Read Aloud!
***If you need ideas for a read aloud, I'll be happy to help you find that just right book for your classroom. Here are a few ideas but please ask for more!
A Bad Case of Stripes - Shannon
Ms. McCaw Learns to Draw - Zemach
Dudley Ellington tries, but he's just no good at school. Luckily, he has Ms. McCaw as a teacher. She's patient and she never lets other students pick on Dudley. Also, she knows wonderful things: why stars shine, how plants grow. Dudley thinks Ms. McCaw knows everything.
Then one day, Ms. McCaw tries to draw a simple face on the chalkboard, and she can't do it! The other kids start to snicker, but Dudley jumps to the rescue and gives his favorite teacher a drawing lesson. With Kaethe Zemach's cheery illustrations showing the way, all little fingers will itch to take up a pencil! - Scholastic
Martha Speaks - Meddaugh
The Great Chicken Debacle - Naylor
Summer vacation has arrived. The kids can think of nothing but Starlight Park and its rides. The Screaming Cyclone, Red Devil, Mad Hornet. The fact that their parents won’t take them poses the greatest dilemma of their young lives. That is, until Cornelia makes a deal with Dad. In return for their help in keeping Mom’s one-of-a-kind birthday present hidden for a week, Dad will grant their wish. By the end of a week’s chicken duty, young readers will agree. The Morgans and Deeter have earned their trip to Starlight Park!" - Amazon
Nasty, Stinky Sneakers - Bunting
But now, after weeks of working toward stinky perfection -- not washing his feet, wearing no socks, jogging to get his feet juicy, and even sleeping with his sneakers on -- the nasty, stinky sneakers are missing!" - Amazon
The Year of Billy Miller - Henkes
