His friends worked so hard to throw him a surprise birthday party! Have you ever had a surprise birthday party? What was your best birthday party ever? In this class, students will listen to the story "Happy Birthday, Tacky" by Helen Lester. Next, students will discuss their own birthdays as they color pictures for Tacky's birthday.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I have taught Kindergarten through third grade in the public and charter school setting. A child's birthday is a very special day, and I hope that children can have fun chatting about their own special day through this fictional story about a penguin's birthday.
