I am trying to incorporate a craft for each story, just to get creative juices flowing and for some of my students who have poor handwriting to work on fine motor skills. Since our theme is the day and night sky and we are focusing on poetry I was going to give them chalk and a black piece of paper to draw the night sky. In addition we are going to write a poem using an outline. My class has done this several times and they always come up with creative stuff.
____________ looks like___________ Night looks like dark
____________sounds like__________ Night sounds like bats
____________feels like____________ Night feels like cold
____________smells like__________ Night smells like campfire s'mores
____________tastes like___________ Night tastes like hot dog roasts
_____________ is _______________ Night is fun
Some times they get stuck on the harder ones like what night smells like, but I try to get them to focus on a night time event like a camp out or BBQ that runs late or a sleep over!!
