Large Group Literacy - Georgia Pre-K

I am still new to Georgia Pre-K, this is my second year, so I am still learning.  I went to a CLASS training but was picking up ideas for LGL from others.  Here are some ideas

Book:  Three Billy Goats Gruff
Day 1: Picture Walk Through Book - discussing what  is happening by using the pictures
Day 2: Reading the story in the book
Day 3: Shared reading with the children - reading the easy repetitive parts
Day 4: Acting out the story - we used a drum and sentence strip hats)
Day 5: Acting out the story - the rest of the kids
You could also have them make an alternative ending, or retell the story, or read another version discuss what is different what is the same.

KWL
Day 1: What do they know about _____________?
Day 2: What do they want to know about _____________? (if you have time to fit it into day 1 when they are ready go for it)
Day 3: What did they learn?

Poems
Day 1:Write a poem (or copy one from somewhere - I play on doing one from where the sidewalk ends)
Day 2: Share reading of the poem

Class Books:  I want to be _____ when I grow up.
Day 1: Have students draw, write what they want to be when they grow up.
Day 2: after putting the book together read it together.  When it's Lily's turn she stands up and you say When I grow up I want to be a _____ and Lily answers.  If they can say the entire sentence that works too.

Big books are you friends too.

Telling and making up stories.  I love telling stories and I have yet to do this because I had no idea.

Story Mapping: Who are the characters? What is the setting?  What is the problem(s)? What is a solution?

Writing in journals. Then having the child dictate what they are drawing/writing.

Reading a book such as Felix Gets Sick than acting out what happens when you go to the Dr. office.

Fill in the blank stories. Kind of like a mad lib.



Hope this helps!!!
