She is just such a clever lady...
she is one of my literary heroes!
Of course, one of my favorites is:
If You Give A Mouse A Cookie
Totally one of those books
you read thinking
"Why didn't I think of that!"

For the next few weeks,
I'll be reading her fabulous
circle stories to my students.
Cool!
Cool!
In honor of her wonderful books,
I am making this a working post
where I'm going to continue to
add to as I go along!

So....pull up a chair,
put your feet up,
get some cookies and milk,

If You Give A Mouse A Cookie Story Sequencing Cards
Have your students really understand the concept
of this being a circular, repetitive story.
My students really enjoyed doing this activity!
It was great for them to strengthen
their reading and cutting skills,
and they LOVED that they could easily retell
the story to their families at home.

If You Give A Mouse A Cookie sequencing pictures also come in
large, circular cards for students to hold up during whole group.
If You Give A Mouse A Cookie Puppets:
I made the next activity to help my students read
CVC Words and/or practice their letter naming and
letter sounds depending on what they needed to work on.
If You Give A Mouse A Cookie:
CVC and Letter Reading Practice
How many cvc words can
your students read in one minute?
I had my students use a button to mark
where they stopped each time,
so that they could see if they could beat their time.
I'm thinking giving everyone 1 small "cookie"
from Cookie Crisp cereal to move around
as a time marker may make it even more fun
for a special occassion.
(I just couldn't get to the store in time!)
How many alphabet letters can
your students read in one minute?
After reading the letter names
as quickly as they can,
have your students go back and try
to read as many alphabet letter
SOUNDS in one minute!

I actually ended up using these circle "puppets" for
my students to use for retelling the story while using
the story sequence sheet. They moved the "puppet"
around the pictures as they retold the story.

If You Give A Pig A Pancake is another of my favorites!
Here is simple puppet for you to use....Enjoy!
If You Give A Pig A Pancake: Character Puppet
I'm really excited about this sequencing sheet...
it took me a while to make (long while),
but I think the end result is well worth the time!

Yay!
Time to sleep!
The next day: I used the pig sequencing activity with my class.
They loved it, but I found out that there was a TYPO.....
"Boo Hiss!" quoting my buddy Angela!
Please re-download if you got it before 11/7/13....
Also, my kids wanted actual bubble pictures
added to the bubble bath bottle,
so I changed that for everyone!
Here is a handwriting sheet I made
that has of some of my Kindergarten sight words.
I'm giving you the option of using print or modern manuscript.
My kids just REALLY needed to work on their
handwriting skills, so at a teacher station they'll practice
these words using the correct letter formation on white boards
and then write the words on the sheet with the cute pictures.
If You Give A Ping A Pancake: Perfect Penmanship
If You Give A Pig A Pancake Handwriting Sheets...
These free, printable pages great for
practicing both handwriting and sight words!
I included both print and modern manuscript,
because I have worked at different schools
that require each type of handwriting style.
Enjoy!

If You Give A Cat A Cupcake
Cat And Cupcake Rhyming CVC Words "Craft"
I made this last year, and my kids really liked
"feeding" the cat each time they read
one of the words on the cupcake.
Just have your students color and cut
the cat and the cupcake out....
then they help the cat to read the words
on the cupcake and pretend to feed him a bite.
Cat wants to eat
a yummy, yummy treat.
Read all the words that rhyme,
so he can have cupcake time!

If You Give A Cat A Cupcake: Story Sequencing
My kids really like putting these
sequencing sheets together
and using the "puppets" to walk around
the sequence sheet to retell the story.
It's been great for their reading skills
as well as their cutting skills!
If You Give A Cat A Cupcake sequencing pictures also come in
large, circular cards for students to hold up during whole group.
Here are the puppets that can go
with the sequencing & retelling activity.

the difference between the
lowercase letters "b" and "d".
I don't know about you, but my
Kindergarteners can ALWAYS use a
chance to practice these tricky letters!
