I pulled this out and Lane informed Nina and I that he had "already read that in Kindergarten..." then proceeded to spoil the whole plot ??? We enjoyed it anyways! #raisingreaders #scarathlon #teammonstermash @StayCurious

This was sort of like a Halloween just-so-story. I had an audio copy of it, but would definitely have preferred a print one with the illustrations.

Linsy We found an animation of the book on overdrive and I was worried the kids would be bored, but my four-year-old absolutely loves it! 3y

1. My mom always made me costumes that could also tie in with our school's storybook parade (which I---or rather she---always won). This year was The Very Hungry Caterpillar.

2. I don't remember many Halloween books from childhood. Maybe the tagged one or Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark.

Did you do Halloween as a child, @LoriTP ?

TheSpineView Love that costume! 🧡🎃🖤📚 4y
ImperfectCJ @TheSpineView Mom had a thing for making costumes that made it difficult to get through doors or ride in cars. I suspect that in a previous life she designed clothing with bustles, hoop skirts, and puffed sleeves. 4y
TheSpineView @ImperfectCJ I can see that! 4y

Another batch of Halloween books I read today.

🎃Duck and Goose was adorable with fun artwork.
👻Splat was cute as always.
🎃J is for Jack O'Lantern is a great book offering background information on Halloween history and traditions geared towards young readers.

My favorite was The Little Old Lady. Timeless story that is perfect to read with little ones this time of year.

This F book is great for a S in the classroom. An old lady went on a walk and as she walked different types of clothing would appear in front of her and she would tell them go away I am not afraid of you but she would always walk faster. For the storytelling you can be each thing that comes up to her and you can do the stomp, wiggle, clap, and so on that the book tells you about. About author: https://filmmedia.berkeley.edu/people/linda-williams/

KatiaP UDL 1.1 offer ways of customizing the display of information is perfect for storytelling because you are not just reading the story to them, but are putting on a performance. ESOL strategy 15 reinforce the key ideas again and again is great for this book because it is very repetitive. #UCFLAE3414SP20 4y
DrSpalding This is the perfect book for a storytelling and you aligned your universal design and English learner strategies well. I usually perform an interactive read aloud with this one around Halloween! This is a fun way to incorporate the book as well. 4y

Thought I‘d listen to some audios for #scarathlon while doing a puzzle today and found this cute Halloween story on Libby. We had done this as a story walk a few years ago, and it‘s still fun! 6pts for #teamslaughter for being directly related to Halloween and participation point.

This is one of my favorite children's fiction books! Being a music ed major, this book provides tons of opportunities to incorporate instruments into the story. I've done a lesson where kids play drums and shakers on certain parts of the book. Even read aloud as a story, it's great for Halloween! I found a link for the script where a teacher did readers theatre. ❤ http://www.timelessteacherstuff.com/readerstheater/LittleOldLady.pdf #UCFLAE3414sp17

DrSpalding This is a great book. In the fall I normally model an interactive read aloud. Your resource is another wonderful extension. 7y
AlanaA I love your idea of incorporating music into a read aloud activity! Just another way to keep kids engaged (: 7y
Maya.A Allowing the students to play instruments is a great way to get them involved in the story! This is a great way to open students up to their fears. 7y
DrSpalding Your storytelling! 7y
