100 Fill-In-The-Blank Questions * Grades 4 and UpListeningComprehension
The One and Only IvanSuggested Pacing GuideThis listening comprehension activity is meant for use with the audio book; thenarrator’s voice truly adds to the experience. I purchase through Audible and playit through my iPad, but you could also purchase through iTunes or another retailer.Of course, you could read it aloud yourself if you prefer.My students do not have a copy of the book; they only have the questions packet,and I tell them which questions to answer each day. For each question, thechapter titles are in parentheses. This way, students know that when they hearthe title, the answer(s) are forthcoming.Below, you’ll find a suggested pacing guide for using this activity. I like to keep itbetween 20-25 minutes daily. In doing so, this activity takes 10 days to complete.Questions appear as they do in the story—or very close to it. It is important thatstudents listen carefully for answers. Since I want the answers to come fromlistening (rather than deductive reasoning from possible choices), I do not providea word bank.DayDurationQuestion #sStartEnd124 min.1-9hellostella225 min.10-20stella’s trunkchange320 min.21-28guessinghome of the one and 425 min.29-38art lessonknowing523 min.39-48firemena visit621 min.49-57a new beginninganother ivan721 min.58-67daysshowing julia822 min.68-78more paintingscheck marks922 min.79-88free rubya new tv1023 min.89-100the familysilverback100 Fill-in-the-blank Questions2 2015 erin cobbimlovinlit.com
