Salutations!
We've completed our novel study of Charlotte's
Web, the beloved classic about a pig named Wilbur whose life is saved thanks to his
friend Charlotte, a clever spider who is a "true friend and a good writer". The tale contains lessons of friendship,
loyalty, life, and death.
The class used lapbooks containing a ton of graphic organizers and comprehension
questions during our novel study.
The students revealed what wonderful word weavers and
poets they are on our Charlotte's Web
bulletin board that displays spiders decorated with words Charlotte
The bulletin board also displays student-created brochures for the
state fair where Wilbur wins the blue ribbon.
We spun together a test review and fun using a spiderweb manipulative. Each student picked a spider task card off the whiteboard
web and asked classmates to answer the comprehension question on the back.
Our
unit cumulated with a Charlotte's Web
party. We munched on popcorn (representing fair food), animal crackers
(representing the barn animals), and pink candy sticks (representing Wilbur)
while we watched the Charlotte
The
unit can be purchased at my TPT store:
Happy
teaching!
