Text to Text Connections
Text to Text Connections
When we read, we are often reminded of similar ideas or characters in other books we have read.
As you read Dear Mrs LaRue, could you make any connections to any of the other stories read so far this year, or any other stories that you know?
Think about the book Fox by Margaret Wild, that we read at the beginning of the year, think about other stories such as Three Little Pigs, Red Riding Hood, Fantastic Mr Fox by Roald Dahl, and any other Fox stories and see what connections you can make between these different stories. We can use sentences like these below when we are making connections between different stories.
It reminds me of when I read … because …
… is like … in another book I read when/because …
What characteristics do we think of with foxes? Do they show perseverance? Are all their characteristics good ones, and ones we should copy? Is it good to be sly?
