Description
The Paper Kingdom by Helena Ku Rhee is a sweet story of a family who turns an unfortunate situation into an exciting adventure. If you don’t own a copy of the book, check your local library or you might even find an online read-aloud of the text with a simple Google search!
Using mentor texts is one of the best ways to maximize your teaching time. You are able to teach multiple skills, subjects, and topics with just one book!
With this unit, you’ll be able to teach about making inferences using text and visuals, write dialogue, and practice forming irregular verbs.
WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THIS UNIT?
- a week of plans that teach making inferences, interpreting visuals, writing dialogue, and irregular verbs using the book, The Paper Kingdom by Helena Ku Rhee (book not included)
- detailed explicit lessons, including teacher samples
- a week-at-a-glance plan
- digitally converted activities in Google Slides, when applicable
- mentor sentence lesson teaching irregular verbs
- reading lessons to teach about making inferences
- 10 photographs to use for interpreting visuals lessons
- writing lessons to practice dialogue
- samples for models or teacher reference

- short assessments
You will notice that the units align in best practices with my other resources, so if you are already using other components like Mentor Sentences, Better Than Basal, or Everything But The Books, they can easily be incorporated into your plans without breaking stride.
In fact, this unit follows the exact same structure as my Everything But The Books resources!

*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.*
