Connections Text to Self, Text to Text, Text to World

All Freebies

Kids need to make connections as they read. They LOVE writing about themselves, so connecting with Text to Self is usually easy. A boy makes the winning point in a basketball game, in a story you’re reading aloud to your class, and you can bet that one of your students will jump out of his seat shouting,  “I did that! I did that!”

The other connections are a little more challenging, so it’s important to give examples of them. Connections to the world, can be modified to connecting a problem in their town, with something in a book they’re reading. Small groups are perfect for connection brainstorming. It makes them THINK about what they’re reading and what books they’ve already read.

Best,
