Go Away, Big Green Monster by Ed Emberley was created for children to chase away their nighttime fears. Students can turn the pages of this die-cut book and watch the Big Green Monster grow. Each page adds a new body part/description to the monster. Then, when the child is ready to show him who‘s in charge, they‘ll turn the remaining pages and watch him disappear! I believe every classroom should have this unique book in its library!

olivia_danko This modern fantasy would be best taught using UDL 3.1 (Activate or supply background knowledge) because it would open up a great discussion about our bedtime fears and classmates can relate to each other.
The ELS strategy I'd use is EL 14 (Simplify your speech by making it slower and redundant) This book would be perfect to slow your speech down because it would create the build-up of seeing the complete monster.

DrSpalding This is a unique book. This could be used to teach color words/high frequency words in kindergarten as well. 3y

This book is perfect for teaching children how to scare away those monsters!

When I read to my Kindergarten, they love interacting with this one and yelling at the different parts to “go away!”

And as a side note, last night was my first opportunity to dress up this year - my boyfriend was the voodoo doctor and I was the broken doll.

Made a couple cute Halloween inspired dishes for our little get-together!
