Good Morning, Neighbor
Good Morning, Neighbor | Davide Cali
1 post
A mouse decides one morning to make an omelet, but needs an egg, and sets out to find one. On his search, he eventually finds everything needed to bake a cake, including apples, flour, and sugar, but also those most precious ingredients—community and friends, from a hedgehog to an owl to a raccoon—and learns about the unexpected gifts of asking for what you need and sharing what you have.

Spoiler alert!! I‘m using this absolutely gorgeous and heartwarming book, Good Morning, Neighbor (F) written by my man Davide Cali and illustrated by Maria Dek for my ST. This is a beyond perfect book for a ST, but I‘m doing mine with a little twist — from a different perspective! I wanted to try to make it funny instead of cutesy, but it could go either way. #LAE3414sp19

cwright http://www.readwritethink.org/classroom-resources/lesson-plans/multiple-perspect... This multi-session LP is a lesson on perspective that can be adapted for any grade. I adore the intro activity. I would start the day with an RA of the book as-is, then present it as my alt-perspective ST instead of the book listed. Cali‘s fractured fairy tales or I Forgot My Homework Because... series could be my added — 6y
cwright — resources which could even make this part of an AS on my fav author. The coolest part of this LP is that it encourages students to create their own writing from alternate perspectives through research from multiple content areas, and ends with self-assessment. The ST alone employs UDL 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 2.1, 3.2, and 5.2, and ESOL 14, 15, 17, and 18. 6y
kelseymccormick @cwright I love the resource you provided. I especially like at the end of the sessions that the students are asked to self reflect. What a good way to end a lesson! Great post! 6y
