1. Have you ever heard of this book? I hadn't, until I read it three years ago as part of our curriculum. It is a beautiful story about friendship, creativity and color. Seriously, check out how gorgeous these illustrations are:
My students were so inspired by this book that they wanted to make their own mural. Why not do it in a "cave," just like the lion did?
So we taped a huge piece of white paper to the back of a bookshelf. draped two blankets over the shelf and a chart stand, threw in the book (opened to the cave mural page) and a bunch of colored pencils and there you go... a super easy, fun and artistic way to make text-to-self connections!
3. Also, I just wanted to share that my blog was featured on {this website} along with tons of amazing blogs that I totally aspire to be one day. I am so flattered!
