Magic Tree House Passport: Become a Tree House Traveler

May 16, 2018

Kids love the Magic Tree House series! Now your students can track their reading adventures through time and space with this Magic Tree House Passport booklet.

This book series follows Jack and Annie (brother and sister), who discover a magical tree house filled with books. Their adventures all started when Jack and Annie found a book about dinosaurs inside the tree house and were taken back to prehistoric times. After that, Jack and Annie traveled to many different places around the world – and even into outer space! If your students have enjoyed taking these adventures with Jack and Annie, they will love becoming a Tree House Traveler!

Kids love the Magic Tree House series! Now your students can track their reading adventures through time and space with this Magic Tree House Passport booklet. Students add a stamp to the passport for each book they read in the original series.

PREPARING THE MAGIC TREE HOUSE PASSPORT BOOKLETS

To become a Tree House Traveler, your students will begin with a Magic Tree House Passport. The booklets come in two sizes. The original size is created by printing four pages back-to-back. The smaller size is created by printing two pages back-to-back. Each booklet has four different cover options. Print these pages in color or black and white.

To get the booklets ready, you will need to print the pages back-to-back. The black and white cover option works well with colored paper. After printing back-to-back, you will cut, stack, fold, and staple the booklets. 

Choose the templates you want for your Magic Tree House passport. Then print your pages back-to-back.

Students will also need passport stamps to go with each book in the original Magic Tree House series. I have included several options to choose from. You can print all of the passport stamps on two pages (one stamp for each of the 36 books in the original Magic Tree House series). This option works well for students reading the series independently or for small groups.

Print a full set of stamps to go with the Magic Tree House series. This option works well when using the books with your small group or if students are reading the series independently.

You can also print one full-page of stamps to go with each book in the series. This option works well if you are reading the series aloud to your whole class.

WAYS TO USE THE MAGIC TREE HOUSE PASSPORT

There are a few ways you can use these Tree House Traveler booklets with your students.

WHOLE CLASS

For younger students, teachers may choose to read the books aloud to students. After finishing one of the books, print out a full sheet of the matching passport stamps. Then cut out and give one stamp to each student. Students can glue the stamp over the matching book number in the passport booklet. For example, Dinosaurs Before Dark is book #1 in the series, so the dinosaur stamp goes on top of the #1 in the passport booklet.

SMALL GROUP OR INDEPENDENT READING

For second or third grade students, the Magic Tree House series can be read independently or with your book clubs or small groups. You can print out a set of passport stamps for each student. As a student finishes a book in the series, they can cut out the matching stamp and glue it on top of the corresponding number in the passport booklet.

    The passport used to be offered for free on the author’s website years ago when my son was much younger. You answered three questions about the book and then received a “stamp” to print out and put in your book. Is this the same passport? Thanks!

      Hi Margaret,
      No, this passport is something I put together to help my own students who were reading the series. It includes pages to create a booklet along with individual stamps that have images to match the theme or topic of each book. There are no questions included with this resource. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

At school, Monique wore a uniform every single day. But looking just like everyone else was not for her. One day, she found a huge, red hat in a trunk in the attic and decided she’d wear it to school. Everyone noticed her and had something to say, which made Monique smile…until a teacher told her she had to take off the hat. 

The next day, everyone at school was wearing a hat - everyone except Monique, who was already planning something new to wear the following day. With each new idea and accessory that makes Monique unique comes a series of kids who copy and mimic her style. Can she find a way to be different?

This book is often hard to find, but has a great message about individuality and celebrating that it’s okay to be different! Have you read this one yet?

I may introduce a lot of books to you here on the I may introduce a lot of books to you here on the gram, but sometimes YOU are the ones who introduce books to me. This is one of those stories.

Sarah lives alone in her little house now that her children are all grown up. Every time she looks out her window, she sees the neighborhood children waiting for the bus. One winter morning she notices a boy who doesn’t have mittens. This worries her, so she gathers some supplies and sets out to knit him a new pair. Once finished, she hangs them on the tree next to the bus stop. 

