Description

The Wild Christmas Reindeer by Jan Brett is my favorite December book choice. Kids just love Jan Brett’s books and these FUN and ENGAGING comprehension activities work well to highlight the reindeer antics and Teeka’s skill to corral them. Plus, it’s a great segue to caribou research, comparing texts, and more.

You can use the reading activities for the book in guided reading groups, with partner reading, as an interactive read aloud, or for mentor text lessons. The bundle comes in PDF and DIGITAL FOR GOOGLE SLIDES TM. My hope is that it’s lots of fun for your students and that it makes planning easy you!
