Lilly’s Purple Plastic Purse reading comprehension lesson plans for K-2! This FREEBIE includes 5 lesson plans, complete with student response activities and a craft!

Lilly’s Purple Plastic Purse

Lilly loves school and especially loves her teacher, Mr. Slinger. That is until he takes her purple plastic purse for being too disruptive. Lilly’s feelings about Mr. Slinger quickly change. Use this story to teach a good lesson about having patience and being a good listener. You and your students will love this book!

Here is a video by StoryTime at Awnie’s House. I love her read alouds!

Reading Lesson Plans

Students develop their reading comprehension throughout our units while learning new vocabulary and strengthening their grammar through the weekly sentence study. Our research-based curriculum is aligned to the CCSS and TEKS. We are so excited to share our newly updated units for K-2 with you! Let’s take a look at some skills students will practice with the book, Lilly’s Purple Plastic Purse.

Character Analysis

We teach students to get to know the characters so they better understand what they are reading. Using an anchor chart, discuss and show how Lilly changes throughout the story.

Story Retell

Students retell the story using story cards. This can be done whole-group and independently!

These sweeties did a drawing and story retell inside their journals! So Precious!

Inferring

Students infer when reading to help them better understand what is happening in the story and why.

Opinion Writing

We often ask students about their favorite part of a book. This is great practice! This little one liked when Lilly apologized to Mr. Slinger. She was REALLY sorry!

Sentence Study and Vocabulary

We include both sentence study and vocabulary for Every. Single. Book! And better yet, we’ve updated the units to provide individual 5-day lesson plans just for vocab and sentence study/grammar!

Craft

Oh yes, there is a craft, too!