When the boy finds the mittens the next day, he quickly tries them on and beams at their perfect fit. Sarah’s heart is filled with joy and it isn’t long before she makes even more mittens to hang on the tree. The kids look forward to finding these new treasures each morning at the bus stop. Sarah is sure that no one knows it is her adding to the mitten tree until one day she returns home and finds a surprise waiting for her - a basket filled with beautiful balls of yarn.

This heartwarming story has a great message about kindness, community, and the joy that comes from helping others. It would make a great addition to your winter book collection!

I might share a lot of picture books, but I do lov I might share a lot of picture books, but I do love chapter books, too. One of my favorites for January is Mr. Popper’s Penguins. While this story has been around for decades, it still manages to entertain readers of all ages. ⁣
⁣
If you aren’t familiar, Mr. Popper is a housepainter who daydreams about polar expeditions. One day he receives a real penguin and his world turns upside down. Soon after the penguin grows lonely and the Poppers add a second penguin to their home. It isn’t long before they have 10 penguin chicks, making that 12 penguins in all! With so many mouths to feed, Mr. Popper realizes he will have to do something to bring in more money. That’s when Popper’s Performing Penguins gets started. The show goes on tour and plenty of hilarious antics begin!⁣
⁣
I used this book with some of my reading groups in both 2nd and 3rd grade with the help of a few resources to guide students through the text (comprehension questions for each chapter, vocabulary activities, graphic organizers, and more). There’s also a penguin craft, which was a big hit! This resource is available in my TPT store. Drop a 🐧 in the comments or send me a DM if you’d like the link. ⁣

Have you ever felt like you don’t quite fit in? Have you ever felt like you don’t quite fit in? Or maybe you’ve let the opinions of others creep into your mind  and start to doubt yourself? If so, I think you should read Lone Wolf.⁣
⁣
In this story, Maple is a member of the Parker family. She loves playing tug-of-war with Jax, reading with Avery, getting treats, and going for looooooooong walks. But wherever she goes, people comment that she looks more like a wolf than a dog. The Parkers explain the difference between a husky and a wolf, but Maple starts to have her doubts. ⁣
⁣
One day, Maple sees the fence open and takes her chance to explore the wild as a lone wolf. Will Maple love this new lifestyle, or will she realize that home with the Parkers is where she truly belongs? ⁣
⁣
This charming story explores family, self-doubt, and finding the place where you belong. It would be a great story to share in the classroom or at home.⁣

Whether you’re headed back to the classroom this Whether you’re headed back to the classroom this week or next week, please don’t forget to make time to review your classroom rules and procedures. You can make this process a bit more enjoyable by sharing books. Sometimes these stories have a way of getting through when your words can’t. I put together a list of my favorites on my website. Tap the link in my bio or drop a comment below if you’d like me to send you the link. 

When do students head back to school in your area?
It’s 2023! 🥳⁣ ⁣ Are you making goals or r It’s 2023! 🥳⁣
⁣
Are you making goals or resolutions? Maybe you’ve chosen to focus on one little word instead. No matter how you’re setting yourself up for success in the new year, having a plan is only the first step. One way to get your students excited for making resolutions is to help them understand what a resolution is. I love using the book, Squirrel’s New Year’s Resolution. ⁣
⁣
In this story, Squirrel hears about making New Year’s resolutions on the radio, but she doesn’t know what they are. She visits her friends to find out what they resolve to do in the new year. Bear wants to help others learn to read. Porcupine decides to be less grumpy. What will Squirrel choose for her resolution? ⁣
⁣
Looking for a way to help kids keep their resolutions in mind long after the first week back in school? Try adding a craft. Not only are they fun for kids to make, but when they are on display, kids will have a visual reminder of their hopes and goals for the year. Swipe to take a peek at one to pair with this book. This craft can be found in my TPT store (send me a DM or comment below if you’d like me to send you the link).⁣

What are your favorite books to start off the new year?
