NO, DAVID!
Kids LOVE the character David, found in the popular series by David Shannon. Maybe they can relate to David's character a little bit?! The book No, David! is a Caldecott Honor Book. This fun read aloud, paired with this book companion unit, will have students in Kindergarten and First Grade practicing essential literacy and reading comprehension skills in a fun and engaging way!
NO DAVID BOOK ACTIVITIES AND TEACHING IDEAS
In the book No, David! the main character David is always hearing the word NO. NO to stealing cookies, NO to running in the house covered in mud, NO to splashing water out of the bathtub.
David also hears things like 'Be quiet!' and 'Settle down!' and 'Don't play with your food!'
Even though David hears 'no' regarding his wild actions, his mother tells him 'Yes, David, I love you.' This is a great book to teach about the story elements of character traits, cause and effect, and text to self connections!
This book study unit is packed with fun activities that will help your Kindergarten and First Grade students with story elements, making predictions, character traits, making text to self connections, author's purpose, main idea, making inferences, vocabulary, writing, giving opinions and advice, problem and solution, story retell, reading comprehension, and much more!
These activities can be used for whole class instruction, 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 David book companion will save you tons of planning time, is no prep, and is great to leave for a sub!
Want to make sure you are hitting the reading standards for Kindergarten or First Grade? This resource includes ELA standards charts for Common Core, TEKS and VA SOL, showing you exactly which skills your students are learning while doing these activities!
NO DAVID CRAFT
This No David craftivity has students draw and write a story retell or write about their favorite part of the story. This is a great follow-up activity after reading the book, and the craft makes a fun bulletin board display to showcase student learning.
