Reading Rocks!

For a link to the prompt on Mrs. Kallas's blog click here.

I choose Hop on Pop written and illustrated by Dr. Seuss. This book would be good for ages Kindergarten through second grade.





A few words that I would key in on are:

Upside down
Bumped
Yelp
Tomorrow
Today

Some higher level reading questions I would ask Kindergarteners are:

Why would Pat not want to sit on the cactus?
Why is it surprising that fish would be in a tree?
Why would Pop not want to be hopped on?
Can you sit on a bat? Why or why not?

As an activity to follow the reading of this book, I would have the students choose two words that rhymed and have them try to make a sentence with their words.

The following is a video of someone reading Hop on Pop in a singsong manner:
