Responding to Reading

Authors use their writing to share a message with us.

When you watched the video Who Are Indigenous People? the author’s message was “It is important to use the correct words when we talk about different cultures.” Books we read and videos we watch have messages for the reader and the viewer.

Families:

Listen together with your child to the book Morris Micklewhite and the Tangerine Dress by Christine Baldacchino and illustrated by Isabelle Malenfant.

Encourage your child to talk about what they think the important message is that the author wants us to learn.
