The Mitten is one of my favorite childhood books. The story is about several animals sharing a glove to escape the cold winter until the bear sneezes. As a child I was amazed as to how many animals were sleeping inside of the glove at the same time. This book has a lot of ideas and activities you can use inside of the classroom. If you’re interested in trying some of these activities, the websites is: www.teachingheart.net/mitten.html
Erica,
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw your post I made a quick research of the book on the internet and I really liked it.
In this story, children can learn the value of sharing. They also learn about the animals and their natural habitats. This book is a rich source to use in the classroom. We can use it to teach animals, weather, seasons, nature and so on...
Thank you for your sharing and link:)
