April Activities

The focus this month is on legends, and fairy tales. Students will read a variety of these texts from various cultures from around the world. Students compare and contrast well known fairy tales with fractured fairy tales. They will also compare pairs of similar fairy tales from different cultures. Students will transfer and make connections from their reading to look at elements they can include in their own writing of fairy tales, and legends.

Students will explore how to craft better reading responses by working through modelled, shared and independent reading responses. Reading responses will follow the OREO opinion writing model to respond to texts. They will develop success criteria and moderate response samples to build reading response anchors.

Additionally students will explore elements of figurative language suchs as simile and personification. Through various activities connected to the reading and writing activities of the month these figurative language elements will be connected to mentor texts and developed as student integrate this skill into their own independent writing.
