The winter break has waved goodbye, and it’s time to hit the books again! Your little kindergarteners are bouncing with excitement to dive back into their learning adventures. What literary gems are ready to roll? Check out my top pick of January Read Alouds For Kindergarten, along with some fun, interactive activities that will make these stories come to life!
Jan Brett Books
I am absolutely head over heels for using and teaching with the delightful Jan Brett Books! This author-illustrator extraordinaire has my little learners swooning over her tales. My top two faves? “The Hat” and “The Mitten,” of course! Check out my PICTURE BOOK ACTIVITIES to jazz up these stories. They not only sharpen those academic skills but are also ready to roll with hardly any prep—talk about a win-win!
Penguins
Who can say no to the fabulous Tacky the Penguin and Lost Little Penguin? These delightful books are must-haves in my classroom library! To make things even more fun, I’ve whipped up some engaging literacy activities to sprinkle some extra joy on these winter wonders for your kindergarteners!
Bears, Bears, OH MY!!
Certainly, winter wouldn’t feel complete without incorporating bear-themed books into your kindergarten curriculum. My top recommendations are “Brown Bear, Brown Bear” and “Bear Snores On.” Little learners adore these stories, making them ideal for January’s winter read-aloud sessions.
These read-alouds and activities are sure to make January a month full of learning, laughter, and literary joy in your classroom!
