Don't forget all the great options for integration that are offered on RazKids and Reading A to Z! You can assign texts for students & use projectiable books.
Epic Books is another great site to visit. You can create collections on topics for your students to read on their own or use the book on the smartboard for whole group. Don't forget that you can create quizzes to help support comprehension!
Using a fiction book study to lead into a nonfiction unit of study is a great way to build background knowledge to support connections and engagement.
Thundercake by Patricia Pollacco is a great book to introduce a weather unit!
Jump into your DE Science Textbook!
Students can also go into DE Board Builder and create a board all about thunderstorms to demonstrate what they have learned.
Your budding scientists can participate in science experiments like how to track a storm.
In the fiction book, the characters count in between lightning & thunder to determine the location of the storm. Students could use a simple lamp and the sheet below!
They can watch a video on DE for how to track a storm.
See how science, reading, and art can be integrated too!
