Hey, Little Ant

If you haven't checked out Cara's Hey, Little Ant writing activity at The First Grade Parade you need to check it out!

I tried it out with my class and they LOVED it.  My kiddos have done an excellent job of stating their opinions and giving reasons why.

After the read aloud we discussed what the boy should do.  I LOVE that this book ends with a question.  We listed reasons why the ant should and shouldn't be squished.

Here are few examples.  Of course I couldn't just stop at the writing.  I had to take some adorable pics.  Since I couldn't get my hands on a pair of HUGE glasses I made them on the spot.

Here are some examples!!
