Good morning class, today we will be exploring a new story! Are you ready? Cover Looking at the cover, what can you see? Where have you seen this animal? What is the animal doing? What do you think this story is about? The title is Frog on a log. Why do you think they named the story that? First Reading: For each page of the book, the teacher and students will discuss pictures from the book and then the teacher will read the text. The teacher encourages students to make predictions based on the pictures from the book. The teacher would stop at the points of the story where predictions were made and using text of the story, the teacher will ask students if the predictions they made were correct. The teacher may want to take note of some words (bog, log, jog, fog, trot, grinning, foolish, agog) found in the book which might be unfamiliar to some students. The teacher may choose to pause at these words and check students’ understanding of word. The teacher then guides students to discover the meaning of the word through pictorial cues or clues from text.
