3S Word Choice & Wordless Books

Mrs. Stewart's gr. 3's were learning about authors and their writing styles, and today they focused on Chris Van Allsburg.  Students compared Van Allsburg's style to Roald Dahl's and Megan Macdonald's styles.  After reading "Ben's Dream" and brainstorming ideas for words to write on the pages, students worked in groups writing a story to go with the "wordless hockey story pictures". 

Like all of our staff, Mrs. Stewart uses the GANAG lesson plan format.  For more information on this style of lesson plan, refer to the book "Improving Student Learning One Teacher at a Time".
