At the moment we are reading a book called 'Wonder'. It is a fabulous story and our class are really enjoying it! Due to the fact that there are so many themes to explore in this text I wanted a way that the children could respond without the constant rigour of writing and writing....and writing! So I decided to create a Bloom's and Gardner's Multiple Intelligence grid that the students could work through using a range of ways to respond. One of the activities the kids loved was using the app Autorap to record their thoughts on a particular section of the text. This clever little app then allows the students to pick a beat they wish their voices to be adapted to for the resulting rap. I have embedded a few of them below as well as a copy of the matrix we are using for those of you who are reading, have read, or are looking to read the fabulous book 'Wonder'. What ways do you like to respond to text?
