Favorite Halloween Reads

Halloween· interactive read alouds· literacy· October· read alouds· Uncategorized

 

 

An
interactive read aloud is the purposeful read aloud of a story to focus on
specific content, central theme(s), and vocabulary.  They are an essential component to balanced
literacy that provide many opportunities for all students to engage with rich
texts.  Interactive read alouds are
typically done whole-group with pauses throughout each read to:

 

  • discuss
    the text and theme
     
  • discuss the illustrations and meaning(s)
  • make
    predictions

  • make
    connections

  • have
    conversations

 

Some of my most favorite interactive read alouds are during the
Halloween season.  They are books about being yourself, sharing your
passion, teamwork, accepting differences, and helping friends.

 

And my top ten Halloween interactive read alouds are:

 

Bonaparte Falls Apart by Margery Cuyler

The Little Kitten by Nicola Killen

Creepy Carrots by Aaron Reynolds

Big Pumpkin by Erica Silverman

The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything by Linda D. Williams

The Little Ghost Who Was a Quilt by Byron Eggenschwiler

The Hallo-Weiner by Dav Pilkey

Gustavo the Shy Ghost by Flavia Z. Drago

Room on the Broom by Julia Donaldson

Stumpkin by Lucy Ruth Cummins

 

The links above will send you to my interactive read aloud resources.  Please note that they do not come with the book, and the book is necessary to use the resource.  And to save B I G on the Halloween Interactive Read Aloud Bundle, C L I C K  H E R E !


Happy reading!  🙂
