hi friends today we are going to be looking at how to make connections while we are reading our essential question is how can I make connections while reading connections we can think of like puzzle pieces the pieces fit together to make a picture so when we make connections we fit together things we've seen things we might already know we put them together to make a picture so that we can better understand what we're reading there are three ways to make connections with a book the first way is text to self the second way is text to text and the third way is text to world before we start making connections we're going to look a little bit deeper into each one of these let's start with text to self when we make text to self connections we read a text and then we think where have I seen this before in my own life what does this remind me of that may have happened to me or maybe that I thought about or I saw in my life we might say something like it reminds me of a time when and then we would make our connection so for example a text to self connection I've made before is with the recess clean when I read the recess clean for the first time I thought about when how I was in second grade there was a girl on the playground who was always mean I remember that one time she even pulled my hair so what I could write as a text to self connection would be when I read the part about Mean Gene being mean to the other kids on the playground I think about how when I was in second grade there was a mean girl on the playground one time she even pulled my hair by making this text-to-self connection it helps me understand what's happening in the story and maybe even help the people feel another text-to-self connection I can make is with the story what do you do with a problem well when I read what do you do with a problem this book reminded me well one time when I was younger and I had a problem I had built with my brother both my brothers and my sister a big fort in our backyard but one day there was a huge storm and knocked over all our fort and it fell on top of some of our toys and they broke this boy in the story had a problem just like I did listen to my text-to-self connection that I made this book reminded me of one time when I was younger and I had a problem my fort got destroyed in a big storm all my hard work was ruined and my toys were broken I was so upset but I took that problem and I fixed it I made an even better for it that's just how like in the text the boy took his problem and he made it beautiful a second kind of connection is a text-to-text connection text text connection happens when you read a text and it makes you think about another text that you've read before it might be a poem you might have been a story anything like that you might say something like it reminds me of the book here's an example we've read both of these stories what do you do with a problem and the most magnificent thing when I read the part in what do you do with the problem when the boy was really afraid but he didn't give up and he tackled his problem that made me think about another story we have read the most magnificent thing in this story the girl gets really frustrated and nothing is working just like how the boy tries to run away from his problem but it doesn't work but in the most magnificent thing the girl keeps trying until she finally succeeds at making what she wants in both stories the characters kept trying until they finally got it this is a text 'ok text connection we connected two stories that we read the third type of connection is text to world when we think about a text to world connection we read a story and that makes us think about something that has happened in the world or something we've thought about some things we might say include this book reminds me of something in the world this is similar to this is like something I heard on the news this happened when all of these are text to world connections here's an example we've read The Lorax now in The Lorax all of the truffula trees are getting cut down when we read The Lorax we thought about how so many trees in the Amazon rainforests are also being cut down that was a text to world connection we thought about what we read in the text and then we connected it to what we knew was happening in the world we said when I read the story about all of the truffula trees getting cut down I thought about how so many trees in the Amazon rainforest are being cut down this is something that is happening in real life we made a text to world connection so in conclusion there are three ways to make connections with the book first text to self the second text to set text and the third text to world all right readers go make some connections
