Teachers Collection: Miss Mingo and the First Day of School

Miss Mingo and the First Day of School by Jamie Harper

This story is a sure way to add some smiles and laughs in your classroom! Miss Mingo, the flamingo teacher, is faced with a class of animals (alligators to pandas) who, at first, are a bit shy. Doesn’t that already remind you of the 1st days in your classroom!? The animal students quickly open up as they begin to share interesting facts of themselves. The book is filled with tons of information to especially grab the attention of the animal lovers in class!

I recommend this book as a read aloud for grades K – 3.
