Franklin the turtle is on another adventure in Paulette Bourgeois' book Franklin Goes to the Hospital, and there are plenty of new words for your young readers to explore as they hear this story. Although you can include more, you'll find scripted instruction for five words here: clutched, equipment, numb, prodded, and unfamiliar. As they listen, kids raise a hand when they hear one of these words and pay attention to context clues. You'll love the comprehension questions, which are unique to each word and promote connections to prior knowledge. Don't forget the graphic organizers, which are linked for struggling learners.
