It's hard to believe that Christmas is just around the corner. This year has seriously flown by. To get myself as excited as my students about the upcoming holiday season I ordered several new reindeer themed books to add to our library collection. After reading each book I decided it was time to start working on a literature based unit that I could use and share with my fellow district library ladies! We are a close knit group and we are always sharing lesson plans and ideas. One activity turned into two and before I knew it I had an entire set of differentiated worksheets and games to go with each book.
As many of you may know, I spent 19 years teaching 1st grade prior to becoming a Media Center Specialist three years ago. Thanks to my time in the classroom I developed a LOVE of creating activities to go with books. Not only do I LOVE reading books, but I also like creating activities that I can share with other teachers and librarians.
So, without further ado . . . here is my new reindeer unit.
Hopefully you already have some or all of these books in your collection.
If not, there are links in the unit for each book on Amazon.
I always like to share a {sneak} peek at everything that is included.
Activities include a variety of differentiated sequencing, recalling story elements, writing prompts, rhyming word activities and games that can be used with student in grades K-3.
Head on over to my TpT store to snag a copy.
