We explored and read the text in detail which really engaged us! We all wanted to start reading the book! We then looked at some vocabulary that would appear in the text when we started to read. We thought about definitions of each word and which word class the words belonged to. We then read part of the text using a chorus read, read around the robin as well as reading with our partner. We even started some text marking 🙂
