Plan + Prep to Use Burrows & Holes | Gather 'Round Ready to Read 1 | FAQ, Booklist, + More!
OPEN description for booklist suggestions, educational video links, and further ideas and resources! Watch this video to learn more about the Burrows and Holes Unit from Gather 'Round Homeschool. "Burrows and Holes" is Book 1 of the Ready to Read Units from Gather 'Round. There will be 4 books in the Ready to Read series, each with its own theme. This series is different from their usual units. The main units that Gather 'Round makes are designed to be used with multiple ages of children. Burrows and Holes is specifically designed for that child around kindergarten age who is just beginning to learn to read. The thoughts and advice in this video about using this curriculum are my own and not that of the publishers of the curriculum. Booklist Suggestions: The following are my own suggestions from research and experience, or have been collected as suggestions from other homeschool moms! Again, this is not something "from" Gather 'Round, this is just an addition for those who are looking for picture books to go along with the study. I hope that this list is a helpful resource for you as you're planning your own Burrows and Holes study!
