Lesson information
I have always enjoyed reading the Amelia Bedelia books with my daughter which inspired this book unit.
During this lesson you will read the silly story Amelia Bedelia Goes Camping with your child. Your child will learn about idioms as they think about why some of the events in this story happen. Then, your child will then pretend they are camping as they retell the story in their own words.
