Amelia Bedelia Teacher Guide

Amelia Bedelia Teacher Guide

From dressing the chicken to drawing the drapes, Amelia Bedelia does exactly what Mr. and Mrs. Rogers tell her to do. If things get a bit mixed up, well, that’s okay. When Amelia is involved, everything always turns out perfectly in the end!

Peggy Parish is the author of several books for children, including Amelia Bedelia and the Liza, Bill & Jed mysteries. Fritz Siebel illustrated pictures for Cat and Dog, David and the Giant, Tell Me Some More, and many more.

Memoria Press literature guides, like our Amelia Bedelia Teacher Guide, train students to become active readers. Our guides focus on vocabulary, spelling, comprehension, and composition skills. Each lesson includes a word study to help students build vocabulary. Equally important, comprehension questions teach students to think about what they have read and to identify the important content of each story. They also teach student to compose a clear, concise answer to a question, a difficult skill at any age.

Children who are asked to read slightly above their comfort level will develop into superior readers. Reading is not a passive activity for pleasure. Reading requires an active, discriminating mind that is challenged to think, compare, and contrast. Students who have first been challenged by good literature will never be satisfied with poor-quality books later.
