Evidence cards

 

Students used evidence cards to help pinpoint what part of the text proves their idea about the story. Students are learning to interact with the text and refer to its content for connections.

Stand tall for your belief

We tuned into beliefs when we listened to Mrs Phillips' read a story about a girl who stood tall for her beliefs.  We broke into two groups and searched for the meaning of the word 'believe'. Some used Google, another couple looked up the word in a dictionary, and yet another wrote a definition based on her own experiences. We focused on different parts of the story and cited the pages and pictures to prove our ideas.
