Great for a small guided reading group or for accountability when reading independently! This packet should be used as a supplement to the book Animal Tracks by Arthur Dorros. Some of the questions refer directly to the text while teaching strategies to use while reading non-fiction. Three additional pages tie it to science - classifying animals based on outer covering of the body, habitats, and animal diets. Recommended for high achievers in second grade and struggling readers in third grade.

Teaching style
I believe students learn best through guided discovery used often in small groups or partnerships where they are able to discuss and question their own understanding. Being able to talk with their peers before sharing their ideas and own understanding gives all students the opportunity to process what they are learning, change perspectives, and grow their understanding and confidence. Every classroom should be a safe place to make mistakes, so that mistakes become normalized and turned into a means to grow and shine.
