Of course you’re busy thinking about school supplies and lunch boxes. Last week, Hadley, Harper, and I were getting into the car to go somewhere and Harper said, “The wind sounds different. It sounds like fall wind.” We listened for a second to see if we could hear the difference between seasonal winds, and I swear I heard the sound of sharpening pencils and pops of three-ring binders. School is a-comin’.
But why not get the kiddos ready (and dare I say excited?) for the stories they’ll sit with when they’re in school? How about a little creative preliminary exercise or two?
There’s no doubt the Superhero cape is a favorite among readers.
Or, how about making a scrapbook of the stories you read from a character’s point of view?
And poetry. There’s never a bad time to think poetically.
There’s still a few days left of summer, and to celebrate those remaining days, our journals are on sale. Plus, Becky designed a Superhero coloring page that we are giving away for free with a purchase of an Elementary or Middle School reading journal.
Design a cape for yourself and a cape for one of the heroes you met in a story. Worksheets will be emailed to (print as many as you like!) upon purchase.
Here’s to finding all kinds of heroes in the last stretch of summer
