The arrival of the fall season is a great time to practice reading skills! Students can read about fall using emergent readers and reading comprehension passages. With reading comprehension passages, students can practice comprehension skills such as finding text evidence, vocabulary, sequencing, and more!

Students can also practice writing skills by writing about fall events or fall adjectives. Students can also write a fall acrostic poem or a book about fall.
