The One and Only Ivan: We are thoroughly enjoying The One and Only Ivan. Be sure to ask you child what chapters we’ve covered and discussed each week. We are reading pages 157 – 160 and working on our Ivan booklet this week.
Some of the learning objectives (or WALT as we refer to them in Grade 4; We Are Learning To) and questions that we will cover while reading are:
- Describe in depth a character, setting, or event in a story or drama, drawing on specific details in the text (e.g., a character’s thoughts, words, or actions). Compare and contrast the points of view from which different stories are narrated, including the difference between first- and third-person narrations.
- How does point of view contribute to the authenticity of a story? Write an explanatory text telling how the author uses point of view in the book and how you as the reader were impacted.
- How do authors develop characterization, and how does characterization enhance the reader’s understanding of the character’s personality?
- How does the author use figurative language through the character’s eon?
