Sorry, I'm a little late with my weekly news.
This week I'm in WH only on Thursday. I am meeting with K-Geelan and 2-Glawe.
K-Geelan: Students will use clues from 2 stories to decide what they might bring on a train ride. We will listen to My Freight Train by Michael Rex and look through and discuss trains from the book, Big Book of Trains published by DK Publishing, Inc.
2-Glawe: Students will listen to Draw Me a Star by Eric Carle and them make their own hanging star.
NEXT WEEK: I will be here on Monday [18-JAN] and Wednesday [20-JAN]. On Monday I will meet be in Kanawha at the MS and on Wednesday I will meet with 1st and 4th grades.
Eric Carle, creator of The Very Hungry Caterpillar and other beloved books for young people, was inspired to write Draw Me a Star by a drawing game he played as a child. Reciting a simple rhyme taught to him by his grandmother, he would draw a star over and over. But it was as an adult that he encountered the star again, and discovered its possibility in story.
Keep Reading!
