The Lemonade War Craft and Vocabulary Booklet

February 14, 2018

The Lemonade War by Jacqueline Davies is a great story to read aloud to your class or use with your small group. This story follows both Evan and Jessie (who are brother and sister) as they dive into the world of running a lemonade stand. Along the way you will read about their grudges, misunderstandings, and competitive nature while also learning some kid-friendly business advice. Today I want to share two activities you can use with your students while reading The Lemonade War: a lemonade craft and a vocabulary booklet.

lemonade war craft booklet

This lemonade craft booklet can be used with The Lemonade War by Jacqueline Davies. There are two different cover options.

This lemonade craft booklet can be used during or after reading the story. I have included two covers – one has a title and clipart and the other is left blank so students can color it in to make it look like a glass of lemonade. I have also included templates to add a straw and a lemon wedge.

 

This lemonade craft booklet can be used with The Lemonade War by Jacqueline Davies. There are three different writing templates included.

On the inside of the lemonade booklet, students can respond to the text in a variety of ways. There are three different templates to choose from (lined, blank, and a picture/writing combo). These pages would be great for chapter summaries, character studies, book reviews, and more! These lemonade craft booklets can be put on a bulletin board display when finished.

 

lemonade war vocabulary booklet

This lemonade words booklet can be used to help students with vocabulary while reading The Lemonade War by Jacqueline Davies.

Since each chapter title in the story focuses on a business term, these words are perfect to use for vocabulary work! You can also use any other words you find in the story. As students find unfamiliar vocabulary words, you can stop and work on these words together using this vocabulary graphic organizer. When all the pages are complete, you can put them together into a Lemonade Words booklet. I have included a cover for this vocabulary booklet, too!

I have added this lemonade craft and vocabulary booklet to my Free Resource Library. If you aren’t an email subscriber yet, you can sign up here.

You can find The Lemonade War on Amazon.

      I just looked into this and it shows that the email was delivered, but not opened. Is there a chance it is in your junk/spam folder? Sometimes school district emails block these messages from being delivered to your inbox. If that doesn’t work, I can try to send the message again.

    Love this craft idea! Signed up as my daughter is reading this as a distance learning project, but the craft didn’t come through. Have checked all spam and isn’t anywhere in my inboxes. Any ideas? Such a cute activity!

        The link takes me to the resource library but the actual lemonade craft isn’t there. I see 20 other free resources but not this particular resource that I’m looking for. Does that make sense? I’m not sure if there is another place to look or if I’m doing something wrong.

          Hi Laura,
          So you’re only seeing 20 resources in the Free Resource Library? That’s so strange! Are you accessing the library via computer or phone?
          I’ll move the Lemonade War resource closer to the top for now while I look into why all of the resources aren’t showing.
          Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Sometimes a book comes along and I don’t think t Sometimes a book comes along and I don’t think twice before I press Add to Cart. This is one of those books and I think you’ll love it, too!💙

In this story, a family spends the day at the beach. One boy builds a sandcastle while his brothers play soccer nearby. When their ball crushes the sandcastle, it stirs up a variety of emotions. Dad sits down to help the boy acknowledge, name, and process his feelings. 

“Your feelings are yours - each one is okay.
What you’re feeling today may soon go away.
Listen to your emotions - learn how to name them.
Then you’ll know better how to explain them.”

The message that it’s perfectly normal to have a wide range of feelings is one that boys need to hear more often. Pete Oswald has paired his rhyming text beautifully with detailed illustrations that only enhance this must-read book!💙 Swipe to take a peek inside.

“Life is better with friends. They make the good “Life is better with friends. They make the good times better and the tough times easier to bear.” Unknown

What do you love to do when you’re with your friends? If you are anything like me, it’s not about WHAT you do, but WHO you spend your time with. That’s just one reason I was drawn to Nothing’s Wrong.

In this story, Anders and Jeff are headed out for a picnic. After baking the most delicious apple pie, Anders discovers it was ruined by the rain. Worried it will spoil their outing, Anders pretends that nothing’s wrong, but Jeff gets the sense that his friend isn’t being honest. 
 
Should he give his friend space? 
Should he check in with his friend?
Should he help him out?
Or should he just be there by his side?

How can Jeff be a good friend if he doesn’t know what his friend might need?

This book combines laugh-out-loud humor with a heartwarming message about true friendship. It reminds readers that even when nothing seems to go right, a good friend will be there for you at the end of the day.

✏️I don’t know what to write! Have you hear ✏️I don’t know what to write!

Have you heard that one before? It happens. Kids get writer’s block. When they do, they will need some inspiration to get back on track. I like to use books and I have a new one I think you’ll love!

Birdie usually has no problem creating masterpieces. However, as the end of the school year gets closer, she’s struggling to get creative.

Have no fear, the Storytellers are here!

Soon, Birdie’s school supplies hatch a plan to spark wonder, build curiosity, and inspire new ideas. Will this plan get Birdie’s creative juices flowing, or will she be defeated yet again by her nemesis, the blank page?

This book would be a great addition to your writing mentor texts. It celebrates that kids are surrounded by inspiration and encourages them to begin with wonder.
