I have been reading aloud "Vampire's Don't Wear Polka Dots" the first book in the Bailey School Kids Series to the second graders. We have been learning about the 4 main characters, Melody, Eddie, Howie and Liza and of course Mrs. Jeepers.
2nd graders have been learning about subject and predicate in their reading class, so it was a perfect time to create a new book title for the series.

Students had to come up with a subject EX: Mermaids, and a predicate
EX: don't eat cupcakes. Then they created a book cover to go with their
idea. The titles were very creative, I am using them to decorate the primary side of the library.
To end the unit, we used the clickers to answer questions from the book. It
was amazing to see how many facts the students were able to recall.
Our library has more than 30 books from the series "The Adventures of
the Bailey School Kids" and quite often these past 2 month we had less than
5 books on the shelf. It is so much fun to get children excited about a book!
