Fancy Nancy is my favorite series for lower elementary grades. It tells the adventures of a young girl and it is an easy read. The students could read the story and do a lesson on adjectives. Also, the students could have a lesson on character analysis considering Nancy is a very interesting charact...
This book is about a student who has an issue thinking of a creative item to bring to class for the 100th day of school. The assignment is to bring 100 of whatever object the student has chosen. During the week she noticed that it seemed as though every student already knew what they were bringing. ...
Boy, oh, boy!! This boy means business!! I also found this book in my placement and boy is Alexander serious! I would use this book for not only talking about stubbornness and keeping an open mind, but also for character analysis! Alexander does a lot of changing in this book and there is a lot of g...
I love this book, because it gives so many examples of synonyms to different words. I think that this book would be a wonderful book to read to a second grade classroom that us learning about synonyms. It teaches students that an object can have multiple words that mean the same thing. An activity t...

I find myself using the, "I brought you into this world..." more often then I care to admit. This story is the other side of that. It tells a child the joys that ...

I would use this book in second or third grade. These books are a great way to inspire students to grow and develop their vocabulary.All...
Fancy Nancy is just fun and she probably is more on the girly-er side but I think using this series could be a great vocabulary builder in the lower grades. She always is using fun "fancy" words that kids have probably never heard which I think is great for lower grades to hear. Fun fact: I made a F...
Ugh. I think even my third graders would feel condescended to, that's a fancy word that means talked down to, by this book.And the whole secret admirer story line was so ridiculously girly that I can only think of one student I've ever taught who would actually enjoy it.The book's only saving grace...
