How do you teach text-to-self connections in first grade in a way young readers can really understand? In this episode of The Education Connection, Robin Wilson continues the Writing About Reading Series with a simple, classroom-tested approach to teaching text-to-self connections. Learn how to introduce the strategy with a Book → Me anchor chart, model your own connection, and help students connect events and feelings in a story to experiences from their own lives. Robin also shares how she moves first graders from reading and talking to drawing and writing about their connections. Because if they can say it, they can write it! You'll also hear how to help students move beyond random or surface-level connections and begin making connections that actually help them understand what they're reading. 🎁 FREE Text-to-Self Connections Printable A free printable that goes along with this lesson is available on the First Grade Love blog. Use it as a visual reminder to help students think about meaningful connections between a book and their own lives.

Happy teaching!
