Hook Your Students: Begin the lesson by telling your students an intriguing story. Consider the following story as a starter:
“Once upon a time, there was a small village where letters mysteriously disappeared every night. The villagers woke up each morning to find their stories unfinished and their books unread. One wise old owl named Oliver decided to investigate. He discovered that the letters were sneaking away to create a library in a hidden tree. Oliver had to convince the letters to come back and share their wisdom with the villagers again. Now, we are going to help Oliver by reading some passages to uncover the secrets of their stories!”
