Comprehension ConnectionDescription
Just a Dream is a great book to use to celebrate Earth Day, as a connection with your ecology unit, or for comprehension skill modeling. Chris VanAllsburg's detailed illustrations provide excellent opportunities for making inferences and theme extension, but the story details demonstrate his author's craft. This great title works well as a mentor text for writing or for guided reading.
