Ballet Cat

Have you read any of the Ballet Cat books yet?  You really need to!  They are so great.  I read Ballet Cat, The Totally Secret Secret for World Read Aloud Day today.  The kids LOVED it!  They actually clapped when I was done reading.  I love it when that happens.

What a great book to talk about friendship and how to be a great friend.  This is a great beginning of the year book when you are setting up your classroom expectations and creating a classroom community. It's also a great book to read during the week of Valentine's Day too!

After talking about friends and how to be a good friend,  the kids completed these pages to draw and write about their ideas.

Now we CAN'T WAIT to get some more Ballet Cat books to read in class!  The class is anxiously awaiting this one....

And this one will also be on our reading list...
