The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, Week 3
We just finished chapter 9 of Edward Tulane. The Cool Cats have now read about Edwards journey to
The Fisherman, Nellie and Edward. |
Edward has a new life now, but we imagined that he misses Abilene a great deal, and if he could, he would write a letter to her. So, The Cool Cats decided to create a digital postcard using ThingLink.We have been working on recognizing key details in a story using both the text and the pictures, so we practiced this skill in our letter writing, adding important details that we did not read about, but think may help someone visualize Edward's situation. We assumed that this way, no matter where in the world Abilene may be, she could stumble upon Edward's messages. Not only did The Cool Cats write letters as if they were Edward, but we did some searches together to find images and examples of things that Edward experienced throughout chapter 9 so that Abilene could understand and expereince some of what Edward has gone through.
