Lesson 7
Reflect on Your Reading
The purpose of this lesson is to review what you have done so far, and to practise what you have learned about creating funny stories.
Read page 76 in Literacy in Action 4B to review what you have done so far in this unit. You have...
- read and talked about funny stories
- thought about what makes a story funny, and found out how people enjoy funny stories differently
- practised the predict, infer, connect reading strategy while you were reading
- noted the predictions, inferences, and connections you found in stories
- used context clues to determine the meaning of new words
Strategies and
Skills
Now it's time to think about the strategies and skills you've used. How has the predict, infer, connect strategy helped you?
- Does any one part of the strategy work best for you?
- Does combining the three parts of the strategy help you understand the readings better?
- Do you find writing your predictions and inferences more helpful than just thinking about them?
- Do you usually make connections to other literature, or your life?
