I could also intergate a mini lesson on following instruction to go along with the book.Ĥ) Individual students who might benefit from reading : Not to be biased but I could see boys benefitting from this boy more since it's about boy scouts.ĥ) Small group use (literary circles) : I could test the students knowledge on this book in a small group setting. As you read the book it shows daddy bear was wrong about everything and the boys learned a valueable lesson to always read their book and follow instruction.Ģ) Grade level, interest level, lexile : kindergarten-3, I would recommend for age level 5 and up, I couldn't find the exile.ģ)Appropriate classroom use : I would have this book on my reading shelf for my students to read during quiet time. Daddy wanted to tag alone because he said the boys needed an adult who knew everything about camping. He still likes the bears.ġ) Book Summary: The Bear Scouts book is about the boys were in the boy scouts group and one day they had to go on a camping trip. I tend to follow most instructions, I feel. I am usually telling him not to do something stupid and he isn’t reading the manual, so he is really Papa bear, but all I said to him was, “Is that so?” He laughed at me. You always do stuff wrong.” Well that is his opinion. When the story was over he looked at me and said, ‘you’re kinda like Papa bear. He caught on quick and everytime Papa bear suggested something, he would say, No, don’t do it. He laughed and laughed at all the silly things Papa bear did. The nephew thought this story was hysterical. I like the ending line “Dad has shown us quite a lot about what’s smart and what’s not.” The scouts have a guide book that keeps them all safe and Papa bear doesn’t do any of those things, so of course the bears have to rescue him.

This is a tongue in cheek little comedy about father bear trying to show the bear scouts what to do and everything he says is completely wrong. The stories seem better to me when they rhyme and they roll off the tongue as well. I forgot that these old stories of the Bears used to rhyme.
