✏️LESSONS:
There is a detailed lesson plan for each book, with “Book Chat” cards and questions to guide your discussion before, during, and after reading.
An interactive anchor chart and writing activity are also included, focusing on the social-emotional skills presented in the book and encouraging children to express their thinking.
✏️STORY ACTIVITIES:
Each book has 4 follow-up activities to build upon the book’s social-emotional lesson. A fun variety of activities are included for independent, partner, and small group use.
✏️DIGITAL ACTIVITIES:
Every book companion comes with a digital anchor chart, writing template, and at least 2 digital activities. These are ready in Google Slides™ for use in Google Classroom™.
❤️Suggestions on How to Use:
- Each lesson starts with a book chat that continues during and after reading a book. There are questions included to guide your discussion.
- There is an anchor chart idea provided to enhance the book’s lesson.
- A follow-up writing activity can be used to extend the discussion.
- There are 4 activities for each children’s book. Some include digital options.
- I suggest reading 1 book per week and doing the lesson. Use the extra activities to reinforce the topic the story covers throughout the week.
- Differentiated templates included. Please choose what fits best with your students’ abilities and needs.
- The lessons and activities work great for after morning meetings or end of the day lessons, school counselors and classroom teachers, and children in K-2.
