Reading brainstorm

teaching unit plan (click on book cover above)


After you have brainstormed words/phrases/quotes etc about the story 'buddy" complete this reflection on your e-journal....


  1. get someone to take a photo of you and the novel

  2. upload the photo to voicethread and record your reflection

Reflection #1...



  • What did you enjoy about the novel "Buddy"

  • What key messages do you think the author wanted the reader to understand?

  • What questions do you have for the author?

Reflection #2... (record on a second recording)



  • What went well in your literature discussions?

  • What did you do well? (be specific- e.g; share my ideas, use evidence from the text)

  • Next time you are part of a literature circle what will you do differently?
