Literacy Connections: The Biggest, Best Snowman

Students have the opportunity to role-play situations in our Olweus Bully Prevention Program

We read the story "The Biggest, Best Snowman" and made our own versions.

I had a model on the board to show the correct proportions. Christian finished his work early and helped jazz up our snowman. :)

Our finished book cover illustrations- next week we will add in the writing component.
