And in this case, make the connections prior to reading it with your child to build the interest level. For example, make cookies and talk about will power before reading the chapter "Cookies". Plant seeds and wait for the seeds to grow and then read the chapter "The Garden". I suggest trying the activity prior to reading the book to make the self or real world connection and then you can move on to other Frog and Toad books to make those text to text connections. (Usually we make the connections after reading, but in this case, I think it would make for great conversation during and after reading.) The Frog and Toad books are definitely on my "not to be missed" first grade book list. (Sorry, it has taken me so long to get this comment posted, but the original comment was "lost" when blogger went down a week or so ago.)~MichelleFirst Grade Besthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06792910337735359021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118254745627432547.post-16385828101527872082011-05-11T19:46:08.839-04:002011-05-11T19:46:08.839-04:00I loved Frog and Toad too!
