In this lesson on hobbies and free time, students explore the literary text “Max’s Words” by Kate Banks and improve their comprehension skills through predicting, reading aloud, and answering questions. The focus is on the theme of collecting, with examples of different collections from a poem by Wes Magee, such as coins, stamps, and posters, prompting students to consider what they collect personally. The lesson also asks students to observe and interpret visuals, such as the book cover, to enhance understanding and engagement.
