Description

This PRINT AND DIGITAL resource is intended to be a 5-day book study of So You Want To Be President by Judith St. George. However, it can easily be modified and shortened to meet your classroom needs. Choose from 12 pages of reading comprehension questions - use them all or pick and choose! A 3-page book test is also included. Opinion writing is the main skill highlighted throughout this mini-unit. This reading comprehension packet and book test can be used with both editions of the book.

See the preview for a closer look at what's included.

⭐The digital version includes Google Slides that you can easily assign to students through Google Classroom or by using the share link.

Why does this resource not require a book?

This book is available as a read-aloud with video on the following websites. Due to copyright law, I cannot provide you with the links. Search: So You Want to Be President on any of the websites below to share the video read-aloud with your students. Many schools have subscriptions to Book Flix and/or Epic Books. If your school does not have a subscription, I suggest doing a quick search on YouTube where you’ll find several read-aloud options.

  • Book Flix (requires a subscription)
  • Epic Books (requires a subscription)
  • YouTube

What’s included:

  • Pre-reading survey
  • 18 vocabulary words broken down into 6 words for 4 days
  • Opinion sentence starters/phrases
  • 38 open-ended questions to answer while reading or viewing the book
  • Post-Reading Survey
  • Writing Prompt
  • 30 question book test with multiple choice and open-ended questions

Perfect to use just before Presidents’ Day, with any President Unit, or with the Scott Foresman Reading Basel for 4th Grade.
