MISS NELSON IS BACK: SEQUENCING ACTIVITY & READING COMPREHENSION

Miss Nelson is Back by James Marshall is a delightful children's book that engages young readers with its clever sequencing and reading comprehension elements. The story follows the return of the beloved Miss Nelson, a kind and patient teacher who initially disappeared to teach her unruly students a lesson.

The sequencing of events allows children to follow the plot development, connecting the consequences of the students' behavior with Miss Nelson's reappearance. As readers progress through the story, they are encouraged to employ their reading comprehension skills to understand the characters' emotions and motivations. The book's engaging narrative and well-structured plot not only entertain but also provide an excellent opportunity for young readers to enhance their comprehension abilities.
