Noting Details

Hi There Readers,

E.B. White has been doing a lot of what is called "foreshadowing" in the more recent chapters of Charlotte's Web.  What DETAILS does the author give about Charlotte that let us know she doesn't have much longer to live?  Remember that details come straight from the text.

Thanks,

History of the "Fair"

Good Morning Readers,

In the last chapter we read about how the Zuckermans and the Arables are off to the County Fair.  I found some interesting facts about the history of the fair here: http://en.wikipedia.org/whttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairiki/Fair.  Please read it and write down two interesting facts that you find!

Thanks,

Saved!

Good Morning Readers,

In Charlotte's Web, Charlotte's idea to save Wilbur revolves around writing messages about him in her web that make him seem like an amazing pig.

I want to hear your creativity...what might be another way that Wilbur could be saved, or rather what might you do if it was your job to save Wilbur?


Thanks,
Mrs. Springston
