Publisher's Description of 100 Days of School Mad Libs Junior
Let's VERB up and down and celebrate the first 100 days of school with Mad Libs Junior!Inside this Mad Libs Junior, you'll find all the ways to celebrate the first 100 days of school! This interactive book is perfect for beginning readers who aren't yet comfortable with parts of speech. With easy-to-follow directions and word banks to guide them, readers can enjoy crafting 21 exciting stories, based on all kinds of fun 100 Days activities!
Q: What helps you learn your parts of speech while providing good, clean fun?
A: MAD LIBS! Mad Libs are books of stories with missing words. The reader asks a player for a part of speech (noun, adverb, etc.) to fill in each blank. The resulting story ranges from unusual to hysterical. Use them at parties, doctors' offices, during travel, or just enjoy them at home. Chances are that your kids won't even know they're learning, they'll be having so much fun!
Now even early readers who don't know their parts of speech can still play Mad Libs! Junior Mad Libs are larger in format and type and feature lists of possible nouns, adjectives, verbs, and adverbs which younger children can select and fill in the blanks to complete the story. The Junior Mad Libs are formatted similarly to the original Mad Libs, but where the original asks for a verb or noun beneath a blank space, Junior Mad Libs feature a symbol beneath each blank. These symbols correspond to symbols printed above a list of parts of speech, allowing the child to select the proper part of speech and fill it in the blank without having to come up with the part of speech on their own. Although we still prefer the original format for fun and learning the parts of speech, these make it easier for younger children to get in on the fun, too.
