This book has been a K-1 favorite for as long as we have been teaching, and that's pretty much FOREVER! We love Harold and his UNBELIEVABLE imagination. Just where could a purple crayon take YOU! When he is supposed to be sleeping, Harold decides to create a whole world of experiences by drawing them IN his world with a purple crayon, until at last he draws his bed, and draws the covers up over himself and goes to sleep. Most young children will relate to Harold, because they see the world through crayon purple colored glasses all the time. After reading, try some of our favorite things to do with this book from our book extension in our TPT store.
One of our favorite activities is getting to use all those odd colored purple crayons! They get to color the picture using ONLY purple. Have you ever noticed how many shades of purple there are?
Reducing pages on the printer / copier to 85% will make them fit into your Reading Journals!
In this extension, you will find many engaging activities to promote comprehension, and much more.
