Pages 1 and 3 are comics: the box at the top of a picture is the narrator, and the bubbles are the characters talking. Pages 2 and 4 ask who says what. Pages 5 and 6 ask what the picture shows that the words leave out; page 7 compares two characters, and page 8 is for drawing two characters from any stories.
Read the first comic aloud in voices: one reader for the narrator and one for each character. Then let partners read it the same way before they answer.
Read a comic or picture book together and take turns: one reads the narrator, the other the characters.
Comics, picture stories and story pairs of our own in words 1st graders can read. Students tell who is talking at each point, the narrator or a character, use the pictures to answer questions the words leave open, and compare two characters with like adventures.
