Reading Adventure Pack: Sleep

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

A reading adventure pack features two stories—Time to Sleep by Denise Fleming and Animals Don’t Wear Pajamas by Eve Feldman. In response to reading the fiction and nonfiction texts, scholars create a dreamcatcher, discuss hibernation, visit websites about animal sleeping patterns, set up a cozy nest to relax, make papercraft animals, and observe their bodies in rest and motion.
