we just read Why Monkeys Live in Tress
an African Folk Tale retold by Julius Lester...
the students created a cartoon strip sequencing the main
ideas of the story....
I cut 8 1/2 X 11 sheets of paper in half long ways
and students folded it in half long ways first, then in half two
more times to create 8 boxes...
before they began the activity they had to brainstorm the
8 most important events as the plot progresses...
some students tried for the bare minimum but
I showed cartoon strips and explained how
great their work will look when they saturate the
page in color...they loved it!
