The standards-based work of my class, centered on the book "The
Hat" by Jan Brett, is posted on our web page in Winter Wonderland. Rather than
reproduce that work, which is available for viewing online, I have included samples of
some of the follow-up activities engaged in by my class.
The written samples attached to this outline are examples of activities that students did after viewing the work done by other project participants. These sample activities are centered on the book "Stone Fox" by John Gardiner. Interviewing characters was a new activity that I hadn't taught in class, but it was modeled for my students on the web site. Students were encouraged to "mix and match" literary activities with different books in the project, resulting in highly engaged learning.
