Caldecott Activity: You be the Illustrator!

Our first and second graders are continuing their study of Caldecott award winners.

Today, Mrs. Lents read the 1957 Caldecott winner, A Tree is Nice by Janice Udry.  However, the kids heard the story without seeing any of the pictures!  Next, they were asked to illustrate their favorite part of the text!  Check out the slide show to see a few examples of their work!


After they finished, the kids shared their work with one another, then we looked through the book again, so they could compare their illustrations with the ones from the book.  And, of course, they were awarded their own Caldecott sticker for their fabulous work!

See the Youtube video below if you'd like to hear the story too!
