Responding to literature can be fun and creative. There are many methods for students to use when responding to a piece of literature. This activity will focus on thank you note writing. This will allow students to write from first person point of view. This shows educators what students understand about a text as students reveal their thinking, feelings, and reactions to the literature they have read.
This activity will allow students to develop an understanding of dialogue. Dialogue is what is being spoken by characters in a text. Understanding who is speaking allows students to better understand the plot and/or events taking place in a story. A character’s dialogue is also important because it often sets or reflects the mood in the story. This activity will also strengthen background knowledge for word choice in identifying signals for dialogue. (said, shouted, yelled, spoke, etc.)

Identifying story elements are useful in assisting readers in building an understanding of the text.
