[MOSAIC] Books for Text to text connections

[JAprilFox at aol.com]

Hi!
Some ways to do T-T is to read two diff. versions of a fairytale or folktale
and compare them. Also, you can find books that are in a series and compare 
them such as the books about Henry and Mudge or Nate the Great. My students 
love to find the similarities bet. the texts. I also use picture books. I find 
two books that have similar titles, characters, settings, or events. I read them 
aloud and we compare them. Then, I make a photocopy of the book's covers and 
hang them around my room. In this way, we can easily make more connections as 
the months progress and more books are read.The photos are constant reminders!
