Tuesday by David Wiesner
Recommended Grades: 3-5
A nearly wordless picture book depicting how frogs behave one Tuesday night.
Lesson Idea:
Comprehension Strategies
Making Inferences: Read aloud the first half of Tuesday. As you read aloud, model how to make inferences by inferring what the frogs are doing on this Tuesday night. Explain what an inference is and how they help us understand what we read. Create a t-chart that has two columns (What the picture shows/Inference). As you read aloud, model how to fill out the t-chart. After reading aloud the first half, provide an opportunity for students to work with partners to complete the second half with a t-chart.
