Bonne rentrée ! Cette activité permettra à vos élèves de/d':

• explorer les livres dans votre classe,
• faire des recommandations à ses pairs,
• utiliser les recommandations de leurs pairs pour découvrir de nouveaux livres,
• faire des liens avec des lectures et des expériences passées,
• créer une « liste de souhaits » de lecture pour l'année scolaire.

Cette ressource est l'une de mes activités préférées pour la rentrée. Plusieurs versions de cette activité sont incluses selon l'âge de vos élèves ! Les élèves utiliseront des trombones ou des pinces à linge pour attacher leurs recommandations à leurs couvertures de livres préférées.

Ensuite, ils créeront leur propre liste de souhaits de livres en fonction des recommandations des camarades de classe.

Enfin, les élèves écriront un court texte persuasif expliquant pourquoi ils pensent que leur livre est le MEILLEUR, ce qui vous donnera un petit échantillon d'écriture afin que vous puissiez mieux répondre aux besoins de vos nouveaux élèves.

Merci!!
