Pirate Week for the Young Ones

I am excited about our literature unit coming up. We’ll be reading How I Became a Pirate by Melinda Long. The illustrations are as adorable as the story because David Shannon is the illustrator.  We’ll be working on all kinds of Common Core this week. I tried to hit a little bit of everything, from questioning, to vocabulary to point of view and even a bit of opinion writing.

In addition to this unit for Shared Reading time, we’ll also be working
on map skills.  I love our pirate theme while teaching basic map
skills.  Also included in this unit is a poem for the week, as well as, centers.
