We have been reading The BFG by Roald Dahl.
Mr. Tomalin had a connection to the story. He met Roald Dahl! He came to talk to us about when and how he met him. It was interesting to hear what Roald Dahl was like in real life!
The BFG reminded Mr. Tomalin of something that happened to him ( text to self) and something that he noticed in the world around him (text to world). We put his connections on our connection board.
We added our own connections to The BFG so far and put them on our websites. Readers make connections to help us understand and visualize what they are reading.
