This Caldecott Honor and ALA Notable Book by Vera B Williams tells the story of a girl and her family who save coins in a jar to buy the best chair ever. With strong themes of resilience, community, and family this book is perfect for any classroom. This RF would best be used as a GR. http://www.cpalms.org/Public/PreviewResourceLesson/Preview/62637 this goes to a lesson plan on CPALMs which includes a section on guided reading! #ucflaw3414f17

Stone Soup | Marcia Brown

pick

This was one of my favorite TL stories as a kid! It's about three hungry soldiers and their journey to make "stone soup". When the villagers saw the soldiers coming, they hid all of their food. After coming up empty handed, the soldiers said they were going to make stone soup but they needed some ingredients from the villagers first. This adaption has been awarded the Caldecott honor and can be utilized in the classroom as a RA. #ucflaw3414f17

cheyennewilliams https://www.scholastic.com/teachers/blog-posts/shari-carter/stone-soup-lesson-sh... This link will take you to a list of writing, compare/contrast, and readers theater activities related to the book. I really liked the compare and contrast activity where students first listen to the teacher read two versions of Stone Soup (it's TL so there are multiple versions) and then create a Venn diagram to compare and contrast the two books.

cheyennewilliams UDL strategy 3.2: highlight patterns, critical features, big ideas, and relationships. As you read the two different versions be sure to point out any drastic differences. As students complete the Venn diagram make sure to verbally walk them through the stories and help them to identify any patterns or commonalities between the two. (edited) 7y

cheyennewilliams EL strategy 45: use Venn diagrams to contrast and compare activities. In this lesson students will use Venn diagrams, either written or illustrated, to compare and contrast the two different versions/read-alouds of Stone Soup. It will help students to visually organize key points from the reading so that they can develop a better understanding and comprehension of the story. 7y
