Bad Kitty is a funny book that provides an opportunity to teach about goods and services.
Before Reading: Show the cover of the book. Ask students why they think the book is called Bad Kitty. Then ask: What is the opposite of Bad Kitty? When they say good kitty, write the word Good. Then put an 's' after good so it says Goods. Tell students they are going to learn another meaning of the word goods. Read the informational text we created about goods and services.
During Reading: Tell students to take note of all the goods and services they see in the book. Most of these will be found on the A-Z food pages. Ask students to draw some of the goods and services Bad Kitty provided.
After Reading. Take photos of goods or people doing services to create an alphabet book! Download the free alphabet organizer from ReadWriteThink.org to create your own goods and services alphabet book.
These ideas were adapted from the lesson I wrote for EconEdLink.org. https://econedlink.org/resources/bad-kitty-gets-good-goods-and-services/ Extension: Use the BadKitty website to find great activities and videos to use with the books! Comments are closed.
