Review # 1 was written on 2018-09-19 00:00:00 Michael Kierpaul Summary: Howard always seems to be in trouble because he does not listen. In class, his teacher puts him in the corner because he does not listen to her when she asks him to sit still. At lunch, he slips on a bana peel because he does not listen to his classmates. At recess, he is hit in the eye with a ball because he does not listen to his team mates telling him to pay attention. All of these consequences helped Howard decide to start paying attention. The next day, Howard listens and follow directions and his hard work and determination pays off. Reflection: This is a very engaging book for all students. It is easy to relate to because almost every students struggles with wanting to pay attention at school. The author also includes silly situations to help keep students engaged. The illustrations are very detailed and help the readers understand the story better. Lesson: This book would be a great lesson for students in helping them learn better listening skills. It directly shows consequences of not listening, and rewards of listening. It can also be used to guide a lesson about cause and effect. (If you don't listen, things wont turn out well).
