Red Bud Elementary 3rd grade students in Mrs. Carden’s class worked together with partners to compare and contrast two stories. When they finished, they continued exploring the authors in Epic on their iPads.
Students used a Venn diagram to organize their thinking as they looked closely at characters, setting, plot, and events. This activity helped students build reading comprehension skills while practicing how to explain similarities and differences between texts.
It was a great example of collaboration, critical thinking, and strong literacy work at RBES.
