• Contribute their thoughts on the various purposes and intended audiences of these texts, as part of a class discussion.
• Complete the Worksheet Lesson 4–5 Picture book or graphic novel analysis for one of the texts which they have read.
• Create a spider diagram of their own autobiographical experiences; these may be happy and/or sad.
