Children love stories! They love listening to stories, discussing the stories and sharing experiences they have had similar to the characters in the stories. Stories keep students engaged. So with all this being said beginning the first day of school with a story is perfect!! Each of the stories below are filled with activities, discussion ideas, vocabulary, word work, writing activities, crafts and comprehension making them ideal for guided reading or the literacy portion of your day. Click on the story and find out more about it or browse the Children’s Literature section of my website.






This bundle comes with four other delightful stories for the first day as well as lesson plans. First Day Hooray, Froggy Goes to School, A Letter From My Teacher on the First Day of School and the Old Lady Who Swallowed some Books.
