I am searching for a new read aloud for this school year as I am tired of my same old ones (Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing, Poppy, Little House in the Big Woods). What is your absolute favorite read aloud during the school year and your favorite read aloud for the first day(s) of school? Thanks!

Jeannene Smith The best read aloud I have come across is Bruce Coville's Into the Land of the Unicorns. I have read it to 3rd-6th graders. They beg me to read it!! Even though it is about a girl and a unicorn, 6th grade boys even love it.

auntiebarb For the first day I like either Hooray for Diffendoofer Day by Dr Seuss or First Day Jitters. Read alouds - any of the Time Warp Trio books - I read one, and they can look for the rest, I also love Fantastic Mr Fox or James and the Giant Peach. Also any of Kate DiCamillo books, especially The Tale of Despereaux

paula I love Clementine; Gooney Bird Greene; The Not Just Anybody Family, Jennifer Murdley's Toad; Poppy; Love, Ruby Lavender.

I am going to give Mr. Popper's Penguins another try this year. I personally don't care for the book, but like to read books that have movies out. When I read it a few years ago, I didn't like that he released the pengui...See More

Courtney Some of my favorites are Molly Moon and the Incredible Book of Hypnotism, The Last of the Really Great Whangdoodles, and The Mysterious Case of I.M. Fine (I think that is what it is called- it definitely has I.M. Fine in the title)
