Mentor Text Linky: What's With This Room?


Language Arts

What's With This Room?
by Tom Lightenheld

Opinion Writing
Debating
Point of View
Predicting

Hilarious


This story is about a little boy
and his disaster of a room.  
The story begins from the point 
of view of his parents and changes
to the little boy's point of view.
(Common Core RL6!)

The illustrations are awesome 
and funny! It is written in rhyme
and is just hilarious!

"Your stinky old running shoes
got up and ran,
outstunk by your underwear
hung from the fan."

The end is a surprise so have
the students make predictions!
Oh, you thought I was going to tell
YOU the ending?!?!

Nope! You will have to get the book
to find out what happens!


Check out a previous post here 
about this story and the packet we
used with it! I plan to add more
ELA activities to the packet...
once I get some software on this
new laptop!

Mentor Text Linky





Amanda and Stacia have a wonderful idea!
I was just telling a colleague the other day 
that I want to teach whole class using mentor 
texts and have the activities to go with them!
I already do use fiction and nonfiction
a lot, but don't always have ready to go
activities for the books!

I couldn't believe when I saw this!
Exactly what I was hoping for!
We will share our favorite texts
and teaching ideas! They are going
to have it organized and everything!

I know it said one book,
but these books just go together!

You can get them in the 
Scholastic Book Order
Pete the Cat and other Groovy Tales...
all 4 books for $13.99!







   



Here are the products I created
to go with these books!

The first is my biggest seller on TpT! Click the pics to check them out!

Point of View and Other Common Core Activities Using Fairy Tales

I hope you link up!
I'd love to read about your 
favorite mentor texts and 
products that go with them!
