Looking for classroom activities that are both educational and fun for the month of October? This book companion resource is perfect for keeping your class engaged in learning activities during the excitement of the Halloween season.
There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Bat! Book Companion is a great resource for elementary teachers who want to use the story to help their students improve comprehension through retellings and sequencing.
The resource includes a variety of activities, such as:
- Sequencing cards: These cards can be used to help students put the events of the story in order. Use them in a pocket chart, glue them to popsicle sticks or leave them on a table at a literacy center.
- Cut and Paste Sequencing Pages: Students can use these pages and sentence strips to retell the story to their classmates or to themselves.
- Retelling worksheets: These worksheets can be used to assess students' understanding of the story and their ability to retell it.
- Retelling props: Students can retell and act out the story as they feed the old lady using student work mats.
If this looks like something that your class would also enjoy, you can see more at the store here!
The most important thing is to make sure that your students are having fun and staying engaged in learning when they have all things Halloween on their minds! :)
Happy Teaching!
