Habit 5 Book Ideas

Alphabet books are a great way to share Habit 5 with Pre-K and Kindergarten. They must seek first to understand what the letter looks like and what sound the letter makes before guessing what might be on that abc page.!
Q is for Duck is a higher level of the same concept. Terrific use of analogies for grades 1 and 2 as they Seek First to Understand... then to be understood (trying to write their own page for the book)

Who Stole the Mona Lisa is a fun story from the perspective of the painting. (Great CCSS). The kids can take on the perspective of  objects and write poems or stories about how they would feel. Blabberize is a great technology tool to share these projects electronically. (See Cheryl or I for help with this project if interested)

Storm is Coming is one of my favorite predictable stories with first grade. They must use their schema and dive into the different character's perspective to know Who Storm is?  


Habit 5 is a wonderful opportunity to really dive into vocabulary and multiple meanings of words. This is a fun story,


Pre K and K kids love this story. They will go back and forth as they try to see other's perspective of the pictures in this text. Is it a duck or a rabbit? Seek First....
