I think that if I paired this with the cute commercial with the child eating cereal and the cereal is making sure he is ready for the test and then reading the book about Columbus sailing the ocean blue would spark their interest. Then they could reenact their own cereal commercial! This would proba...
I love this Holiday. It would be fun to read this book and have my students write friendly letters to veterans thanking them for their service. I loved writing letters to my friends over seas and it would be a great opportunity for the kids to write and make someone's day. I think this would be appr...
This would be a good book to read when my 1st grade class is learning all about our presidents and to go along with history. It would be fun to give them a writing assignment about what a President does and what the white house looks like.
This book would be another one to read during Thanksgiving. It is more realistic and tells the true story of Thanksgiving. I would find multiple Thanksgiving stories to read to my class so they can compare the different stories. I would use this with a 1st or 2nd grade class. This could be used alon...
I think this is one of the most important holidays that we celebrate. This would be a good book to read before the holiday and have the students reflect on a time they may have seen a flag flying somewhere. This would be most appropriate for 1st or second grade. This series gives students great Ins...
I think that learning about the American Flag is really important. This is a simple book that explains this holiday and then the students could draw their own flag of an imaginary country and what that flag would look like. Then they could write a story to go along with their imaginary country. I am...
This book is part of my " American Holidays" collection. Although we wouldn't be in school on this holiday I found this short book very interesting. It would be good to read if a child from Texas was to move to my school because this Holiday is celebrated in Texas. I would use this for about 1st gra...
This would be a fun book to read on Labor Day to make sure the kids understand what Labor Day actually is for. This is a very elementary book, so I would use this for kindergarten or 1st grade. I would read it aloud and then for a writing assignment we would write letters to all of the hard workers ...
This is a very short but informational book set in my holiday collection. This would be good for a mini-lesson and then have the kids learn more about MLK Jr. for a project or if the school is doing a play this would be good insight. This would be set for ages 1st grade to 3rd grade. I would bring m...
This book would even be great for a storytime! It has beautiful photographs and simple straightforward sentences explaining the process. I was definitely engaged the way through!
