For a few weeks now we have been doing an activity for reading called avilll. This is where you watch a movie with subtitles and do activities to go with it. This week we did an activity called take a book to the movies.To do this activity we get into groups of 4 and have a dictionary ready. The movie will get stopped and the hardest word on that subtitle will get looked up by one person in the group. These are my results...
