My Project

We have only one Lego/building brick person, and my students always ask me for more people. They are very hard to find at regular stores. The Very Hungry Caterpillar is a story I read every year religiously, and I love to tie it into our caterpillar study at the end of the year. I think this story kit will improve their overall engagement and make reading this story even more fun!

My students are so sweet and love being at school.

I want to make it so that they love it even more!
