As the flaky snow was falling outside, all the students in the classroom sat in their seats, quietly listening to their teacher, Mrs Green. In this heartwarming reading activity, many things were not what they looked at from the outside. One of the children was madly curious about the pictures of that book the teacher was reading. Another thought that the protagonist in the tale did not like his answer, but he could say it from within. The boy who looked at his teacher without blinking in the back row did not hear the teacher’s voice and was trying to understand the new color of Mrs. Green’s hair. After she finished the book, Mrs. Green asked “Did you like the book?” All the class yelled together: “Yes!” With a pleased expression, Mrs. Green lifted the book into the classroom library and asked the boy sitting in the back row, “Tell me please where was the setting?”

You also think that a reading activity shouldn’t be like that, right?  So come on!
