So if you’re searching for Autumnn lesson plans and resources for your classroom, look no further!

Here are 10 of our favorite Fall resources:


Fall Literacy Lessons 

The Autumn Adapted Piece Book Set is a seasonal staple for storytime. These interactive pieces will help you transform eight of the most famous children’s books into an exciting reading experience. We’ve found that even students who don’t love reading enjoy these! This set includes pieces for titles such as Red Leaf Yellow, Leaf, Ten Orange Pumpkins, and Pumpkin Jack. 

Teach your students about the changing seasons with this Autumn Adapted Book and use it during small group instruction or morning meetings. This reader focuses on changing leaves, Fall holidays, and other seasonal vocabulary.

Have you read Fletcher and the Falling Leaves? This is an adorable Fall story about a fox named Fletcher who worries when the leaves start falling from his favorite tree. The Fletcher and the Falling Leaves Book Companion is filled with cross-curricular, no-prep lesson extensions. It’s a story unit made easy!
