00:05 | Hello , readers . Today we are going to focus | |
00:09 | on another good reader behavior that involves illustrations . Have | |
00:14 | you ever heard the phrase A picture is worth 1000 | |
00:17 | words ? People use that phrase to describe just how | |
00:21 | powerful images can be in helping us visualized or understand | |
00:26 | ideas . When we read , It's so important to | |
00:32 | pay attention to illustrations and images . Toe help us | |
00:36 | better understand the story . Sometimes pictures can help us | |
00:41 | understand the setting , how characters act and feel and | |
00:46 | what happens during the beginning , middle or end of | |
00:49 | a story . We are going to use the book | |
00:53 | . Amelia and Eleanor go for a ride toe . | |
00:56 | Help us understand how to use illustrations . This story | |
01:00 | is written by Pam . You Knows Ryan and illustrated | |
01:04 | by Brian Selznick . This book is historical fiction about | |
01:10 | two real people . The story is based on Amelia | |
01:13 | Earhart , the first woman to fly solo across the | |
01:16 | Atlantic Ocean , and Eleanor Roosevelt , the first lady | |
01:20 | of the United States in the 19 thirties and how | |
01:23 | they were friends . The story begins with Amelia being | |
01:28 | invited to the White House by Eleanor . When sitting | |
01:31 | at the table , Amelia learns that Eleanor received her | |
01:34 | student pilot's license , and she offers to teach Eleanor | |
01:39 | how to fly . Eleanor responds by asking , I | |
01:43 | accept . What is it like to fly at night | |
01:46 | in the dark ? As written in the book , | |
01:50 | Amelia says , Everyone at the table leave closer to | |
01:54 | here . Very few people in the world that ever | |
01:57 | flown at night and Amelia was one of them . | |
02:00 | Emilia's eyes sparkled , the stars glitter all about and | |
02:05 | seemed close enough to touch at higher elevations . The | |
02:09 | clouds below shine white with dark islands where the night | |
02:12 | see shows through . I've seen the planet Venus setting | |
02:17 | on the horizon and I've circled cities of twinkling lights | |
02:22 | . As a reader , it's important for me to | |
02:24 | use the illustration to gain a better understanding of what | |
02:27 | Amelia is explaining about flying at night . I can | |
02:30 | see from the picture the excitement in Emilia's face as | |
02:34 | she explains what it's like to fly at night . | |
02:37 | I see the dinner guests trying to imagine what the | |
02:40 | night sky might look like , Their eyes air closed | |
02:43 | in . Stars appear around them as if they are | |
02:46 | visualizing . They seem in awe of what Amelia is | |
02:51 | describing . One woman has her hand over her heart | |
02:55 | . Without this picture , we wouldn't know how in | |
02:58 | awe they are a flying and of Amelia . As | |
03:03 | the story continues , Amelia and Eleanor decided to fly | |
03:05 | over the capital city toward Baltimore at night , Amelia | |
03:09 | says when asked about what the capital city looks like | |
03:12 | . There's no describing it . You just have to | |
03:15 | experience it on a clear night . When you conceive | |
03:18 | forever , why we should go tonight We could fly | |
03:21 | the loop to Baltimore and back in no time . | |
03:24 | The Secret Service men protest it . This hasn't been | |
03:28 | approved . Nonsense , said Eleanor . If Amelia Earhart | |
03:33 | can fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean , I can | |
03:36 | certainly take a short flight to Baltimore and back . | |
03:40 | No , I can't forget to look at the picture | |
03:42 | on this page . I see the faces of Eleanor | |
03:44 | and Amelia . Their faces show that they are thrilled | |
03:48 | to be able to experience a night flight together . | |
03:51 | Their faces also show their braveness that despite the secret | |
03:54 | services , protests and the possible danger of the flight | |
03:58 | , they were ready to fly together Last This photo | |
04:02 | shows me the admiration these two women have for each | |
04:04 | other that they trust one another and rely on each | |
04:07 | other to defy the odds . Then Amelia and Eleanor | |
04:12 | make their way into the sky as it states in | |
04:15 | the book . Out the window , the Potomac River | |
04:19 | glistened with moonshine . The Capitol dome reflected a soft | |
04:24 | golden halo , and the enormous , light drenched monuments | |
04:29 | looked like tiny miniatures . Later on the page , | |
04:33 | it says , Eleanor marveled , It's like sitting on | |
04:37 | top of the world's . Even though the author uses | |
04:43 | thes words to create a picture in our mind , | |
04:45 | it's hard to imagine . But then we turn the | |
04:48 | page and see this illustration . This picture shows the | |
04:53 | glistening of the Capitol building and the sparkle of the | |
04:55 | city at night . It helps us understand the setting | |
04:59 | and what the characters are experiencing at this moment in | |
05:01 | the story . This also helps us understand the character | |
05:05 | of Amelia , why she wanted to fly and the | |
05:09 | excitement of flying in an airplane . As you can | |
05:14 | see , readers Amelia and Eleanor go for a ride | |
05:17 | is a great example of how illustrations can help us | |
05:19 | gain Ah , better understanding of character setting and Platt | |
05:24 | in a story illustrations air used to help better support | |
05:28 | the author's words . So when you read , make | |
05:31 | sure to pay attention to illustrations to help you become | |
05:33 | a better reader . |
