In many places in the world, people go to great lengths to get books to read. This beginning-of-the-year activity uses pictures of people reading in extraordinary situations to stimulate effective listening and speaking using the think-pair-share strategy. Learners read quotes from My Librarian is a Camel to complete T-charts with the carousel strategy. The activity could be used during the first few weeks of school to familiarize your class with the two learning strategies, and to stimulate interest in reading. The lesson plan is well organized and easy to understand. It is part of a larger unit. Please note: Protocol procedures are in additional materials. Also, pictures are not included, but can be easily created.
