Old Tracks, New Tricks ELA Mini Unit FREEBIE

This mini unit was created to supplement instruction for the book Old Tracks, New Tricks by Jessica Petersen. This is an adorable story. The text is written with a specific rhythm and beat, and is perfect for introducing rhyming in a story format. In this mini unit, I tried to focus on big ideas and making the text accessible for younger learners.

This mini unit includes:
• 3 Days of simple, bulleted lesson plans
• Vocabulary cards and instructions
• Reading comprehension instruction and anchor chart for story elements
• Figurative language lesson (onomatopoeia)
