No matter which grade level I taught, I always found time to read aloud to my students. From 2nd graders up to 8th graders, my students loved listening to stories. I would read a wide array of books to my students, but I always made sure to end the day with an engaging picture book. I have a whole list dedicated to 180 days of picture books, but I’ve created this blog post for special books that will help you start your school year off right.
Here are 16 of my favorite beginning-of-the-school-year picture books that your students will really enjoy.
