Thoughtful Logs
What is a thoughtful log?
The thoughtful log is a tool used in both reading and writing. It helps to
connects all subjects. There are 5 sections (which you create using sticky

1.
2.
3.

figurative language, alliteration, irony, similes and metaphors,
personification, etc. You will be taught to add examples as you find them on
