-Sign-In Activities: Use these for sign-in at the beginning of the day or for a tracing activity. Trace three words from the book! (3 cards)

-Character and Setting Cards: Use these cards to ask follow-up questions while reading the storybook. Put two cards out and have the students choose the correct card (binary choices). You can also use them to supplement cloze procedures. For example, “The main character is _______ (Rainbow Fish).” (6 cards)

-Where is Rainbow Fish hiding?: Pass the cards out randomly, upside down, giving one to each student. One student will be “It” and will try and guess which student received the Rainbow Fish card. One student will receive the Rainbow Fish card. The rest of the students will receive other fish cards. Once students receive their cards, they should memorize what they have and place the card under them. The person who is “it” will have 3 guesses to find Rainbow Fish. (12 cards)
