For the 1st Week of School, my pick is...
Otto Goes to School
by Todd Parr
I chose this classic children's book by the incredible author, Todd Parr, because it's a great way to introduce children to all of the wonderful things that they will learn this year. In the story, Otto is so excited to go to school on his first day that he puts his clothes on backwards and wears two different colored socks! At first he is nervous, but once he sees his friends he is excited and begins to learn all sorts of useful things. I like to read the story with my students and then relate it to their own lives by talking with them about all of the great things that they think they will learn in school this year.
