Over the last couple of days we read the story "White Socks Only" to help us work on the reading strategy of asking questions. This is another rich text full of lots of opportunities to pause and ask meaningful questions that hep us think deeper about the topic and the author's main messages in the text. I am very impressed with the level of questions many of us are asking and the discussion that arises from the questions we ask... it is like a mini book club in Room 209!
Below is a link of a reading of the story.

Thanks for introducing us to StoryTelling Online - another excellent resource!
ReplyDeleteLots of questions (and confusion - "it just doesn't make sense") are being raised at home about racism. Poignant material evoking deep thoughts!
ReplyDeleteIsn't online story telling great?! We also love listening to books online at www.tumblebooks.com
