The story: 

'they're made out of meat'

Book p 128

This is kind of a weird story, so pay close attention.

While we're reading, keep the following questions in mind:

- Who is talking?

- What do they look like?

- Who are they talking about?

- Describe the situation in 1 sentence

also take note of any difficult words you don't understand. 

Differentiation:

you can listen along if you want to

you have 8 minutes

Difficult words?

Who is talking?

What do they look like?

Who are they talking about?

1. other aliens
2. animals
3. humans
4. we don't know

Write one sentence to describe what's going on.

How do we know all of this? 

Think for a second, go back to the story to take a second look. 

When something is not clearly said in the story, how can you still figure out what's going on?

Context

something that explains the meaning of something else. The surrounding text/events.

context can help you understand words or situations in stories. 

If you're ever confused about anything in a book, try to go back and read the context of what's going on, this often explains it and makes reading a lot easier. 

What is a sentence that could be a clue to the aliens talking about humans?

Let's switch to the book p 131
