Please also note that the original bundle was supposed to have sixty book activities. Jen decided to make the difficult decision to “retire from TPT” to spend more time with her family and so there will only be thirty book activities in this bundle. However, I am sure that you will find that the thirty book activities in “Read Aloud Favorites – Activities & Writing Prompts for the Year – All Access Pass” are well worth your hard-earned money. The 30th book, Somebody Loves You, Mr. Hatch, does not follow the same format as the other books, but is a great addition to this amazing set of lessons created by Jen.

Everyone should be buying this bundle! There is already a fantastic set added, but there will be so much value in this bundle when all the sets are added. I love that the read aloud books have SEL themes throughout, which will be especially important this school year! Another really important thing to mention is that there is digital activities included! Perfect for any situation next school year.

This resource is going to be incredibly useful when we return to school this fall. No matter what model my district choose, I’ll be able to use this in class (projected on my white board), or remotely (via shared screen, or assigned via Google Classroom). I also love how this resource focuses on social emotional skills/development – something my students will absolutely need this coming year. Thank you!!
