Hello, Goodbye Window by Norton Juster

Windows are our part of our everyday life. We look out windows at home, at school, cars, and buses. We can also look inside windows and they help us understand what is behind the window. In the book, Hello, Goodbye Window, by Norton Juster, a young girl enjoys a special window at her Nanna and Poppy's house. As you read the story generate a list of things she experiences with the window. Does she see different things when looking from the outside to the inside of her grandparents home? Do things look different at different times of day? Also please note any other special qualities you think the " Hello, Goodbye Window" has. Do the properties of light have an impact on what the young girl views from the window? After completing the above literacy task, work with your team to create a visual aid of the different things she saw from the window. Explain how light effected the window and describe if the window was transparent, translucent, or opaque. You may use the link below to help you explain and give examples of each type. Brain Pop Jr.
