I would use this book to start a conversation on how to stay safe in and out of the classroom. Also, this book can be used to start thinking about classroom rules for the year.

Review:
This book won a Caldecott medal in 1996. It is about a police officer who teaches students at schools about what to do to be safe. However, no one ever listens to him until he brings along Gloria, the police dog. Now, everyone listens and there has not been an accident since.
“Officer Buckle thought of his best safety tip yet… ALWAYS STICK WITH YOUR BUDDY!l
Officer Buckle and Gloria is an absolutely adorable book! It is a perfect book for school settings and even discussing safety in schools
I would probably use this book in the classroom to help with the rule making process. Good rules are few in number, easy to follow, and easy to remember. When you have a list of rules as long as Officer Buckles they become hard to remember even if you have a helpful K-9 to demonstrate the rules for you.
1996 Caldecott Medal winning book. Officer Buckle and Gloria is about and officer and his K-9 companion. Officer Buckle gives safety speeches and his speeches were not very engaging until Gloria came along and helped spice them up. Buckle had so many rules and he would just rattle them off one after another. But Gloria came along and help the audience engage in the content of the rules which help them remember the speech and Buckles tips.
Officer Buckle and Gloria is a great book for friendship and teamwork. Without Officer Buckle and Gloria working as a team, they were not giving the message across with their safty tips. It shows the effects on teamwork and friendships and how they effected their audience. This picture book was written and illustrated by Peggy Rathmann. It was awarded the Caldecott Award for its amazing illustrations. This is a great fiction children's....
Officer Buckle and Gloria! 🐕This MF, RA, Caldecott Medal book is a super fun story that teaches the importance of friendship. Our main character, Officer Buckle, is great at his job and knowledgeable too, but had a hard time getting students to listen to his safety tips! Gloria is new to Napville‘s police department and is great at obeying commands. Quickly the officer and the dog befriend each other but have a couple ups and downs along the way.
I would use this book in the beginning of my year to show the kids the importance of following rules.
This award winner follows a safety officer that is trying his hardest to get to the kids. through his best efforts, nothing works. that is until his new trusty sidekick, a dog named gloria comes along and shows the kids how safety is important.
This book, a Caldecott Honor book, is about a police officer and his dog Gloria and their journey presenting safety tips to schools.
I would use this book I my future classroom as a way to introduce police officers and police dogs as well as a fun read that the children would enjoy.
“At the bottom of the pile was a note written on a paper star”. This moment in the book can lead to a lesson plan where a teacher allows children to cut out paper stars and write safety tips on them.
This book teaches students plenty of safety tips as well as teamwork. This would be a great book to read to children of any age.
Award: Caldecott Medal
Review: Officer buckle loves giving safety assemblies, but he‘s incredibly boring. One day, police dog Gloria acts out the safety procedures behind him and all the children cheer, making Officer Buckle believe they are cheering for him. Full of numerous safety tips and hilarious cartoons, this is a great read aloud. You don‘t have to be a dog lover to fall in love with this book the characters have so much personality.
when officer buckles talk starts to put the student to sleep his police dog gloria starts to preform a show behind him that the student absolutely love.
I love the way the illustrations were broken into different sections of the page along with text. This helps the reader section each scenario and understand the plot better.
Officer Buckle demonstrates safety tips for children and helps them to understand very important rules. Officer Buckle has a police dog named Gloria that helps along their journey and adds to the exciting plot.
I love the quote on this last page because it perfect demonstrates the friendship between the two.
The pictures in this book are eye catching and colorful. They are adorable just like this story.
This is a story about friendship. Officer Buckle notices that the safety speeches he gives to the students at Napville Elementary aren‘t very effective and productive. One day his police dog named Gloria accompanies him and he quickly realizes that she is the key to the children‘s attention.
Officer Buckle and Gloria is one of the rare Caldecott Award winners where the author is also the illustrator! This book is about a sheriff describing safety tips to schools around the community, while his dog puts on a performance, that shows that the two really do need each other to succeed. This MF book would work well as a RA.
