Should I Share My Ice Cream? Mo Willems' Elephant and Piggie Book Discussion, bLesson and Activities. Kids Book Club Guided Reading Discussion Questions and Virtual Social Emotional Learning Activities and Lesson 1 of 4: Teach social emotional learning skills and early reading skills as we read and discuss four children’s books and complete text connection drawing activities.
The included text-dependent questions help children practice every common core reading literature skill for Grade K-2: Inference skills, using text evidence, sequencing, summary, main idea, problem/solution, compare/contrast, characterization, character response to challenges, theme, text connections, title, illustrations, vocabulary, point of view, genre, making predictions and more! Perfect for parents, classroom or homeschool teachers who want a no prep read along activity or educational videos for effortless no prep learning activities via educational screen time.
All the picture books will give children the opportunity to practice every K-2 reading skill while also introducing the following social emotional learning skills: Empathy, sharing, how to be a good friend, listening skills, gratitude, overcoming disappointment, responding to challenges/obstacles, growth mindset, adapting to change, self-esteem, being yourself, individuality, anti-bullying, assertiveness, optimism, positive attitude.
For the drawing activity, drawing materials (paper and pencil, markers, crayons, etc.) are recommended. If materials are not available or children are enjoying the video on-the-go, they can use the drawing tool on their device’s notepad (Notes app), type their response (with adult help) or come back to the activity later.
My primary goal is for you to complete this video knowing your child has mastered important social emotional learning and early reading skills, and is now prepared to succeed academically and socially in kindergarten, first, grade, third grade, elementary school and beyond. Character Education Story Time Instructional Video uses children's books that teach social emotional learning (SEL).
