Finally got down to read this classic. I don't remember having it as a child, but since my reread of The Starless Sea it kept spinning around in my head. Since I don't have kids, I can't really say how it depicts a child's tantrum, but when I think back to the ones I had as a child, it's a lovingly told story about how it feels to be in rage and calming down again.

I thought that the illustrator did a great work in the detail of the pictures. The color tone sets the vibe of the book. I appreciate the message of the book because it is a great reminder to everyone.

In this book the author does a great job of adding the message, even when you are scared you can find comfort. Max finds himself in a jungle in his bedroom and is terrified to find monsters but becomes the king of them all. In my opinion tells people reading the story that you do have control of the situations you are in.

Where the Wild Things Are is a timeless masterpiece that delves into a child's imaginative world. Max's journey to the land of the Wild Things is a tale of emotions and adventure. The book beautifully portrays the comfort of returning home after an exploration of one's feelings and imagination.

This book is another one of my favorites that my parents used to read to me all the time. I love the story and how it shows that a child's imagination can be healing and helpful in emotional times. I also love the pictures and story because it is so timeless. It will always be an amazing books that children will love to listen to and look at.

Written and illustrated by Maurice Sendak in 1963 won a Caldecott medal in 1964. A boy wearing a wolf suit was so angry in his bedroom that it turned into a jungle where the wild things live. He must ride a boat to find them and when he does they find that the boy is the wildest of them all. He becomes their king and they run wild together.

This is a story about a young boy named Max. Max is very imaginative and imagines this new world in the jungle with all of these crazy creatures that he creates called the Wild Things. He uses his imagination to take him to this new place where he can learn and have fun and get away from real life for a bit. This is a classic story that is always a hit in the classroom. I would say it is a must read.

Where The Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak is a Caldecott Medal winner for the Most Distinguished Picture Book of the Year. This book brings to life the imagination of a little boy named Max. He travels to a land full of wild things but this books holds a deeper meaning at the end of the book creating a truly amazing read aloud book.

Where the Wild Things Are | Maurice Sendak

Where The Wild Things are uses illustrations and and descriptive language to bring a child‘s imagination to life. The gray hues of illustrations of his everyday life contrast boldly against the colorful illustrations of the land with all of the wild things. This classic story is a great read for anyone with an active imagination.

This is about a little boy names Max who is sent to bed without having dinner. When Max falls asleep, he is transported from his bedroom to a forest where he is surrounded by an ocean. This is the land Max escapes to go be with the Wild Things. He ends up meeting a lot of different creatures who are just as mysterious and wild as he is.

Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak is about a boy named Max who is becoming very mischievous and his mom is fed up with it and decides to send him to his room. While Max was in timeout, his imagination takes him to a new world where the wild things are and Max is now in control. When he's done being king of the wild things and is ready to be a little boy again, he returns to his room, he notices that his mom is still upset with him.

olivia_danko This modern fantasy and award-winning Caldecott book would be best taught using UDL 8.3 (Foster collaboration and community) by having a class discussion about how imagination can take us to wherever our heart desires.
The ELS strategy I'd use is EL 6 (Continually monitor student comprehension) have the students read independently while spending time with each student making sure they are understanding the story.
With the following lesson:

This HF, RA Caldecott Award winning classic will be a great add to primary classrooms! Readers will follow Max on his adventure through his imagination (the theme) after he is sent to bed without supper. This book would do well as a read aloud. Reading rockets provides helpful strategies to help engage students with the text https://www.readingrockets.org/article/revisiting-read-alouds-instructional-stra...

Betrinag UDL Principle 2.1 concerning clarifying vocabulary and symbols, along with EL strategy 5- teaching technical vocabulary supporting key concepts- will further support the read aloud. #ucflae3414sp21 3y

Betrinag @JasmineLangley I also loved both! @PatriciaS i agree that it helps build, or even encourage the growth of imagination of younger minds! 3y
DrSpalding As you have learned, teaching vocabulary is vital to student comprehension. Your universal design principle 2.1 and English learner strategy number five support this during effective read alouds. Continue to do this as you practice your read aloud skills during internship. 3y

This Caldecott Award winning MF story is great for boosting students imagination. As students listen to the RA, they can begin to use their imagination to think of how Max is experiencing the place where the wild things are.

OliviaBuck This story follows a pattern of traveling to where the wild things are, becoming their king, and traveling home, which aligns with UDL 3.2- highlight patterns, critical features, big ideas, and relationships. EL strategy 6- continually monitoring students comprehension also aligns with this RA because the teacher can pause to ask questions, allowing to monitor how students are comprehending the story. 3y
OliviaBuck Teachers can also use strategies from https://www.readingrockets.org/article/reading-aloud-build-comprehension, such as pausing to make connections. #ucflae3414sp21 3y

Where The Wild Things Are, by Maurice Sendak, is A Caldecott Award Winner, and it‘s about a young boy who lets his imagination run wild. One night, he does not want to eat dinner, so he goes to his bedroom early and imagines a world full of monsters and mayhem. They do not eat him like you‘d think, they make him king! #ucflae3414su20

Where the Wild Things Are is an artfully drawn MF story by Maurice Sendak. This multiple award winner is the story of “wild thing” Max who gets in trouble for his behavior and imagines running away from home to where the wild things are. This story seems perfect for an S strategy in conjunction with an SEL lesson about behaviors and consequences. Resources: https://www.teachingideas.co.uk/library/books/where-the-wild-things-are
#ucflae3414su20

nquintus To coincide with the S strategy, Where the Wild Things Are presents ample opportunity to integrate visual art into English, making the book and its lessons more memorable for the students. (See resources linked above) I highly recommend using ESOL strategies 5: teach vocabulary that supports key concepts and 17: provide contextual support through visuals, gestures & realia, as well as UDL 9.2 and 9.3 regarding coping skills and self-reflection. 4y
DrSpalding I truly appreciate your focus on social emotional learning. Your universal design principles certainly match this topic. Storytelling is an excellent strategy for this book. Some consider this book realistic fiction… Only if you believe Max is dreaming. 4y

Max goes on to tame the wild things in a far away land but misses the one that loves him most and heads back home after sending the wild things to bed without supper. It is a 1964 Caldecott Medal winner and the 1970 Hans Christian Andersen Award for Illustration as well as the 1983 Laura Ingalls Wilder Award winner. 4y
Ameyer32 This would be a great story for RT. For ELLs I would use graphic organizers like semantic mapping and imaging and help students to use them to ensure comprehension (7).
