Description
These 1st grade October reading lessons give you four weeks of read aloud lessons and activities.
Rooted in Reading for 1st grade gives you everything you need to build a love of reading in your classroom. Each week centers on a read aloud. You read the book throughout the week and model how to think deeply, ask questions, and monitor comprehension, while students work through activities made for 1st grade. All lessons and activities are aligned with the Common Core Standards and TEKS, and you can use the unit as your full curriculum or pick and choose what fits your students.
