    WHAT’S INCLUDED?
    I walk you through each day’s lesson for 5 weeks- all the work is done! I’ve even done all the thinking for you when it comes to revising and imitating! 🙂 Each lesson includes the teacher sentence page, the student sentence page, a lesson plan page with possibilities for all 4 days, an interactive activity with the focus skill, and a quiz aligned with CCSS with answer key.

    Please download the preview file to see the layout. There are 5 lessons for the following books:
    -Katie’s Trunk by Ann Turner
    relative adverbs
    -John, Paul, George, and Ben by Lane Smith
    prepositional phrases
    -Can’t You Make Them Behave, King George? by Jean Fritz
    relative pronouns
    -George Washington’s Socks by Elvira Woodruff
    adjectives
    -The Scarlet Stockings Spy by Trinka Hakes Noble
    simile and alliteration

    I chose books that would be in most personal libraries or school media centers. All of these are personal favorites of mine!

    *The mentor sentence lessons I have created are adapted from the ideas of Jeff Anderson. These lessons were born from the routine that worked well in my classroom, and the demos and examples I present are variations of Jeff Anderson’s methods. This is not the only way to “do” mentor sentences in your classroom.*

    🌞 Groundhog Gets A Say is a fun book for kids o 🌞 Groundhog Gets A Say is a fun book for kids of any age, but I especially liked to use this #mentortext to tie in some research skills and #opinionwriting!

The book is written as a narrative, but is filled with facts about groundhogs as the main character tries to convince everyone that he deserves more than just ONE day of recognition.

The unit I made for this book includes printables for text features, note-taking from text, fact and opinion, main idea and details, context clues, a writing brainstorm organizer, plus a #mentorsentence lesson for relative pronouns and contextual vocabulary activities! 

I'd love you to check it out on my website at the link in my profile: https://www.ideasbyjivey.com/product/groundhog-gets-a-say-unit/
