Get ready to laugh with your class by reading the book Amelia Bedelia's First Day of School. After they read the book and do activities comparing their first day of school with Amelia' they will then have conversations around the story. They will also participate in writing activities; predicting what her other days of school might be like. Great way to break the ice with new learners!
