Use our digital assets and downloadables to help spread the love of reading in your home, school, or community all month long in April and beyond! D.E.A.R. Activity Sheets Here are several Ramona-inspired and common core-aligned activity sheets for classroom use.  Write an opinion piece about “what makes a happy family” with supporting evidence.  Have students assume the voice of Ramona to write “big sister advice” to Roberta.  Here are some tips to get students started on keeping a journal.  Ask students to write a character analysis on Ramona.  Have students read two books from the Ramona series and then compare and contrast the themes, settings, and plots.  Using a scene from a Ramona book, students should create a picture-book retelling.  Here’s a great questionnaire to help young children select the right book on their next trip to the library.  Make a top ten list of things you would drop everything for. And, then find a book based on that theme! D.E.A.R.
