Response to Emily's Mini Lesson

After reading your lesson and reflection, I wish I had done a lesson similar to this one. Especially because I have never seen my MT address predicting. But I thought your lesson was well thought out and totally addressed the aspect of literacy you wanted to focus on. I haven't read this book, but the guesses by the students at the beginning are really cute. In your reflection I would have liked to hear more about what actually happened once you started reading the story and how did you talk about the predictions after you finished the story? But other than that I really like this mini-lesson!
