Fun Fall Fiction and Non-fiction Freebies

I like to focus on the difference between fiction and non-fiction at this time of the year with my kinders and firsties which is great because there are so many great fall and Halloween books to read.

To go along with first grade's apple unit I use these 2 books to talk about fiction and non-fiction...

The Mouse and the Apple by Stephen Butler

The Zieglers and Their Apple Orchard by Alice Flanagan

Using these books, we also begin to talk about character, setting, and plot.

For fun, I use these fun fiction books about fall and Halloween with my kinders...

There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed Some Leaves by Lucille Colandro

The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything by Linda Williams

Creepy Carrots by Aaron Reynolds

These books are also great to use to talk about character, setting and plot.

I have made activity sheets to go along with each of these books and have bundled all of these into one fun freebie for you.  You can download it HERE.  Let me know what you think.

Happy Fall!

New Fall Bookmarks

If you follow my blog at all, you know how much my kiddos LOOOOOOOOVE bookmarks.  I try to make new bookmarks each month, holiday, or season, but I realized I didn't really have any just basic fall bookmarks.  So....

New fall bookmarks are here!

I created a set of 4 free bookmarks which includes 2 color and 2 black and white bookmarks for your kiddos to color.  You can download this FREEBIE  HERE.  Please let me know what you think.

I also created a set of 24 bookmarks which includes 12 colored bookmarks and 12 black and white bookmarks for your students to color.  You  can purchase this pack HERE for $2.00 in my TpT store.

Hope you enjoy!
