My Project

I love when my students get hooked on reading! They fall in love books, sometimes for the first time ever and it's so much fun to watch them eat up every book and story that they can get their hands on! They use silly voices, act our their favorite scenes, and they learn moral lessons from the beloved characters.

I want students to bring these silly, familiar book characters and stories to life!

I want to order magic model clay and shrinky dink paper for students to use to animate our stories. They will get to sculpt and mold their favorite scenes from the stories that we study.

Not only will students get to explore their creativity, but they’ll also deepen their understanding and connection to the stories. This hands-on experience will help them to internalize the lessons and themes of the books in a fun, memorable way. By creating physical representations of their favorite scenes and characters, they’ll have the opportunity to express themselves artistically, all while reinforcing their love for reading. This project will help students not only bring their imaginations to life but also see the endless possibilities that stories and creativity can offer!
