Ideas

The Lucky Day by Keiko Kasza
Share the title of the book and I give examples of some things that would make a day lucky, e.g. being able to sleep until noon or finding $100 to spend. Next, allow students to think what would make a day lucky for them. (20 seconds)  Then pair-share ideas in one minute, 30 seconds each.

  • Students could use the title of the book as a title of their own story about a lucky day.
  • Students could use the final page of the book to write a sequel to this story.
  • Students could write the story from the fox's point of view.
  • Students could write a story titled "The Unlucky Day."
