I love Laura Numeroff books. The nice thing about this book was that most of my kids hadn't read it - so they really enjoyed listening to the story.
We read the story and then did a word sort with "P" and "M" words together. Students then did the sort on their own. We made a mouse craft and finished a predictable chart "I would take a mouse to _____________". It turned out really cute!

For math, we strung popcorn numbers (1-30) with partners! The kids had fun. My hope next year is to have a paper tree large enough to hang up the popcorn strings when we are finished!
A special thanks to the First Grade Parade Blog for the inspiration!
