One of my favorite winter books is Owl Moon by Jane Yolen. This book is rich in its sensory language, which is why I love to use it to teach about visualization and making mental images. It's a wonderful winter book for guided reading in First Grade and Second Grade.
OWL MOON BOOK ACTIVITIES AND TEACHING IDEAS
It's the story of a father and child who go out into the winter night in search of owls. They see, hear, and feel different things as they search together for owls. Do they see an owl on their dark snowy night? Read the book to find out!
This book companion pack contains activities that help connect Owl Moon with essential literacy skills in First and Second Grade. It's packed with guided reading activities, so you can differentiate to suit your students' learning abilities and needs.
This Owl Moon book study has activities that foster literacy skills such as story elements, vocabulary, making inferences, making text to self connections, visualization and making mental images, offering opinions and advice, story retell, writing activities, problem and solution, reading comprehension, and MORE!
This companion unit can be used as a whole class activity, during small group guided reading time, as individual student work, or as part of a book club. Copy a pack for each student, and you're ready to go!
This guided reading unit will save you tons of time, is no prep, and is great to leave for a sub!
