We continued reading in the novel, 'There's a Boy in the Girl's Bathroom, by Louis Sachar. We collaboratively read chapter 3, pages 9-17. Liam was periodically queried about the characters and new vocabulary that was introduced. Vocabulary words included intimidate and flabbergasted. There was a bit of abstraction/symbolism in the chapter, but Liam demonstrated his understanding that some of the characters introduced were stuffed animals and served a purpose - to act as fans of Bradley, the main character, who was disliked by his classmates. I drew two of the nimals on the board and Liam identified the other characters in the story, figuring out their ages based on their grades. - Bradley and his sister are in the fifth and ninth grades, respectively in the story, but Liam remembered that Bradley is in fourth grade, but "should really be in the fifth."Liam followed along as we read but lost place twice and was redirected accordingly. He stated he likes the book and laughed at a few descriptions and situations that he found comical in the chapter.
