Before Reading
• Look at the cover of the book. Discuss the picture
and the title.
• Ask readers to brainstorm a list of what they
already know about spring weather. What can
they expect to see in the book?

pictures to discuss vocabulary and make
predictions about the text.

During Reading
• Read for purpose. Encourage readers to think
about the weather they might see in the
spring as they are reading.
• Ask readers to look for the details of the book.
What kinds of weather are included?
• If readers encounter an unknown word, ask
them to look at the sounds in the word. Then,
ask them to look at the rest of the page. Are
there any clues to help them understand?

After Reading
• Encourage readers to pick a buddy and reread
the book together.
• Ask readers to name three types of weather from
the book that can happen during spring. Go back
and find the pages that tell about each type.
