Wemberly Worried Read Aloud Lesson Ideas
Wemberly Worried and I might be related. I can worry about things and fret over the smallest things. I also recognize Wemberly in some of my students from time to time. Kevin Henkes does it again with capturing the essence of our personalities.
This is a great book to use as part of our Engaging Readers series. These are books that beg to read over and over again!
Me. Every. Day.
Here is a video of the book. I do suggest having the actual book to refer to throughout the week of lessons, but a video is always fun to listen to as well.
Wemberly Worried Read Aloud Lesson Ideas
We start the week by asking students to make a prediction about Wemberly and Jewel.
On Day 2, we work on text details. Because Wemberly Worried has a list of things she worries about and the details don’t need to be placed in order to make sense, we ask students to sort images that are “in the story” and “not in the story.”
We now have our text detail activities, including story retells, available in a digital format!
One of the other reading comprehension questions for this week centers around making connections.
The pieces for this anchor chart are available, as well, to lead one of your lessons on Wemberly’s character and how she changes throughout the story.
