Craft Lesson for Sidewalk Circus

Fleischman, Paul and Hawkes, Kevin. Sidewalk Circus. Picture book. Cambridge MA: Candlewick Press, 2004

I would group the children in groups of two and allow then to read the book together. After each child has read the book to their partner I would have the children write their story. I want the children to under how to use the pictures for clues and to work on their descriptive writing. In this lesson I want the children to work on the descriptive writing. Each child will be asked to share a portion of there writing. This book could be used in various grades but this lesson will be used in a 4th grade class room based on Teks 110.6
