Air & Weather Freebies, Day 3 – Songs & Poems

Welcome to Day 3 of the Air & Weather freebies! I’m so glad you are back for more.  In case you are just joining in on the fun, you can read about Cloud Activities here and find Games & Art Ideas here. Today’s focus:

 

 

I love integrating these songs and poems into our unit.  They come in handy when something doesn’t go as planned.  Kids ask to read  their books with partners during Daily 5, in the hallway while waiting for specialists, and even if we pack up a minute or two early (rare occasion, I tell you).  They are also great to leave for a sub because they are easy to work with.  Oh, and you can be a terrible singer like me and your students will still think you’re a rock star!

I hope you have gathered some great resources. Click the image below to find even more Air & Weather freebies!
Happy Teaching!

Songs and poems are a great way to add excitement to your Air & Weather unit. These free songs and poems can be used with your whole class, in small groups, or to help students build fluency. They can be easily placed into a booklet, too.

Are you a fan of fractured fairy tales? I am! ⁣
⁣
Josh Funk has taken this concept to a whole new level with his It’s Not a Fairy Tale series. In these stories, the fairy tale characters refuse to listen to the storyteller and will not go along with the original story. As you might expect, hilarity ensues!⁣
⁣
So far, this series includes the following tales:⁣
• It’s Not Little Red Riding Hood⁣
• It’s Not Hansel and Gretel⁣
• It’s Not Jack and the Beanstalk ⁣
⁣
My kids love hearing the back-and-forth banter between the narrator and the fairy tale characters. These books always get some big belly laughs, which is a win in my book! Have you read any of these books yet? If so, which fairy tale would you love to see @joshfunkbooks write about next?⁣

❤️❤️❤️Reading is not only a meaning-making transaction between the author and the reader, it’s a magic-making experience and sharing this magic with students is one of the greatest gifts teachers can give their students, virtually or in person.

Balloons Over Broadway is not your average Thanksgiving book. This one tells the story of Tony Sarg, a master puppeteer who helped create the first helium-filled balloons that are now a staple of the annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade.⁣
⁣
Many classrooms now use this book as inspiration for their own school-wide balloon parades. Whether your kids watch these parades as spectators on the sidelines or through videos online, let them describe their favorite balloons with a fun kid craft. Swipe to take a peek. You can find this craft along with more activities for Balloons Over Broadway in my TpT store. This resource has printable and digital options. ⁣

The turkey fell into the pond?⁣
The pies were sold out?⁣
The class bunny ate the salad?⁣
Mashed potatoes on the wall?⁣
⁣
Sounds like a 2020 Thanksgiving, right? But this is what happens in Thanksgiving at the Tappletons’. Fortunately, this family comes to realize that there is more to Thanksgiving than a turkey and the trimmings.⁣
⁣
After reading this story, kids can make their own Thanksgiving placemat craft that opens to reveal a piece of writing. Since this will be a Thanksgiving like no other, students can share a memory, things they are thankful for, their favorite Thanksgiving foods, a holiday gone wrong, or something else. You can find this activity in my TpT store. Tap the photos for more info.
