https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6 For Ralph's book box, I tried to choose many different kinds of books so that he can see which ones he likes the best. I also chose some award winning books, and even one that has no words so he can come up with his own story. Lastly, I tried to find some that matched his interests out of school. en-us 2023-02-13 17:28:02 UTC 2026-02-04 14:11:06 UTC hello@padlet.com planka2 https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480012782 2023-02-13 17:47:28 UTC https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480012782 planka2 https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480018382 I chose this book because I thought it would be a good book that Ralph could understand and read by himself. The words are not very hard to understand, and the book is silly so that it will keep his interest. I also liked it because there are other David books by Shannon that he could read too if he likes that one. I also included this one because it won a Caldecott medal too. ]]> 2023-02-13 17:51:07 UTC https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480018382 planka2 https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480199906 2023-02-13 19:58:42 UTC https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480199906 planka2 https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480202433 I chose this book because Ralph said that he really likes playing video games at home, so this book would really interest him, and probably have some words that he would understand. Bad Kitty is also part of a series so if he liked this one he could find more Bad Kitty books to read. They are very funny books that are very popular and kids love to read. It is a little more tricky to read for a kindergartener, but with help he should be able to read it on his own eventually. ]]> 2023-02-13 20:00:43 UTC https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480202433 planka2 https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480209286 2023-02-13 20:06:24 UTC https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480209286 planka2 https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480215334 I chose this book because I wanted to show him a book that didn't have any words, so he could use his imagination to come up with his own story based off of the pictures. The pictures are also very good illustrations because this book has also won a Caldecott Medal, so it is a good quality book. ]]> 2023-02-13 20:11:50 UTC https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480215334 planka2 https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480220275 2023-02-13 20:15:52 UTC https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480220275 planka2 https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480225735 I chose this book because it represents Ralph's ethnicity. His parents were from Mexico so he might be interested in learning about his ancestors and where they come from. Spanish is also Ralph's first language and this book has some Spanish to English translations and objects that students try to find on the pages. It is also a rhyming book so this book can help him figure out what words come next in the book. ]]> 2023-02-13 20:20:32 UTC https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480225735 planka2 https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480234522 2023-02-13 20:27:52 UTC https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480234522 planka2 https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480236869 I chose this book because I wanted to include a leveled reader that is very popular among young readers. This book also won the Theodor Seuss Geisel Award Honor, so it won the most distinguished American book for beginning readers. I remember reading fly guy books and really liking them when I was younger, so hopefully he will like these books too. ]]> 2023-02-13 20:29:52 UTC https://padlet.com/planka2/4zaumncz65kkwhs6/wish/2480236869
