An outstanding resource. I especially loved the observations/inferences based on the book cover. That turned out to be so much more revealing that I ever would have noticed!

Thank you! I am so happy that it worked well for you and your students! I am always amazed at how many details and inferences the kids pull from the book cover. It is such a great way for kids to gain some background knowledge before diving into the book. Thank you!

THE FIRST PAGE IS A LITTLE CRAMPED. LOVED THE SCAFFOLDING AND THE GRAPHIC ORGANIZER.

So that you can make it all on one page, I suggest shrinking the clipart.

I cannot open this file. Do you have it in any other format? I do not have a smart board. Thanks.

Hello! I made this presentation/ activity using the SmartBoard program. There are several activities within the presentation that utilize specific SmartBoard applications. I have no idea how to transfer that to another program. Sorry. There maybe an "express" version of the SmartBoard program you can find online for free. I know when I am using their website that is one option to choose when viewing some sample lesson on my computer that does not have the SmartBoard program loaded. Hope that helps.
