Eric Carle Author Study


We started our Eric Carle author study and my kids love it! Every day we go in our "book clubs" to discuss our books. We have three book clubs with 6 students in each of them. They each have a different book to discuss. Book clubs are such a great way for students to use accountable talk. I love to hear what they discuss about their book. After they talk with their book club partners they come in front of the class and share one new thing they learned about Eric Carle books.

If you watch the clip, you can hear one partner telling his friend what a fin is. How cute!!

    How creative and a great opportunity for students to learn to organize and express their thoughts too!

    Thank you! They also did an Eric Carle Reader's Theater. It was the cutest little performance! They are so ready for first grade. :)
