I choose this book to read in class to my partners because I think it has got eassy vocabulary ( some words are new for them but they will learn them) and grammar for infant education.
The sentences aren´t long and it appears one per page.
The layuot of the book is also useful because I think you can follow the book just looking at the pictures.
I have also work this book with one girl of years old, and when we finished reading it she said that she loved it.
Here there are some activities that you can do before, while and after reading:
-Before reading:
- Flashcards with different shapes.
- We can also show them the cover of the book and the teacher can ask things. F.e: if they had ever seen a witch.
- We can talk about witches, it can be useful to introduce Halloween.
-While reading:
- while the teacher is reading we can stop and make the children predict things such as what would come out of Meg´s cauldron?
- the teacher can also ask how many cabbage does the dinosaur ate? so we can also work with numbers.
- After reading:
- they can create a dinosaur.
- they can look for the shapes we had worked before in the pictures.
