Trade books that could be associated with my Unit Plan

I had fun looking up different books that could be associated with the English Language Arts unit plans. There are so many good and informational books for the younger ages that it could be hard to choose. So I narrowed it down to some that I did use in my lesson plans and others that could be used. 1) If You Give a Mouse a Cookie: This book I did use in my lesson plan as a sequencing book for the children to answer sequencing questions about. 2)Be Kind: This book was used as a writing assignment lesson in my plans for students to relate and write a short story about a time when someone was kind to them. 3)The Very Hungry Caterpillar: With a lesson plan for beginning middle and end I thought it would be fun to tie in an ELA lesson with a science lesson. Students love butterflies so I thought it would be fun for them to learn about the life cycle. 4)From Caterpillar to Butterfly: This is a nonfiction book that students would notice the difference between nonfiction and fiction and compare and contrast. 5)Love You Forever: This would be used in a writing assignment around mothers day since it is based around a mother and her son. It shows the everlasting connection so I thought it would be fun to have students write something they loved about their mother. 6) The Ugly Duckling: This would be another lesson about being nice or even the beginning middle and end lesson. 7)If You Were a Capital Letter: This story go through the stages of writing a sentence from capitalizing the first letter of a sentence to punctuation marks. 8)Brown Bear, Brown Bear What do You see?: Describing writing assignment. Students would have to write a couple of sentences describing something and then they would draw a picture to go with their sentence. 9)Green Eggs and Ham: This would be used during the Poem section of the units. It rhymes really well and it will show students different words that rhyme. 10)The Night Before Kindergarten: Describing how they felt the night before they started kindergarten. I feel it would help each student if they knew that the feelings they are expressing is normal.

  1. I LOVE your book list! I have read several of them, such as If You Give a Mouse a Cookie and Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What do You See, over and over to my children when they were little. I think I still have some of their board books around here somewhere. Thanks for sharing a great list and for bringing back some great memories for me!
