Alvin the Dragon |
As a final wrap-up activity for our Fair Tale Unit, we wrote a class book titled "The Very Sad Dragon." We started by reviewing the elements of a fiction story. We then generated a list of ideas. I wish I had remembered to take a photo of our list. I told the kids that I wanted to use photos to illustrate the book so that limited us a little. We agreed right away that the characters would be our class and a dragon - the kids love our dress-up dragon (and I'm good at putting ideas in their heads :). We came up with lots of possible dragon names and then voted on our favorite....and Alvin the Dragon was born.
