Reading:  Please use your Writing Practice book to compare what you know about The Golden Lion Tamarin Comes Home with what you guessed about it before I read the story. 

Use these questions as a guide:

1) Was your guess fiction or non-fiction?

2) Did you guess that it is a kind of monkey?

3) How else is your story different.

Use details from the story to draw a picture of what the Golden Lion Tamarin looks like.
