Great 'author and you' question

I just thought of great questions for the lesson that we did in class today. Tell me what you think of it:

"Why do you think the author started and ended the book wth the same illustrations?"

"Did you all notice the rhyming pattern in the both stories?" "Cool Right?"

"What is the effect of the rhyme on the story?"

Come on guys give me your opinions and possible answers.

My QAR strategy question for my class blog

QAR QUESTIONS

"RIGHT THERE": What did George P. Johnson do before he fell asleep?

"THINK AND SHARE": How would you describe George's dream?

"AUTHOR AND YOU": What is another suitable title for the story?

"ON YOUR OWN": If you were George, would you have heeded or disobeyed McFeeglebee's rules?

A Sharpened Appetite

To Aisha ,Sherisse and Murella, thanks a lot for providing the opportunity for me to be on courant with the new Web 2.0 Technologies. If you did not open my eyes I would still be in the Stone Age(lol). I know that my students would thank you also, if they could, because they will be using the computer lab more often from now on. Thanks for all your guidance.

To my fellow colleagues, I would like to say a warm thank you to all who read and commented on my blog. To my one and only follower 1stKathine, a special thank you.
I would not say that this is the end of my blogging. This assignment has whetted my appetite for blogging. Also, there are more issues I would like to discuss and comment on. For example, to what extent is technology integration featured or even considered in standardised tests both at the school and national level?
I encourage all of you to let's keep commenting and providing support for one another.
Until August 13th, Ciao!!
