Help students connect personally with reading by writing a Valentine to a favorite book or character. This fun writing activity builds opinion writing, sentence structure, and comprehension as students explain why they love a story using details from the text.

Make sight word practice sweet and stress-free! Students read each candy heart and color the words they know, building fluency and confidence. A simple sentence extension helps reinforce word meaning and usage.

Turn independent reading into a celebration. Students track book titles, minutes read, and one thing they loved, earning a heart for every completed book.

Encourage deeper thinking and comprehension with guided questions that help kids reflect on the stories they read. Great for discussion, journaling, or class activities!

Make reading progress visual and fun! Kids can color in or check off books from the Books Alive for Kids Interactive Library as they read, helping build momentum and a sense of achievement.

Encourage students to reflect on how they engaged their senses during the lesson: what they saw, touched, heard, and how they moved. This activity supports recall, builds descriptive language, and brings the learning experience to life.

Design a unique bookmark inspired by a book from the Interactive Library. Illustrate a scene, character, or theme, and add a personal quote or reflection based on the story. When you're done, cut it out and start using your custom creation during your next read!
