If you Give a Mouse a Cookie


It is the last week of Summer Story Workshops!  I can't believe how fast it went!
Thank you to all of those who entered the giveaways and shared your ideas through the Linky Parties (it's not too late to link up now).

This week is all about that cute little mouse in the book:

If you Give a Mouse a Cookie

This is a well loved cause and effect story by Laura Numeroff.  Who can resist a story about a cute little mouse in overalls and COOKIES!!!

Here are some skill ideas by grade-level when using this book:

Pre-K/Kindergarten
*Counting (within the book the number of cookies and crayons)
*Things that go together (example: tooth and toothbrush)
*Sequencing a story
*5 senses by cookie tasting
*Vocabulary (learning new words)

First Grade/Second Grade
 *Cause and effect
*Descriptive words (describing a cookie using 5 senses)
*Graphing (favorite type of cookie)
*Sight words


I know the list could go on and on! If you have a SKILL for one or more of these grade-levels (not activity- save that for the Linky Party!) please leave a comment and I will add it to the list!
