Instructional Ideas
- Have kids complete the activity as a warm-up before a vocabulary lesson, or for homework
- Complete in a literacy center
Classroom Considerations
- Picture does not match the topic of the passage (piggy bank for the word bank), which could be confusing in a lesson about context clues
Pros
- Versatile for use in most language arts lessons
Cons
- The story doesn't have an ending, as the topic in the second paragraph is different from the first paragraph
