Back-To-School From the Black Lagoon!

I just love these little chapter books.  They can be quick reads that you finish in one day or two or you can stretch them out and really dive into all the figurative language.

My classes in the past can't wait for me to start reading another one!  The librarian showed them where they are so they can check out ones for themselves.  There is no way I can read them all. There are so many titles to choose from. He has 34 chapter books and that's not counting the picture books.

I start the year with Back-to-School From the Black Lagoon.

Click the picture to grab your own copy.  Easy to copy and not a lot of prep work! 

Try some of his other books through out the year!  He has many that go with the seasons!

I'm working on a unit for his Christmas books but if you like Horrible Harry check this out! Click here for blog post.

I wish you all the best in your first days at school!

BACK TO SCHOOL FRIGHT

Not sure who's more afraid the first day!  The kids or me!

I always lose sleep that first night with all my worries!

Back-to-School Fright from the Black Lagoon

Do you love the Teacher from the Black Lagoon books?

I do and so do my students.

 

I started reading the chapter books that Mike Thaler wrote.  These are short books and won't take too long to read.  I read multiple chapters at a time.

 

I'm going to read Back-to-School Fright the first week of school this year.

It's such a funny story about Herbie who really doesn't want to come back to school.  I bet a few kids can make some great connections to this book so I've included a worksheet for them to write about it.

 

 

Check out the other pages for this Literature Companion.  Click on the worksheet.

Included are pages for vocabulary, writing, text connections, idioms, story elements and reading responses.  I hope it's helpful to the beginning of your year.

 

Have a great start to your year.  I get to get into my classroom for the first time this summer on Monday!  Wish me luck!
