For one of my Field Based assignments during my first semester here at A&M, I had to do a read aloud with my third grade students. I had a great time doing this lesson, and so did the kids. After the kids tested all week, it was good to do an assignment that would have been fun for the kids. The book I chose for the read aloud was The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything by Linda Williams. I had the students do sequence. After that easy assignment, I had put the kids into groups, and they were to come up with something scary that maybe the little old lady might be scared of. The students were involve with the story, they would join in and read the book with me. The kids had a great time. This website has a lot of great lessons that can go with the book. http://www.nancypolette.com/LitGuidesText/LittleOldLadyWhoWasNotAfraidOfAnything.htm
This book is great for any grade. You can do sequence, sounds, imagination, new vocabulary, senses, research, higher order thinking, writing, and singing. It's a great book, especially for the fall season, and Halloween.
