HERE COMES THE BIG MEAN DUST BUNNY
Jan Thomas writes the funniest books, and Here Comes the Big Mean Dust Bunny is no exception! I love how the book also ties in lots of good rhyming skills, too!
In this book, we are introduced to Ed, Ned, Ted, and Bob. They like to rhyme...all the time! Can you guess which character has trouble with rhyming words?
We are also introduced to the big, mean dust bunny. Let's just say that he sure lives up to his name!
The big, mean dust bunny is quite the bully. He speaks rudely, sits on the other characters, and chases them around.
Throughout the book, the characters ask each other for rhyming words. These activities from the unit have students practicing their own rhyming skills:
The big mean dust bunny runs into some trouble. Even though they were not treated nicely by the big mean dust bunny, Ed, Ted, Ned, and Bob come to the rescue and lend a helping hand!
Even though he had been mean, Ed, Ned, Ted, and Bob helped the big mean dust bunny in his troubles. They became friends!
This book is great for a discussion about bullying and how to treat others (even though they may not treat you nicely). It also shows that sometimes you can even become friends.
This craftivity makes a fun bulletin board display to showcase student learning!
This book activities unit is packed with Common Core aligned literacy companion activities to go with the book Here Comes the Big Mean Dust Bunny by Jan Thomas. It's perfect for Kindergarten and First Grade!
