Mo Willems is the author of the Pigeon book series. The books contain large amounts of vocabulary designed for k-2nd graders. However, the pictures are so simple and adorable, they can be enjoyed by people of all ages. I adore this series so much that i have collected all of them despite that my son is almost 20 years old. As a result, I created the first of what I hope to be a series of reading comprehension and guided reading activity packs to make learning more fun for early elementary students as well as special education students and those with special needs in the areas of speech and communication. The book, "Don't Let the Pigeon Stay up Late," is required reading in order for students to complete all of the activities. It is available for purchase at Amazon and at Mo Willems own website. You can also find it at your local library to check out. Students will practice reading and learn about grammar, spelling, and increase vocabulary. Activities include: Open-ended questions, writing prompts, based on the text in the book. Sight word recognition activities 32 Spelling Words 32 Vocabulary Words Alphabetization Fill-in-the-Blank Drawing And More Students will be given the opportunity to search for: 14 CVC words found in the book 14 nouns found in the book 18 sight words found in the book Great for: Reading Centers Literature Centers Guided Reading Read aloud activities Practicing Social and Emotional Skills Pigeon books are written so that the reader is directly being spoken to by the Pigeon.

ELA, Reading Comprehension, Reading, Grade 3, 4, 5, Lesson Plans, Teacher Tools, Worksheets & Printables, Novel Studies
Bring Because of Winn-Dixie to life in your classroom with this engaging and flexible novel study! Designed for upper elementary and middle school students, this resource helps young readers develop strong comprehension skills while introducing the Question-Answer Relationship (QAR) strategy in a meaningful way. The unit begins with mini-posters and reading journal inserts to teach students the four types of questions: Right There, Think and Search, Author and Me, and On My Own. By mastering this questioning strategy early on, students build the skills they need to dig deeper into the novel as they read. Instead of just answering surface-level questions, they’ll learn how to think critically, analyze text, and discuss ideas with confidence. As students move through the book, they’ll continue to practice and refine their questioning techniques, applying them to character development, themes, and major plot events. This approach encourages independent thinking and richer discussions, giving teachers the opportunity to guide students toward a deeper understanding of the text. How This Unit Works: 📖 QAR Mini-Lessons – Start with clear explanations and visual aids to introduce the questioning strategy. 📖 Active Reading & Skill Building – As students read, they apply QAR techniques to think critically about the story. 📖 Comprehension & Discussion Activities – Thoughtful prompts encourage meaningful conversations about characters, themes, and events. 📖 Final Project & Post-Reading Activities – Wrap up the novel with engaging project work that reinforces key takeaways. Why You’ll Love This Resource: ✔️ Makes questioning strategies easy to teach and apply. ✔️ Encourages higher-level thinking and deep discussions. ✔️ Works well for whole-class instruction, small groups, or independent study. ✔️ Includes ready-to-use mini-posters and journal inserts to support student learning. What’s Included? Mini-posters & reading journal inserts to introduce QAR Comprehension questions that challenge students to think deeply A final project for creative and reflective learning Flexible pacing to fit your teaching style This Because of Winn-Dixie novel study is a simple yet powerful way to help students build comprehension skills, improve questioning techniques, and connect with this heartfelt story. Whether used as a full-class novel study or a small group book unit, it’s a resource that makes reading more meaningful and engaging!

The Mayflower Compact- Analyzing a Primary Source Document, is a 27 page standards aligned resource that provides your 6th-9th grade students with strategies for reading, understanding, and analyzing a challenging primary source document. Our students need help developing the skills to read complex materials, especially primary source historical documents. Students need practice on how to read a primary source document, and reading it once isn’t enough. Your students will participate in a close read of the primary source document four times: 1. for context and origins (source the document); 2. for meaning; 3. for the purpose (argument or thesis) of the document; and 4. read like a historian. Students will collaborate in deep discussions developing their critical thinking skills as they delve into their reading and analysis of the Mayflower Compact. Through this experience, they will find that their discussions become richer as they work through the questions provided for each of the 4 Reads. The follow up to the lesson, the multiple choice and short answer questions will offer students an opportunity to showcase what they learned. This lesson can take 2 50-minute periods to complete. However, if we want our students to feel confident enough to tackle primary source documents written in the past in unfamiliar English, we need to give them the tools to do so. Even so, I have provided an annotated version of the Mayflower Compact to help your English Language Learners, students on IEPs and 504 Plans, and struggling readers. The Mayflower Compact- Analyzing a Primary Source Document includes the following: History and Reading for History Standards, Objectives, and Learning Targets Essential Question: How do founding documents like the Mayflower Compact shape the principles and practices of governance in societies? 3 Guiding Questions: "What were the key motivations behind the drafting and signing of the Mayflower Compact?"; "How does the language and structure of the Mayflower Compact reflect the religious and political beliefs of the Pilgrims?"; and "What principles of governance are outlined in the Mayflower Compact, and how do they compare with other early democratic documents or principles?" Lesson 1: What are Primary and Secondary Sources Lesson Plan 2: Four Reads: Reading and Analyzing a Primary Source Document The Mayflower Compact in its original wording and in Plain English 4 Reads Questions and Answer Key Multiple choice and Short Answer Assessment and Answer Key
