What is The Book Nook?

The Book Nook is a collection of interactive read-aloud companion resources that focus on helping young readers develop oral language skills, higher-order thinking skills, and comprehension skills.

The Book Nook activities provide opportunities for students to express their ideas collaboratively and individually through drawing, writing, and dramatic play.

You have two options when using this resource. You can simply read the texts for enjoyment and facilitate discussions OR you can stretch the read-alouds over multiple days and conduct a whole group close reading lesson. It’s entirely up to you and what works best with your existing curriculum/schedule.

Features Included:

• a range of reading genres (realistic fiction, nonfiction, folktale, poetry)
• authentic, high-quality literature
• close reading activities
• vocabulary activities
• higher-order thinking questions
• stop points for discussion time
• anchor chart ideas
• opportunities for collaborative and individual oral and written responses
