This is something we often ask students to think about. Sometimes readers make connections when they read. If you want to provide extra support during this lesson, you could model through interactive writing. This is an option if you want to save paper and/or keep the reading responses together throughout the year. This picture shows the reading response prompt in a journal. This is a great time to talk about what the author and illustrator do to help make the meaning clear. With the inferring lesson plan, we teach students that readers infer to help them understand what is happening in a book. This second-grade class used both retell strips with pictures and words for their independent retell. Once the retell is completed in whole group, students can create their own retell strip.ĭifferentiated retell cards are available, so this activity is appropriate for kindergarten through second grade. Story retell cards are provided so you can work as a whole class creating a retelling of the story. On day 2, read the story again and focus on retelling. They like finding out if their prediction was accurate or if they were totally surprised! Retelling the Story After students make their predictions, finish reading the story to reveal what happens.Īfter finishing the book, students respond again and confirm what truly did happen in the story. For this lesson, teach students that readers take clues from the text and make a smart guess about what will happen in the story. We recommend having a copy of the book to refer to throughout the week, but here is a video if you need it.Īfter the first read, students practice making predictions about the story. Starting on day 1, read the story to your class for the first time. Students practice a variety of reading comprehension skills and strategies throughout the week of lessons and activities. Differentiated response options are available, as well. We’ve created no-prep lesson plans for this great story! So, all you do is print and teach! Activities are aligned for kindergarten, first, and second grade. This is an excellent story to read at any time throughout the school year! Regardless of when you choose to read it, this story is a great reminder for students to make everyone feel welcome. Justin, a new student, is introduced to the class and things seem to turn around for Brian. Brian is a quiet student and his classmates don’t notice him much. The Invisible Boy, written by Trudy Ludwig, is a touching story about a little boy named Brian. Vocabulary, grammar, sentence study, and a craft, too!
