Common Core Standards: 1.RL.9 Compare and contrast the adventures and experiences of characters in stories

1.RL.7 Use illustrations and details in a story to describe its characters, setting, or events

Miss Nelson is Missing gives a great example of two different characters as well as a fairly simple setting, problem and solution. This book stands out to me because it is very straight forward when thinking of story elements. Students at this age need those elements to be concrete. Students are asked to compare and contrast two characters using a Venn Diagram. This book provides a great opportunity for students to do this. Also, this book provides students the opportunity to describe the setting, and the problem and solution in this book. Miss Nelson is missing is a grade level appropriate text for first grade students as the students in this book are the same age as they are. Students will be able to make connections to the text as well. Students can relate to a time when there was a guest teacher in their classroom and how they felt about that teacher.
