What Do You Do With an Idea?

What Do You Do With an Idea? by Kobi Yamada is a new, Independent Publisher's Book Award winning picture book. This literature unit is appropriate for 1st-4th grade. Note: Picture books are generally most appropriate for primary grades, but the concepts presented in 'What Do You Do With an Idea?' are appropriate for any age, so this unit is designed to reach students a bit older than the average picture book audience.

What Do You Do With an Idea focuses more on the concepts presented in the story and less on the content (although there are comprehension questions included in list form as well as task card form). In addition to the task cards and printables, you will also find a craftivity and growth mindset reflection page. Please check out the preview for What Do You Do With an Idea prior to purchasing.
