DAVID GOES TO SCHOOL

This book is a great springboard to launch into a discussion about self regulation, classroom behavior, and character education.

This entertaining read aloud, paired with these book companion activities, helps students practice important literacy and reading comprehension activities in a fun and engaging way!
