This is a super silly book meant for the younger ones! In my opinion it would be best for 2nd grade. According to Fountas & Pinnell I think it would probably fall in that grade level as well.

This is such a fun book to read to lower grades in elementary school! I think that this is a great book for students to read and learn that animals don't need clothes because they are made to live without them. I would use this book to introduce nondiscrimination and that not everyone is like us. Fo...

I think this would be an appropriate read for any 2nd to 4th grade class. For those same grades, you could teach a lesson on compound words. Before reading, you would discuss what a compound word is, share some examples and explain how you know the definition of each words by using context clues. Wh...
