ANZAC Ted bundle - HOT reading activities - 70 pages!

Best selling resource with over 70 pages of higher order thinking and reading response activities based on the picture book, "ANZAC Ted" by Belinda Landsberry. A copy of the picture book is required to make the best use of this resource.

My "ANZAC Ted" resource may be previewed on ANZAC Ted YouTube.

Please note that the ANZAC Ted display template (also in my store) is included in this resource.

If you are looking for "busy work" or colouring in sheets, then this is not the TPT store for you :) I aim to develop resources that are hands-on, engaging and extend children's thinking. If worksheets are included, they are usually to scaffold the children's thinking. Having said that, most resources are "low-prep". To reduce costs, many of the hands-on resources are in colour so that only one copy needs to be printed and laminated for durability over a number of years, instead of having to photocopy multiple copies for individual students.

This resource uses Australian spelling, as it is using an Australian picture book to introduce concepts around ANZAC Day.

The 70 pages include:

• Making connections – text-to-text; text-to-self; text-to-world
• Character traits – using text evidence
• Retelling –graphic organisers and interactive notebook activity
• Text structure – summarising; beginning, middle, end and story message
• Word study – definitions and synonyms; thinking maps
• ANZAC Ted Rhyming words game
• Matching adjectives and nouns activity
• ANZAC Day and ANZAC Ted vocabulary word walls
• Writing; acrostic poem; narrative writing papers
• Art activities: making poppies; poppy wreaths;
• “ANZAC Ted” display outline/template
• Bookmarks to celebrate reading
• ANZAC Ode posters
