How is your class structured? Each lesson will consist of a video where the teacher reads aloud the illustrated chapter book. Each video should ideally last around 20-45 minutes and will include students completing an engaging activity as we read. Students will be able to see the illustrations and words as we read. After watching the video, students will be given a variety comprehension activities about each book including book reviews, comic strip creation, code breakers and more! Students will participate during the activity throughout the video lesson and the comprehension activities that follow. Optional: Students can submit their work through photo or video. I will send feedback in 24-48 hours (Monday-Friday).
