What educators are saying

SOOOO fun! My students loved this. Some students thought it was creepy but it was appropriate for 5th grade.

Rated 5 out of 5

This was the PERFECT lesson on using inferencing skills! My 6th grade Resource ELA class was engaged until the bell rang for dismissal. Awesome resource with easy-to-follow script and suggested topping points in the video for discussion.

Description

This product is a companion sheet for the video Alma . https://youtu.be/irbFBgI0jhM. Your students will be RIVETED by this film!!

This video features an adorably animated little girl strolling through the city on a winter day. Oddly, she spots a doll in a window of a shop, and the doll looks exactly like HER!!

As the story unfolds, students are provided with 'stop' points featuring a variety of inferring skills:

✨Inferring Author's Purpose

✨Inferring Tone

✨Inferring Character Behavior

✨Inferring Story Events

✨Predicting (a form of inferring)

Because the video is wordless, SO MUCH powerful inferring takes place!! The twist at the end of the video will have your students on the edge of their seats!!!!!

The video companion sheet features stop points during which students stop the film and answer inferring questions. This can easily be converted to an Edpuzzle activity as well!

Great for station work and review work on critical common core skills and PERFECT for distance learning.You'll find this print-and-go a GREAT way to introduce as well as reinforce inferring skills in a compelling way that the kids will be talking about for days!!!
