We completed our reading of the wonderful and heart warming holiday story Fig Pudding this week. The kids loved every minute of it and couldn't wait to get to class to see what would happen next. Since we only had a short window of opportunity to work on our book projects we kept them simple and created character posters. I was extremely impressed with the creativity and effort displayed in such a short amount of time. Way to go 5th graders.
This was also an excellent opportunity to practice our public speaking skills with a microphone.
The next book on our agenda is The Homework Machine in January.
