Mercy Watson Fights Crime is a great short MF-S novel for the class. It has a great story line that keeps the attention of the students! A lesson that can be taken from this story is if you are mindful and unproblematic, good things come back to you! All Mercy wanted was some toast, and toast she got.

What does she do next? http://www.readwritethink.org/classroom-resources/calendar-activities/celebrate-... the link above is a fun activity for students to remember

SierraC Kate Dicamillo, and write their own short story. This book is perfect for students who are transitioning into chapter books, the chapters in this book are short and help guide the reader. My ESOL strategies are 2 and 3, this book is quick fun read and after the student read it by themselves they can talk in groups. My UDL strategy is 3.1, in this book we do have a thief and just to go over with my students what a thief is. (edited) 6y

prissy.mooney This sounds like such a great book! I‘m going to add this to my stack to read! I think kids would love this! 6y

DrSpalding Independent reading is just right for these books. Due to the content they could be read by higher level kindergarten students or in first and second grade. I love Mercy. ā¯¤ļø¸š· 6y

Mercy Watson Fights Crime is a fiction book. It is about Leroy who is a small man who has a big dream of being a cowboy but for now he is thief. Leroy is robbing a house where a large pig is staying in. Leroy is stealing a toaster which is something the pig loves. I found a website that has an activity that goes along with this book along with other books in this series. http://www.candlewick.com/book_files/0763636444.btg.1.pdf #ucflae3414sp17

This series is weird, weird, weird.

BookishMarginalia How so? 8y

LivinginaLibrary Very but my 6 year old loves them! They were the first chapter books he had any interest in. Mercy is really an awful per though! 8y

RebeccaH @BookishMarginalia it's about a couple who are extremely extremely devoted to their pig and it has an old woman named Baby, and they're all obsessed with buttered toast. 8y

RebeccaH @LivinginaLibrary my kid loves them too -- we now own 3 of them! 8y
