Instructional Ideas

  • During a teacher-led learning center, have learners practice reading the story as a small group
  • Send a copy of the mini-book home with children so they can practice reading with their parents

Classroom Considerations

  • When making a class set of the mini-books seek the help of a classroom aide, parent volunteer, or upper elementary student

Pros

  • Two additional mini-book templates are provided that allow children to either write the text or create the illustrations for the story
  • A separate document is included that offers instructions for assembling the mini-books

Cons

  • None
