Integrating Academics with Engaging Read-Alouds in Kindergarten
Reading aloud to little learners is a common practice in kindergarten classrooms. As teachers, we look for books and activities that fit within the current monthly theme and are loved by our students. “Room on the Broom” is a popular book that little learners not only enjoy but engage with.
However, it’s essential to incorporate academic components into our read-alouds. That’s why I’ve come up with activities that align with this book and provide engaging and purposeful practice of academic skills during this time of the year. (Picture Books In the Kindergarten Classroom)
