    Making Connections

    Readers make personal connections with the text by using their background knowledge. There are three main types of connections we make while reading text.

    Text-to-Self (T-S) refers to connections made between the text and the reader's personal experience. Text-to-Text (T-T) refers to connections made between a text being read to a text that was previously read. Text-to-World (T-W) refers to connections made between a text being read and something that occurs in the world.

    YOUR ASSIGNMENT: Text-to-Self (T-S) Make a text-to-self connection. Good readers make personal connections to a story. It helps them understand how the characters feel and makes them understand the book better! Text-to-Text (T-T) Make a text-to-text connection.
