This week we have been working on comparing and contrasting characters from different books. We started out by comparing and contrasting the main character from Chrysanthemum written by Kevin Henkes and the main character from Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse also written by Kevin Henkes. We found ways that these two characters were the same and how they were different.
Then, we read the books The Tale of the Three Little Pigs retold by Katherine Mead and the book The True Story of the 3 Little Pigs! as told by Jon Scieszka. We worked on comparing and contrasting the wolf that was present in each of these books. The students did a fantastic job pointing out similarities and differences between these two books.
