Our thoughts on Because of Winn-Dixie

The students had so much to say and share when we read Because of Winn-Dixie... Here is a peek at some of our responses!
Our character study of Opal

Students drew pictures to represent some of Opal's characteristics!

Connections, lists and compare and contrasting! We can do it all.

Questioning while we read is so important. Here are some examples of our thin and thick questions. These responses are about a mistake the students have made in the past. Uh oh... 

Students had to find evidence in the story to support their pictures.
 


These students believed Opal had a big heart.

A connection response to Winn-Dixie howling.
