Hey parents! Sorry it's taken me so long to post again. This long weekend has been hard to get over! :) Anyway, here is a reading comprehension strategy that we used last week to assess the students on what they remembered from our story, Pig in a Wig. As you can see, I wrote various questions on different panels of a beach ball and after the students read the story, they got in a circle and tossed or rolled the ball (lightly of course!) to another group member. Whichever question the student's right hand landed on, they were instructed to answer.
This worked out well until the marker started rubbing off on students' hands... so if you are attempting to use this in your home or classroom do NOT and I repeat do NOT use Vis A Vis markers on a beach ball! :) Let's just say that I will be amending this activity when we use it again! Even though the kids' hands got a little bit messy during this activity, I can honestly say that they were engaged and truly thinking about the story and answering the questions to the best of their ability!
