Here are two simple black and white templates for class books based on the poem "November"– a NOvember Book and a YESember Book.

After reading the traditional poem students can contribute a page that illustrates something that is no longer around in November. Students can then put a positive spin on the poem and make another class book, called YESember, which is full of things that CAN be done once November arrives.

A pocket chart version of the poem is also included for shared reading.

No green grass
No blue sky
No bare feet going by
No frogs
No bees
No more leaves on the trees
