George Washington A Printable Book for Fluent Readers

President's Day Crafts

Print out the following pages to make a George Washington book for fluent readers.

Before reading the book, have students fill out a KWHL chart on Washington. The KWHL chart should be used before, during, and after a student reads about Washington. Filling out the KWHL chart prepares a student for reading about a topic, helps in reviewing what has been learned about the material, gives help in obtaining more information, and readies the student to write about what they have learned.

Then have the students cut out each page of the book. Staple the pages together at the top of the page, then read the book and answer the questions.

To get back to this page from a printout, just click on the picture.

Skills practiced: reading, history.

For a pdf version of the entire book, click here (site members only).
