Back to School Read Alouds

Good morning world! Today I'm linking up again with The Teacher's Chair for another "Show us your...." linky party. First let me say, though, that I really enjoy reading her blog. If you haven't already, take a minute to check it out. She's got some really great ideas.

Here is today's theme.
A lot of upper elementary teachers don't read books aloud to their kids anymore {sad face!} Last year I taught 4th grade and got them hooked on read-alouds! They initially thought they were "too big/cool/old" to listen to picture books, but they grew to love them. Read-alouds, when used properly, serve an important purpose for any grade. There are a lot of rules and procedures that students learn during the first week of school, and picture books are a great way to reinforce these principles. Here are my go-to stories.
Can't wait to read these in a few weeks!!!!!
