Reading Block
Chapter 1 of Bud, Not Buddy
&
Characterization

Essential Question: What do you learn about Bud in chapter 1?

Directions:
  • Chapter 1 gives the reader a lot of information about Bud. The chapter is divided between things that are happening in Bud's life at the current moment and what has happened to Bud in the past. On the first web, list details about Bud's current(present) life. On the second web, list details about Bud's past.
  • As we read I want you to underline any new, challenging, or unfamiliar words. We will make vocabulary models in the future, and this will make finding words easier. 
  • We will go over your classwork and respond to questions in ELA, so make sure it is complete. Block 2, 3, & 4 can work on it during W.I.N. and Study Skills

See you in ELA!
