Before completing the story ask the children to describe how David's mother felt about him even though he did many naughty things. Encourage the children to talk about their own experiences. Ask the children to think of how they can end their book so that it will be similar to what David experienced with his mother. Provide the children with materials needed to conclude their story. Invite children to also think of a title for their story.
Interested children can work together to create a front cover and back page for their book.
Bind all of the pages together. Enjoy the book during shared reading time. Read the book David Goes to School by David Shannon to the children. Invite the children to compare No, David with this book. Children can create another big book based on David Goes to School or make individual books about their own school experiences.
