Mr Stink

The following is a Book Trailer for the story Mr. Stink by David Williams. It was completed as part of our TSI lessons over the last few months in 5th and 6th class. Transactional Strategy Instruction is approach to literacy that we have been using for the last four years. The children love it and it has helped them in becoming competent independent readers.
