5 Books For My Unit Plan!
The Fabulous Five:
In my unit plan this semester I have obtained some fun books that help me teach my students how to recognize characters and settings, character traits, comparing and contrast characters, cause and effect, and recognizing begging, middle, and end. Here is a list and how I will use it in the lesson.
1. The Rainbow Fish - Students will be able to describe the character and setting in this story by creating a character and setting Pyramid.
2. Where The Wild Things Are - students will be able to describe the characters and setting, by writing and illustrating what they read. They will be doing this by listing the different characters, writing a sentence about their traits and then drawing a picture.
3. Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs - Students will be able to describe the character traits of the main characters and compare and contrast them using a Venn diagram.
4. A Bad Case of Stripes - Students will be able to distinguish cause and effect by writing in a multi flow map that explain the cause and effect relationships in the story.
5. The Billy Goats Gruff- Students will be able to write about the events that happened in the beginning, middle, and end of the story.
These are all great books. I love the rainbow fish book. I used a couple of those for my fantasy book list. I have never heard of the book called a bad case of the stripes. It looks like a good learning tool. I think you have some great books and using them all in great ways.
