There are so many great aspects of Anna Dewdney’s Llama Llama books, it’s no wonder our little learners are in love with these books! One of our favorite activities to do with these books is practice making connections. They are wonderful books for teaching children how to make text to self connections. We like the idea of practicing making connections with children as the book is read aloud. You can simply have students share the text to self connections they make as you read aloud or record the connections on a page of chart paper. We have created a graphic organizer that you might want to use as a task for students to complete once the read aloud is complete. It can act as a check for you to know if students understand the idea of making text to self connections. Text to Self Connections Organizer
One reason children love listening to Anna Dewdney’s books is because of the rhyming words. Each book contains many pairs. We have pulled out sets of rhyming words from three of the Llama Llama books. We have created cards so students can practice matching the words. For younger students, guidance will be needed. As a class you can work to match the rhyming words. For older students, you might use these cards at a rhyming center.
Rhyming Cards:
Rhyming Words Recording Page Students record a pair of rhyming words and illustrate the words.
Llama Llama Learns a Lesson Students draw a picture to show the lesson Llama Llama learns and then draw a picture.
Graphic Organizer Students record the important parts of the story.
Feelings Students share how they would feel if they were Llama Llama. They also describe how they would react. Students can use pictures and words.
Llama Llama Class Book Students each get a page to complete. Students will write a sentence telling something that Llama Llama does. Their sentence should start with Llama Llama. They will then illustrate their work. Collect the pages when finished to make a class book. (For example, students might say: Llama Llama plays outside. The student will then draw a picture of Llama Llama playing at the park.)

We also love this Llama themed L cut-out from Brilliant Beginning Preschool
We also like the idea of gathering llama books with a nonfiction focus. In your class, you can make an anchor chart that lists how Llama Llama is different from a real llama.

Do you have other great books to accompany a focus on Llama Llama books in your class? We would love for you to share below.
After sitting still for a great book our kids need to get up and move! We created a gross motor movement game to go with the book Llama, Llama Red Pajama for this month's Virtual Book Club for Kids.

We love Anna Dewdney's Llama Llama series but our very first favorite of the books was Llama Llama Red Pajama! I have a soft spot in my heart for this book because I relate so very well to Mama Llama!
After you read this adorable story play this chase and tag game inspired by Llama Llama Red Pajama. Choose one child to be Baby Llama. Baby Llama is 'it' and hides his or her eyes while the other children line up all and an equal distance from Baby Llama. With the eyes still closed Baby Llama says, 'Llama, Llama, RED Pajama!' and any child wearing red has to take a step closer to Baby Llama. This continues as Baby Llama replaces red with other colors and the children quietly creep closer and closer.
Whenever the child pretending to be Baby Llama wishes he or she may decide to look and shout, 'Mama! Mama!' while beginning to chase the other kids. The first child tagged is the new Baby Llama. I can just imagine a whole group of kids wearing their pajamas to a sleep over or a pajama day at school and playing this game!
