Sasha and I worked on reading comprehension today. First, she read a short story, "Armadillo's Song." As she read, we discussed homonyms, homographs, and the author's use of onomatopoeia. Sasha answered the comprehension questions accurately, using good test-taking strategies. Next, she read a fable, "The Lion and the Mouse." We discussed the definition of a fable and setting and practiced sequencing the story's events.
