English Language Arts
- Improving reading skills through the consumption of three different books.
- Expanding vocabulary and language comprehension by encountering new words and contexts in each book.
- Understanding different writing styles and story structures through exposure to a variety of genres.
- Developing critical thinking and analytical skills by comparing and contrasting the themes and characters across the three books.
For continued development, encourage Freya to write book reviews or summaries for each of the books she has read. This can help her practice organizing her thoughts, expressing her opinions, and using language effectively. Additionally, she can explore related activities such as creating illustrations inspired by the books, or even writing her own short stories based on the characters or themes she encountered in her reading.
