This February reading resource is full of reading comprehension, reflection, and templates for dynamic read alouds focused on loving, joyful, and diverse stories. This resource celebrates Valentine's Day, Black History Month, Super Bowl, Groundhog Day, and other fun special February days like Random Acts of Kindness Day, Dental Health Month, National Pizza Day, and so many more!
There are 28 read alouds for all 28 days of February.
There are before, during, and after reading questions for each book that can guide your discussions. You can also have students respond in small groups, partners, or complete a written response for any of the questions in the product.
This resource can be used in many ways!
Option 1: Read aloud each book in person, or search the book title to read aloud via audio book on sites like youtube, and guide the students using the before, during, and after questions provided.
Option 2: Read aloud each book in person, or search the book title to read aloud via audio book on sites like youtube, and add in your own questions that the students can answer using the before, during, and after spaces provided.
