I’ve already read 5 books with my class and I’ve only had them for 10 weeks! That might seem like a long time, but it’s really not when you’re spending time really delving into these books and exploring them deeply with the children.
Oliver Jeffers is such a fabulous children’s author. His books are often heartfelt and I love that.
I absolutely loved this wordless picture book. Yes, you read that right… a wordless picture book. This stimulated their imaginations so much. They all wrote amazing stories following this book. ❤
As part of the curriculum, children have to be introduced to different books by the same author and make connections. So, I used the wonderful Oliver Jeffers again! This book was adorable.
At first I was dreading the poetry unit that came from this book. As time went on though, the children seemed to ‘get’ poetry more. They loved several poems from this book and I can imagine that I’ll continue dipping into it throughout this school year.
Our latest read has inspired our children! I was worried that they might be a bit scared by a ten headed demon king but apparently not…
