After reviewing the questions Katie came up with last week. We decided we are going to go with them because they are really good. I don't want to change them unless we need to. So the questions are a go. Here are the questions:
Before the story...
1. Look at the cover page, which character do you think is Elizabeth? Which is Larry? and which is Ed? Why do you think that?
After the podcast...
2. What do you think Elizabeth's surprise for Larry is?
Once the students have read the entire story...
3. Why did Ed move in with Elizabeth and Larry? How would you feel if that happened to you? Where would you go?
4. The last sentence of the story says, "And there was a special place set aside in the swamp for all of its unusual creatures." Who were some of the "unusual creatures" we met within this story. What makes them unusual? Do you know of any other unusual creatures and where they live?
Afterthoughts...
5. Go back to the beginning of the story, the illustration on the first page shows Elizabeth and Larry relaxing in front of their home. What do you think life was like for Elizabeth and Larry before the story began? .
