A Bad Case of Tattle Tongue | Book Study & Tattle Rules Poster

A BAD CASE OF TATTLE TONGUE

A good book for primary grades, especially for the beginning of the school year, is A Bad Case of Tattle Tongue by Julia Cook. It's great for teaching your students the difference between tattling and reporting :)

In the book, Josh is told that if he tattles a lot, he will grow a 'tattle tongue'.

I have created a literacy companion pack to go with the book. It's packed with activities that are engaging and standards based.

 I've included this handy poster of the 'Tattle Rules'.

I love this book for those years where you need to discuss tattling vs reporting to your class!
