Hello, my reading friends! I’m so glad you’re here to read with me. Are you ready for a fun story? Have you ever wondered what might happen if you took a little mouse to school with you? Let’s find out together as we read “If You Take a Mouse to School,” written by Laura Numeroff and illustrated by Felicia Bond.
If you take a mouse to school, he’ll ask you for your lunchbox. What do you think he wants to do with it? Well, when you give him your lunchbox, he’ll want a sandwich and a snack for later—cookies! Yum!
After having his snack, Mouse might want to do some fun school activities. He could try drawing with crayons, building with blocks, or even playing on the playground. Mouse loves to explore and learn new things, just like you!
At school, Mouse might learn about numbers and letters. He could listen to stories, sing songs, and maybe even make new friends. School is a place where we can have lots of fun while learning new things every day.
Mouse’s day at school is full of surprises. He might want to do some science experiments or paint a picture. Whatever he does, Mouse is sure to have a great time learning and playing.
If you have a copy of “If You Take a Mouse to School,” grab it and read along with me. Let’s see what other exciting things Mouse does at school. Remember, reading is a wonderful adventure, and I’m so happy to share it with you!
Thanks for reading with me today. I hope you enjoyed the story. See you next time for more fun and learning!
Mouse’s Lunchbox Adventure: Pretend you are the mouse and create your own lunchbox adventure! Gather some toy food items or draw pictures of your favorite snacks. What would you pack in your lunchbox if you were going to school with Mouse? Share your lunchbox with a friend and talk about why you chose each item.
Build and Create with Mouse: Just like Mouse, let’s explore building and creating. Use blocks, LEGO, or any building toys you have at home to construct a school for Mouse. What rooms will you include? A classroom, a playground, or maybe a library? After building, draw a picture of your creation and share it with your family.
Mouse’s Learning Adventure: Go on a letter and number hunt around your house or classroom. Can you find objects that start with the same letter as your name? How many numbers can you find on clocks, books, or calendars? Write down or draw what you discover and share your findings with your classmates.
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:
