As a Kindergarten teacher, my favorite (current) character has to be Pete the Cat! When I share him with my kids, he lets them know that even though things don't go exactly as planned, it will be okay! email: mitchca@tulsaschools.org
Too late, but that's okay. My favorite character is Frances from the series by Hoban. I have loved her since I was a little girl and I pass that on to my students every year.
Katy and Jen- I just emailed you the file...but Katy the email address you used bounced the email back to me! Just wanted to let you know- please leave another email address! :) melissa
Hi Jeanette, Thanks for the question! So a mentor text is a text that I read to my students during a read aloud (most likely a fiction story) and then return back to that text over and over again throughout the next couple of weeks, to teach a mini lesson. I use mentor texts mainly for reading and writing. If you want to learn a little bit more about how we read one text and then use it to teach different reading mini-lessons from it, you may find this blog post helpful: http://lessonplansos.blogspot.com/2013/01/rockin-reading-workshop-gingerbread.html I hope this helps! PS...Good luck on the Soldier Field 10 miler this weekend! You should have some gorgeous, cool weather! :)
Wow wow wow. I just finished writing learning targets aligned to ccss for te district and this product is the epitome of perfect. So fantastically cute and yet so much depth. Thanks Amanda Cheriiebutterfly06@yahoo.com

Can you explain your mentor text for the month? Do you use a new book each month? Are they used for your reading lessons? Thanks for sharing.
