Comparing and Contrasting

We are learning all about comparing and contrasting books! To end our unit, we read three books that belong to a series of books about a character named Alexander. We read, "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day." We then read two more books in the series "Alexander Who's Not (Do you hear me? I mean it!) Going to Move" and "Alexander, Who Used to Be Rich Last Sunday."

We collaborated in groups with a group leader, recorder, and presenter to make a poster comparing and contrasting the two books in this series. 

We compared and contrasted the main characters, the setting, and the plot. Here are some of our findings:

-Alexander does NOT manage his impulsivity in both the books!
-Alexander always has a problem in the stories.
-The author uses repetition in her stories.
-The settings change in both the stories.


Tomorrow, we will present our posters using strong comparing/contrasting vocabulary. Please check Seesaw for those videos!

Alexander!
