Enemy Pie for a Friday Freebie!

TGIF everybody!!!!!

I am heading out for *date* night with the boy, but before I go I thought I would link up and share a Friday Freebie with you!

I am using the book Enemy Pie by Derek Munson next week for a shared reading lesson.

This book is one of my absolute favorites to read-aloud to my class. It
teaches such a great lesson about how to treat one another and my class
needs a big ole’ healthy dose of enemy pie this year!

Since we have been focusing on setting and characters, I made this quick
little worksheet to go with our read aloud. Just click on the image to
download it from Googledocs.

I also made a generic one that can be used for any story.

We are also focusing on comparing contrasting so I made a little Venn
Diagram to compare a friend and an enemy after reading the story:

Last but not least, I thought I would share my nightly reading log. This
is sent home each night (Mon.-Thurs.) with a leveled book in my
students’ reading folder. Parents and students complete it together for
the first few months. After Christmas, I try to have the students fill
in the log by themselves(OWNERSHIP!) and just get it initialed by their
parents.
