Thank you so much for sharing your ideas. I am going to use these for our library&#39;s story time tomorrow in honor of the upcoming movie release.

The name of the book is &quot;Today is Monday in Louisiana.&quot; It is written by Johnette Downing. :o)

How about putting the hat stories together for a read aloud. The children will love it when their page comes up. Add it to your class library.

What a great time to read "CAPS FOR SALE" and act it out.<BR/>Also it would be fun to make a book with each child drawing a picture of his hat and adding a sentence about it.

I just found your blog while looking for activities to do with my kids after blueberry picking and reading "Blueberries for Sal". What a wonderful blog you have!

...Wow...just learned some very basic things I should've taught my kids while they were preschoolers! I should've gone so much farther than just reading the title before reading the text! I love the part about "these marks make words"! This makes a lot of sense!

I love this book...the illustrations are so much fun and it such a great way for kids to learn a chain of cause and effect!

Make-up or write a true story about your family. Use rhyme and repetition if you choose. Make it scary or funny. Join your child in doing the illustrations. Don't forget to add a cover and the title and author page. You can have your stories spiral bound at Office Max for about $3. Save and read often. Have fun together!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is something I'm sure I'll find my son did in class one day. *emails to the teacher*

I keep trying to think of one of our favorite books that was a song. "Today is Monday. Today is Monday, Monday, string beans. All you little children come on and eat." There is a food for each day and we sing it over like you do for the twelve days of Christmas We had such fun singing and it was perfect for learning the days of the week.

What a great idea. I love the book Caps for Sale. I'll make that book my next post.

My kinderkids loved the book Caps for Sale. That would be another great one to read when you're talking about monkeys and looking for ideas to act out. Pretending to walk with all those caps on your head is such fun and of course kinderkids love being copycats.

How about having the teacher write a sentence underneath each page dictated by the child artist. Read together with the class and put it in the class library for future classtime readings

Although Christmas is past, I never get tired of the stories. The Night Before Christmas is a favorite tradition to read/quote every year. With my older children who have heard it many times, we each say a line round-robin style. Sometimes we "trick" each other into "having" to finish the line by saying only part of it and stopping in the middle. Their is always someone who just can't resist
