Fun With the Book "The Mitten"

We had a lot of fun this week reading, retelling and responding to "The Mitten" by Jan Brett! I always love to have the kids retell the story with props and this year I tried something a little different. Take a look.
Students colored and cut out a mitten that we then stapled to a ziploc bag.
Here you can see the animals that are "in" the mitten. My kiddos had a great time with this retelling project!

Awesome idea to use with the book! I bet your students loved doing this project and I always love to hear them retell the story with props.

Hi, i just found your blog and I love what you have posted. I was wondering if i can have a copy of your writer's workshop papers you have on your wall. Also, your voice meter and your star writing paper. I love the one you made showing how to color. Thank you
