WE DON'T EAT OUR CLASSMATES
Have you seen this book We Don't Eat our Classmates by Ryan T. Higgins? It is my new favorite back to school read aloud!
Penelope Rex is nervous to start school...and what's worse, her class is filled with children! So she ate them, because children are delicious!
Here are a couple of my favorite pages in this book:

WE DON'T EAT OUR CLASSMATES ACTIVITIES AND TEACHING IDEAS
We Don't Eat Our Classmates is a great book for the beginning of the school year. It shares an important message for students, when they see throughout the story that Penelope has to learn how everyone is the same on the inside. Your students will LOVE Penelope the dinosaur, as she learns how to make friends at school!
I've created a book study filled with companion activities to go with this back to school book that I'm sure your students will LOVE! It's packed with literacy activities that will develop your students' reading comprehension skills by working on:
story mapping
text-to-self connections
opinion pages
