A sample of books to use with individual students, small groups, and in class lessons to support good attendance habits.
“Totally Tardy Marty” by Eric Perl
Marty is totally tardy all t
he time. There’s always a reason he’s late and “Never Late Kate” is determined to help him get to school on time. Activity: This book partners perfectly with Savvy School Counselor’s attendance packets. Before reading I like to start with a game of “Washing the Elephant.”
“Tiger Tail” by Mike Boldt
This is such an adorable book to talk about first day jitters and being unique.
I like to partner this book with individual or classwide rewards.
You can also have students use construction paper and make their own tiger tails, bunny ears, or fox faces.

Idea: Send parent this digital flip chart on attendance.
