This set of lesson plans, resources, and activities is for use with The Kissing Hand by Audrey Penn. It can be used for whole group, small group, and independent instruction – which makes these resources a smart choice for literacy centers or Reader’s Workshop. Here's What You'll Get and Why: My goal was to make it easy to teach readers how to think about The Kissing Hand using a variety of comprehension strategies. That's why I've included page by page lesson plans, guided practice worksheets, and text specific reader's notebook prompts for the following strategies: - Retelling and Summarizing - Making Connections - Making Predictions - Identifying the Author's Purpose - Asking Questions I also created an Extension Activity for early finishers. Next, I find that vocabulary instruction works best when it's done within the context of books that students are already reading. That's why I've included the following vocabulary resources: - Vocabulary Word List - Flash Cards (match words to pictures and match words to definitions) - Interactive Vocabulary Notebook Cards - Vocabulary Word Games Printable - Personal Vocabulary Word Bookmark I've also included a word study lesson plan and set of activities, because, much like vocabulary, I find that word study works best within context. As a result, I have identified word patterns within trade books and have developed lesson plans and resources based on the word study that can be done with specific books. The lesson plan and set of resources for The Kissing Hand focuses on Words ending in "ed" and includes the following: - Lesson Plan - Interactive Activity - Practice Page - Independent Word Work This set of resources also includes the following: - Running Record Assessment - Common Core Aligned Comprehension Assessment - Answer Keys - Common Core State Standard Alignment - Spanish translation of the comprehension strategy practice pages, reader's notebook prompts (complete with Spanish Common Core "I Can" statements), and extension activities for use with The Kissing Hand - BONUS: Surprise Sample Resource I hope that you will enjoy using my resources along with your copy or copies of The Kissing Hand by Audrey Penn.

This set of lesson plans, resources, and activities is for use with Caps for Sale, Diary of a Worm, The Paper Bag Princess, and Where the Wild Things Are. These resources can be used for whole group, small group, and independent instruction – which makes these them a smart choice for literacy centers or Reader’s Workshop. Each lesson plan follows the format of a mini lesson and provides an opportunity for students to turn and talk about how they understand text structure while reading. Students will also have the opportunity to practice the strategy with a page by page guided “worksheet” and write about their reading with a common core aligned Reader’s notebook prompt. Here's What You'll Get and Why: My goal was to make it easy to teach readers how to think about books through the lens of comprehension strategies. This book bundle will help you teach readers how to understanding text structure while reading popular picture books for second grade readers. You’ll get the following set of resources for each book: - Understanding Text Structure Comprehension Strategy Lesson Plan - Page by Page Practice Worksheets - Answer Keys - Text Specific Reader’s Notebook Prompts - Understanding Text Structure Graphic Organizer - Complete Common Core Alignment You’ll also get a set of Understanding Text Structure Task Cards that can be used with early finishers or as an extension activity for all students.
