Reading


LI- Summarize using Visualizing and Inferencing.
 This week we were learning to summaries. 

We also needed to link visualization and inferencing to help us.

We filled in a story web to summaries each parts of the story.

I used my visualization from week 1 to help separate the parts of the story .

I used my character inference traits to use adjectives and  evidence to help summaries different parts. Using good adjectives unlocks meaningful information and I can summaries quicker connecting all 3 strategies helped me to understand the story character and keywords.
