Slides aligning with the Junior Great Books curriculum to facilitate reading and discussing all three stories in the Friendship book. Add on work sheets available for additional purchase.

These slides support both the development of empathy in students and the practice of identifying emotions, especially in reference to how we physically feel emotions. The students are guided through three relevant scenarios that challenges them to consider multiple perspectives and emotions different people might feel in the same situation.

Use these slides to combine Space Science Learning and Opinion Writing in a fun and interesting way. Students are astronauts tasked with decided wether they would rather go to the stars, the Moon, or the Sun. Students must research then write opinion paragraphs using the OREO (Opinion, Reason, Example, Opinion Restated) model.
