I am using the book Enemy Pie by Derek Munson next week for a shared reading lesson.
This book is one of my absolute favorites to read-aloud to my class. It
teaches such a great lesson about how to treat one another and my class
needs a big ole' healthy dose of enemy pie this year!
Since we have been focusing on setting and characters, I made this quick little worksheet to go with our read aloud. Just click on the image to download it from Googledocs.
I also made a generic one that can be used for any story.
We are also focusing on comparing contrasting so I made a little Venn
Diagram to compare a friend and an enemy after reading the story:
Last but not least, I thought I would share my nightly reading log. This is sent home each night (Mon.-Thurs.) with a leveled book in my students' reading folder. Parents and students complete it together for the first few months. After Christmas, I try to have the students fill in the log by themselves(OWNERSHIP!) and just get it initialed by their parents.

That's all folks!
Have a fantastic weekend and GO PATS :)
