Sick Simon Book Companion

This packet is designed for use with the book Sick Simon by Dan Kroll.

The story is about a boy named Simon who goes to school even though he is sick.

The packet covers language arts concepts including sequencing, prediction, story elements, character traits, text to self connection, and comprehension.

There is a section of work with the words cold, cough, cover, germ, sick, sneeze, tissue, wash

I hope that you will enjoy reading this book and using these printables as much as my students and I do.
