I love Harry just as much now as I did when it was read to me as a child. When I discovered that Betty read this on Storylineonline a few years ago, I was even more excited! Perfection for sure!
You can get my Harry the Dirty Dog Book It for FREE in my store! If you aren't familiar with my Book-Its, there are three activities.
Book It: Retell It, Write It! Make It!
1. Retelling the Story:
2. Make-a-Word
The kids start off very slow with the words they can make. Model, model, model! There is so much you can do with Make-a-Words and I feel like they are an untapped resource for so many teachers. I use their word study lessons as a guide and then sneak in all sorts of other min-lessons.
Since there is an "S" in this one, I introduced plurals and kids were excited to almost double their words. By the end of the year, many kids can get 50-100 words (TRUTH!) on a good Make-a-Word phrase.
3. Writing Prompts (Pick-a-Prompt)
Book Its are also awesome to leave for a substitute! Yep! Why? Because it's at least an HOUR of meaningful work. Watch/read book, Retelling, Make-A-Word, and then the prompt and sharing. More than 60 minutes for me and I usually don't do everything in one day. (Retelling is an example: They practice retelling a few days independently and then with partner.)
Last year, for the first time in forever, a NEW Harry the Dirty Dog book was released:

ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful pairing—Betty White and Harry the Dirty Dog are basically the same soul in different fonts, aren’t they? nexus shop Both are endlessly lovable, stubbornly charming, and refuse to stay clean or conventional. Betty’s wit had that scrappy, street-smart sparkle, just like Harry’s mud-covered escapades that always ended in a triumphant bath—by choice, not by force. There’s a lesson in both: you can be a little messy, a little mischievous, and still be adored for exactly who you are. Thanks for giving us a freebie that feels like a warm hug from childhood and a wink from a golden-age legend. I can already picture a storytime where Harry rolls in the dirt while Betty cracks a one-liner about needing a bigger towel.
