Books!
The greatest writers are also typically the greatest readers. We do not gain great vocabularies or even great ideas all on our own. Writers read so we are going to talk about some of our favorite writers!
My favorite books include The Count of Monte Cristo, Pride & Prejudice, and To Kill a Mockingbird.
Personal Discussion
1. What kind of books do you like best? Why?
2. Who are some of your favorite authors? What do you like about their books?
3. Have you seen any plays? Do you realize that plays are written by someone? What about nursery rhymes? Do you realize that nursery rhymes are a kind of poetry?
4. What was your favorite children's story? Why? Was it read to you by someone in your family or by a teacher? Did you like the pictures found in the story? Bring it in to share with the class!!
