We have been using a video clip from Finding Nemo to practice identifying Aha Moments and Contrasts and Contradictions. We have had lots of discussions about how the purpose of learning these sign posts is to get us to learn to THINK while we read. It is one thing to notice a contrast and contradiction, but if you don't stop reading and ask yourself why the character might be behaving this way, then you are not going to be going any deeper into the text.
Please make sure your child is reading 30 minutes each night and bringing their book back into school each day. They should be reading the same book here at school and at home.
