I recently wrote a new book in order to enhance the learning of community helpers. Using riddles allows children to use their close reading skills to guess what each community helper is in the description. Children must identify what helper it is and use evidence from the riddle that helped them clue in to what the answer was. You can use this file on your interactive white board and highlight all the clues, key words, sight words etc. You can print this out smaller for use in guided reading groups, or print out and bind the pages together to make a class book.
This book includes eight different community helpers: doctor, teacher, crossing guard, dentist, librarian, chef, construction worker and postal worker. I'm in the process of making book two which will include another set of eight helpers. I will also add to this close reading activities. But for now it is on sale on Teachers Pay Teachers!
ENJOY!
Very cute! You may want to double check it though "I am the person WHO makes you feel healthy"
