Blog 'bout a Book Sept 3rd
Hey Everyone!!! Time to blog about a book you have been reading. Actually it does not have to be a book. It can be anything you have read in the last week during your 20 minutes of reading. A book, article, contest form, cereal box, menu, magazine, newspaper, an Internet article, an online book, or just about anything you can read count as 20 minutes of reading.
Now it is time to tell me about what you have read.
We have been learning about how to monitor our comprehension, or "STOP, what did we just read?" One of the things we are learning is that if you ask questions about what you are reading, while you are reading, you will understand it better.
SO.... Tell me :
1. The title of something you have read
2. Tell me a little about what you read
3. Write 2 questions you have about your reading
Now it is time to tell me about what you have read.
