Just a Dream by Chris VanAllsburg is a great book to use to celebrate Earth Day, as a connection with your ecology unit, or for comprehension skill modeling. Chris VanAllsburg’s detailed illustrations provide excellent opportunities for making inferences and theme extension, but the story details demonstrate his author’s craft too.
This great title works well as a mentor text for writing or for guided reading. You can use this bundle with whole groups for skill modeling for reading and writing, for book clubs or guided reading groups, and for paired reading activities. You have BOTH black and white pdf for printing and Google Slides TM for digital needs. Plus, there is an Earth Day Lapbook Project which can be used completely separate from the book activities.
The unit is set up in a before/during/after format and includes the following:
57 pages total (1/2 PDF and 1/2 Google Slides TM)
The unit includes two parts, activities to use WITH Just a Dream and activities to use as extension. You have the lapbook project as a printable with photos showing how to put it together AND a digital version. You can choose which parts you’d like to use based on your standards as well as the order. However, I do provide before, during, and after reading activities for close reading.
