I recently picked up a copy of an easy reader called, Shoe Town for Audrey to practice her reading skills. This adorable easy reader has a fun activity in the back of the book and we decided to give it a try.
This is an activity that can be adapted to any grade level and I just love it! In fact, if I were teaching again I think I would use for an open house display…so cute.
Start by tracing your shoes onto a piece of paper and then cutting them out. Audrey decided to create a picture storybook of our family:) She also wrote about our family on the last page. I was so impressed with the final outcome that I decided to laminate the book so we could it have it as a keepsake.

Audrey wrote, “I love my shoe town because I love my family. By Audrey”
Now this makes a mommy’s heart melt!!

That would totally make my heart melt too.
I remember loving that book back when I taught first grade.
