Where Do Balloons Go?: An Uplifting Mystery
Where Do Balloons Go?: An Uplifting Mystery is the whimsical tale of what happens to balloons when they slip out of a child's grasp. The book, written by Jamie Lee Curtis, uses humor to illustrate the endless possibilities of a balloons whereabouts. The book features extremely colorful and captivating illustrations, utilizes rhyming and even includes interesting vocabulary to further stimulate learning. This book was our chosen read-aloud for our mentoring program this semester and our students were entranced with the book (their favorite part included a balloon party!) and giggled throughout the entire book. The text was easily accessible to all students and the inclusion of more challenging vocabulary kept our older students engaged as well. In addition, I really enjoyed the sentimentality of the book, it's a great read no matter what the age.
Teaching ideas:
Divide students into groups and assign each group a set of pages in the book. Have students examine the hidden pop culture references in the book in order to teach allusion.
ELA CCSS-RL8.3, 8.4
Read the book aloud to students, then provide students with the book in a typed format. Have students analyze the rhyme scheme of the book and determine the purpose/effect behind the scheme.
ELA CCSS-RL6.5
