Marry Poppins is not your average nanny, she is able to make the most ordinary events into some extraordinary events. Throughout the text Marry helps Jane and Michael until her work is done and she floats away.

After reading and watching Mary Poppins, students will write down one similarity and one difference between the book and movie with 80% accuracy 

Adapted to the Classroom 
This would be a text that we would read over time a few chapters at a time. After each reading we would record important details from the chapter read that day. Along with recording important events, we would also make predictions as to what will happen next.

After finishing reading the text we will watch the Disney movie Marry Poppins. While students are watching the movie I will ask them to write down important details. After we finish viewing the movie we will come together and make a list of important details. When this list is finish, we will compare and contrast the book and the movie.

To finish, students will be asked to write down one similarity and one difference that they notice between the movie and the book.
