I had the pleasure of joining Mrs. Dunn's Grade 2/3/4 class in Inglis today. They just finished their Global Read Aloud novel, Fenway and Hattie by Victoria J. Coe. This wonderful book is written from the perspective of a dog named Fenway. Many young readers around Park West School division have enjoyed Fenway's stories about his life with his owner, Hattie. Today, Mrs. Dunn's class tried taking Fenway's perspective just like Victoria J. Coe did when she wrote this book. Each student contributed a clip to the awesome video below. These students demonstrated that they know Fenway very well!
We started with a list of things we know about Fenway.
Then we practiced taking Fenway's perspective. Finally, we recorded our voices using the ChatterPix app. The grade 2/3/4s are excited to share their work with their Global Read Aloud partner class and the readers of this blog!
