'I Can Do It!' Books



Books from our weekly theme of 'I Can Do It!'

'Leo the Late Bloomer' by Robert Kraus.  See and hear the story HERE
  • An excellent book that reminds us all that we develop at different paces!
  • This is an opportunity to ask predicting questions.  Example: What do you think will happen to Leo?
'The Little Engine That Could' by Watty Piper.  See and hear the story HERE
  • Note: This story/video is 8 minutes long.
  • A great story about the power of positive thinking!  Even when things are difficult, we just need to tell ourselves that: 'I CAN DO IT!'
'Read and Rise' by Sandra L. Pinkey.  See and hear the story HERE
  • A great book!  Reading, and learning to read, allows us to learn about different experiences and learn more about the things that interest us.  As we learn to identify the letters of the alphabet, and the sounds associated with them, I remind the students that doing this will help them get ready to read!  Keep working to identify letters and practice the letter sounds!
  • Questions to ask during, or after, the book.  What does each child like reading about?  How can you tell?  (Use the picture clues!)
