I love the story- Big Pumpkin by Erica Silverman. Its a great book to read aloud during Halloween and is perfect for practicing retelling skills. The repetitive text makes it easier for young children to comprehend the story. Its also a fun story to enact during assemblies or class presentations.
I made a set of sequencing cards that goes perfectly with this book. Use it during guided reading or simply place them in your literacy center.
Encourage young children to look at the pictures, arrange them in an order and retell the story in their own words. Emerging readers can even attempt to read the simple sentences written on the cards.
Get the cards from my TPT STORE.
