Reading comprehension is the name of the game! After listening to the teacher model and share personal prior knowledge about small children and what they do with food, the class discusses how they too can use prior knowledge to understand text. They read the story, I Will Never Not Ever Eat a Tomato by Lauren Child, and apply their personal background knowledge to draw conclusions about the story.
