michigan guided reading group

sharing of questions and answers:
Tyshaun:
Which bees are poisonous?
I think it's the killer bee because poison can kill you and the killer bee if it stings you will kill you.
Olajuwon: Why do think the killer bee is poisonous?
Tyshaun:repeats thinking
Olajuwon: ok
I step in and direct them to page 11 of Magic School Bus that deals with some people being allergic and dying after being stung by any bee

Rashad:
Why do bees sting people?
Bees sting people because they think you're a flower
Tyshaun thumbs down. Olajuwon says you can't judge. I clear up the difference between judging questions and research.
Tyshaun: I think they do it to protect themselves.
Me: Text evidence?
Tyshaun: page 10 "stinging is a way bees protect their hive and they usually sting because they have to."
Rashad: it said on google.
We talk about citing websites.

Olajuwon:
How do bees talk?
I went on answers.com and found out that the way they talk is by buzzing.
Rashad: he had 2 answers because right here on page 23 it say "if the bee wiggles striaght up, the other bee flies straight toward the sun..."
Tyshaun: You all wrong because the waggle dance tells what the food source is.
Rashad: I know but they talking because they tellin them to go that way towards the food. That's still talking.
Olajuwon: I've got text evidence: "Doesn't the dance language of bees give you a sense of wonder?" They are talking becuase they called it a language.
Tyshaun: it says they talk by smell on page 18. "Bees don't talk in words but they do communicate."

What did we learn about research?
Josh: We can all find different things
Olajuwon: there can be more than one answer to a question
Rashad: answers can be in the internet and book
Tyshaun: copy your link because you need text evidence because you can search in the computer
