 Tell me what happened in your book using your own words!  5 W’s and How › Who › What › When › Where › Why › How

 Each week I will give you a Focus Topic for you Reading Response Letter  You will have to make sure the Focus Topic is included in your letter.  This week Focus Topic is opinions.  In your letter you will have to tell me your opinion of your book.  Do you like the story? Why or why not?  Would you recommend this book to a friend?  Could the author have done anything differently?

 Text to Text › This book reminds me of a book I read…  Text to Self › This book reminds me of something that happened in my life…  Text to World › This book reminds me of something that happened in the world.  When making a connection make sure to include how it relates back to the book! › This book reminds me of the time I went strawberry picking with my family. I made this connection because the little boy in the story loved to go strawberry picking with his brother.

 Asking questions helps you understand the text better.  Ask Questions... › Before Reading  Speculate about what might happen in the story  Make predictions › During Reading  to clarify confusion  wonder what will happen next › After Reading  Enhance comprehension  Make connections

 Before closing your letter to me, I want to you leave me with some a closing comment.  Tell me some more!  Tie it all together! › I love to read books like Harry Potter. I like to pretend that I can also do magic. At least while I am reading the book, I can create magic, because I am Harry.
