THE DIARY OF THE BABT WOMBAT

I have cosen this book because i think is a good way for work the days of the week, and also for work times in a day, like morning, afternoon and night.

In addition they can do a diary using the verbs that are more common, and they can draw pictures for do easier.

At the end of the week we can compare their activities during the week.

Also i think is a good book because the pictures are very expressive and the children usually don't know what is a wombat so is curious.
