Yet another book that I used in my reading groups just because my school library had multiple copies of it. When every student can follow along with their own copy, it makes it was easy to use as a class reader.
I'd never heard of this book before. It looks like it was published in 1994, so after my elementary school days. Although with the stilted "made-for-school" style the book is written in, one could easily imagine it having been published in the 1970s or 1980s.
Everyone likes a cute dog story, so this book works well enough in my classroom. Although when my students asked what Rosie is doing now, I had to tell my students that Rosie is most likely dead at this point. (That's the problem with cute dogs.) Which sobered the mood of the class a bit.
I was able to easily find ready made Kahoots on this book, which indicate it must be popular in other classrooms.
Speaking of which, here are the Kahoots: Rosie, the Visiting Dog's Story comprehension test, Rosie, A Visiting Dog's Story. I used both of these Kahoots in my class, and also combined them into one Kahoot. That Kahoot is here.
