[MOSAIC] teaching strategies-Charlotte's Web

[Celeste]

For me, reading Charlotte's Web is like visiting an old friend. I  
tell my students about my third grade teacher reading it to me. Most  
of my second grade students have seen the cartoon version of the book  
and many have now seen the movie. We are currently reading it  
together -- each child has a copy of the book and follow along as I  
read aloud.

One thing I do is to encourage them to use their own schema --  
experiences & watching the movies -- to visualize what we are reading  
or to create movies in their minds.

Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is a mystery.
Today is a gift,
That's why it's called the present
