3 different colour schemes to choose from or you could mix and match

Use this activity to sequence the events in There was an Old Lady who Swallowed a Turkey. Each event is pictured on a turkey feather that, when completed, creates an adorable turkey that sequences the story. Print on cardstock to make it more durable or mat it on a large piece of construction paper. Students will color and cut out the turkey feathers and body, glue them together, and have a great "craftivity" that tells what happens in this adorable book.

This is included in my sequencing activity bundle available here.

This engaging resource is ideal for both literacy centers and Response to Intervention (RTI) sessions, accommodating up to six students. Additionally, you can add a playful twist by turning it into a word bingo game with your students. As a bonus, I've included two adorable recording sheets to enhance the learning experience, allowing for differentiated instruction.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

I've included various prompts for learners to use who want to enrich their reading and go deeper. It can be difficult to remember all that's going on with the plot, and to not disrupt the reading when new words pass our view, so I've created a template for readers who like to notate their reading. They can do so while they read, or it can turn into almost a test of their memory after they finish a book!

"The Naughty Ant and the Anteater" can be a valuable addition to an educator's classroom for several reasons:

Moral Lesson: The fable offers a clear moral lesson about the importance of honesty and trust. By exploring the consequences of the naughty ant's deceit, students learn that dishonesty can lead to dire outcomes and the loss of trust among peers. This lesson encourages discussions about the significance of integrity and the impact of our actions on others.

Relatable Characters: The fable features relatable characters, such as the hardworking ants and the mischievous naughty ant. Students can easily connect with these characters, enabling them to engage more deeply with the story and its moral message. This relatability allows for meaningful discussions and reflections on personal experiences.

Critical Thinking: The fable presents a dilemma for the ants in the story. Students are prompted to consider how they would react in a similar situation and whether they would trust the naughty ant's warning when the real danger appears. This encourages critical thinking skills and promotes discussions on judgment, discernment, and the consequences of making hasty assumptions.

Empathy and Perspective-Taking: As the story progresses, students witness the impact of the naughty ant's prank on the colony. By exploring the emotions of the deceived ants, students develop empathy and understanding of the consequences of their own actions. This fosters a sense of compassion and consideration for others' feelings.

Classroom Discussions: The fable serves as a springboard for meaningful classroom discussions. Educators can facilitate conversations about honesty, trustworthiness, and the importance of open communication. Students can share their thoughts, opinions, and personal experiences related to the moral lesson, promoting a collaborative and respectful learning environment.

Writing and Creative Activities: Following the reading of the fable, educators can engage students in writing activities such as rewriting the story with an alternative ending or creating their own fables with different moral lessons. These activities encourage creativity, critical thinking, and reinforce the understanding of moral values.

Overall, "The Naughty Ant and the Anteater" offers an engaging and relatable story that can stimulate meaningful discussions, develop moral reasoning, and promote character development within the classroom.

~ The One Hundredth Day of School! is a great book to connect with the 100th day of school. Guided reading groups will enjoy making connections to their own projects, activities, classroom and school. The 10 page packet can easily be differentiated. ~Questions are based on Bloom’s Taxonomy and use higher level thinking skills. Students also think beyond the text to respond to many questions. Many questions elicit story recall responses. ~Included in the unit: -comprehension questions for each chapter -Ready, Freddy game – focus on characters and their actions ~ When I use this unit with one of my guided reading groups, the unit can last from a week to two weeks depending on how often the group meets. My guided reading groups also set their own expectations/assignments for completing their books. Sometimes students work with partner to complete assigned chapters. ~The game provides a wonderful review for the students. ~ The One Hundredth Day of School! is an AR level 3.0 book.
