The Hallo-Wiener
The Hallo-Wiener | Dav Pilkey
24 posts | 10 read | 1 to read
From Dav Pilkey, creator of Captain Underpants, a funny tale of a little dog with a big bullying problem. Oscar is short, like all dachshunds, and all the other dogs make fun of him. On Halloween he takes more ridicule than ever in his hot-dog costume, but one brave act makes him a Grade-A hero -- proving that a little wiener can be a real winner!

I think that all 3 of my kids have read & loved this book (my oldest is 19). My 8 year old still thinks this is the best story. Poor Oscar the wiener dog just wants to have a spooky Halloween costume but instead he‘s a “wiener-dog.” #scarathon #BatBrigade

Last weekend I visited my brother & his family so I had some fun reading to my younger niece. Hallo-wiener was our favorite & the two witch books were our least favorite. It was just over an hour of time for 6 'thons.

1) Yes! I love to carve pumpkins. We have only painted some so far. We will carve close to Halloween. 🎃
2) Orange. But lately I like having some white around the house.
3) I can't read scary books!!! I'm a total wuss. 😬 I like mysteries and some thrillers though.

The Girl Child and I painted pumpkins today! While watching The Nightmare Before Christmas and Frankenweenie. 🎃 If you look closely, you'll see Sabrina watched with us. 🐶 Ramses (my weenie dog) watched too. He's just not in the picture. 🐶🙃 #saturday #halloween #pumpkins

I have no children, but I do have a wiener dog named Ripley. So of course I had to buy this board book about a little dachshund going trick or treating on Halloween dresses as a hot dog. #TeamStoker #Scarathlon 6 pts

This was cute enough for a kids book about Halloween, although definitely not a favourite from all those I read this year. + 6 for #TeamSlaughter 🎃

The Hallowiener is a simple story of the underdog becoming the top dog. 🐕
This fictional tail** is a cute uplifting story written and illustrated by Dav Pulley who is also the creator of Captin Underpants.

J.Cash Though this is not an award winning book there are many great ways to use it. Some teaching strategies I might use are, RA, AS, LC, RT, and PR. 6y
J.Cash http://www.timelessteacherstuff.com/readerstheater/Hallowiener.html this is a sript for teaching this book with readers theater it has parts already written out and can be a quick easy way to interest the class in this book. #UCFLAE3414SP18 6y

The Hallo-Wiener is a children‘s picture book written and illustrated by Dav Pilkey. I love this because it teaches kids to be nice to each other. After giving Oscar a hard time about his hot dog costume, his classmates come to appreciate Oscar when he shows his bravery. The teaching strategy I chose was Storytelling (S) because I would read this book to my class around Halloween. Read below ⬇️ #UCFLAE3414SP18

AmeliaS21 Storytelling would be a great way to add sound effects and act out the book. Bringing the book to life would add to the student‘s experience. UDL: 8.3 ESOL: 2, 10 This link provides a lesson plan that is created for this book. https://www.scholastic.com/teachers/lesson-plans/teaching-content/hallo-wiener-d... 6y
DrSpalding You should absolutely story tell this book. Do you know that this author is the mastermind behind the Captain Underpants series? If you like this book, maybe you should choose him for your author study. Try to elaborate on your principles and strategies a bit more. 6y
AmeliaS21 @DrSpalding I did learn that this author was the author of Captain Underpants when I was looking up if the book had an award! 6y

Hervela.L You have posted a really great book. I would most definitely read this book on Halloween to my students. (edited) 6y
morganhillman I‘ve never heard of this book, but it sounds awesome! I love the message behind it and think it would be a great one to read in October to get students excited and prepared for Halloween! 6y
KaitlynN I like how you said you would use this on Halloween! I think it‘s a cool way to use the theme! 6y
Cruzdia1 The illustration of this cover immediately drew me in! Although I try not to judge a book by its cover I‘m glad the story includes themes about kindness, acceptance and inclusion. 6y
AmeliaS21 @Hervela.L thank you Hervela! 6y
AmeliaS21 @morganhillman it‘s a cute book! You should definitely check it out! 6y
AmeliaS21 @KaitlynN thank you! I love sticking with themes! 6y
AmeliaS21 @Cruzdia1 it‘s an important lesson for kids to learn! 6y

4⭐️ Sometimes we do things for our parents that make us uncomfortable. For Oscar it was wearing a hot dog costume on Halloween. He was made fun of and laughed at, but everything worked out in the end.

Dav Pilkey‘s “The Hallo-Wiener” is a F picture book, that would fit perfectly in a RT activity. This book is about a brave dog named Oscar who rescues his fellow classmates that weren‘t so nice. There is a great message in this story! Please read and found out more about Oscar a.k.a. Hero Sandwich. http://www.timelessteacherstuff.com/readerstheater/Hallowiener.html This link takes you to the reader‘s theatre dialogue. My teaching strategies are

AJones UDL 8.3 fosters collaboration and community and EL 13 preview/review activities. Have students take home the script so they can study and become familiar with their lines. And it would make an excellent show, where students perform in front of other classes. 👻 Happy Halloween! 🎃 #ucflae3414f17 (edited) 7y
MakennaK This is such a cute time to read around the Halloween season! I would read this to my class and do an activity about the book after we have read! 7y
Jaquessial I love the cute puppets. Awesome idea do Halloween. Spooktacular. 7y

Floribelg I'm happy you included a readers theatre because students can be more engaged! Cute books with messages like these are my favorite, can't wait to read this. #ucflae3414f17 7y
KayleeC I think the reader theatre is a great idea! Such a cute book to read during this time of year as well as engaging! 7y
alyssahp How cute! This sounds like a great book @AJones, I might just gave to check it out. Using RT is a great idea because kids love to be involved & it will probably help them remember the story even better. Awesome! :) 7y
DrSpalding Wonderful book, wonderful resource and wonderful classroom application utilizing readers theater which enhances fluency. Your stick puppets eluded to the fact that it would make a nice storytelling around Halloween as well.🎃 7y
ElizabethR0309 Such a great idea to ad readers theater to the book kids will defiantly enjoy acting this out. 7y
Nataliea.escobar The little puppets are perfec! Great for a read aloud in the classroom! 7y
KarinaGuillen How adorable! Readers theater is perfect for getting students excited and involved in the story! I love the puppets 7y
ashley.v This book looks perfect for a reader‘s theatre. It is a good one to do for Halloween. 7y
AshleyAA An excellent resource!! Students will be so engaged as they follow along in this readers theater. I feel students gain a deeper connection with a story when they are actively engaged. 6y

This is Dav Pilkey at his best. Puns aplenty about a wiener dog who saves the day.
