Throwback Thursday #2

This week's Throwback Thursday is celebrating a classic and a favorite of many young children.  David Goes to School by David Shannon is an absolute must for children ages 3-5.  If you are a teacher read it to your class.  If you are a parent read it to your preschooler before their first day.  I guarantee you they will love it!


This book is so simple to read aloud but sparks great conversations with all kids.  The pictures are great to discuss as well as all of David's mishaps.  When you pull this book off the shelf to read aloud be sure to get your best teacher voice ready and model how to change your voice depending on the text.  Read this book aloud and I am sure it will be one that the kids grab off the shelf to read on their own.  

After reading, take the time to make your own David Goes to School books, but replace David with your own child's name and see what kind of mischief they can get into on the first day of school. 

Happy Reading!
