You're Finally Here! Read Aloud Lesson

                                                                     Available on Amazon


 I’ve created a simple and interactive literacy plan for You’re Finally Here!  It’s intended for Pre-Kindergaten/Kindergarten. I hope this helps with some of your Back-To-School lesson planning.

Purpose: Children work on focusing attention during a read aloud and will be introduced to new vocabulary.

Classroom Culture: crisscross applesauce, peanut butter hands, eyes on the speaker

Targeted Vocabulary: rude, annoyed, impatient

Materials: You’re Finally Here!, stuffed bunny, anchor chart with “Where Were You?” written on it, sticky notes

Focus Activity: Let’s Meet Bunny

Hide Bunny out of sight.

Would you like to meet my friend? Wait a few seconds before presenting him to the class.

(Look at the clock, etc.) He's late! Where is he? Gosh, that's rude. (Wait a few more seconds.) I'm getting annoyed.

Don't you think it's rude for him to make us wait? It's certainly not very polite.

Pretend to see Bunny and show him to the class. Here he is! This is Bunny. Where were you, Bunny? What took you so long to get here?

Pretend he’s whispering in your ear and tell children what he’s saying.

First, he had to turn three years old and then he had to wait for summer to end, so that school could start.

He's the main character in the story we're going to read today. Bunny is an impatient little guy.

Does anyone know what impatient means? It’s when you don’t want to wait for something or someone. It’s the opposite of patient.

Pre-Reading: Introduce the title, author, illustrator, and front cover

After Reading: I know where Bunny was, but I’ve been waiting a long time for all of you to get here too. Where were you?

Record children’s responses on the sticky notes and have them place them on the anchor chart.
