Dragons Love Tacos lesson plans with Seesaw preloaded digital activities, a PowerPoint for Google Slides, and printables! Students will love responding to literature with this fun story.
Dragons Love Tacos
Making Predictions
After a few pages, students learn that dragons don’t like to eat anything spicy. Then, the story reveals that there are jalapenos in the salsa. Students make a prediction on what they think is going to happen next in the story.
Cause and Effect
Here is where you discuss the events of the story with your students and talk about the effects of those events.
Making Connections
Students write about a connection they made with the boy in the story. They love this activity because they get to tell you all about their room and what they like.
Author’s Purpose
This can sometimes be a difficult reading comprehension skill for students. This is where whole-group discussions can help students develop and build their understanding.
Opinion
This is also a favorite for students! They have the opportunity to tell you about their favorite part of the story. The goal is for them to also tell you why that part is their favorite. If your kindergarten students aren’t quite ready for that, it is quite alright! However, first graders should be able to explain why.
These fun reading comprehension lesson plans and activities are available in the February Digital Engaging Readers unit. You will also receive lesson plans and activities for three other great titles! Check it out, here:
