Modifications
|
I modified some of the activities from this author study unit for my
first grade class on the children's book author, Eric Carle.
|
Instructional
Objectives
|
Students Will:
- Read and comprehend at least three books by Eric Carle
- Produce a response to literature
- Demonstrate a basic understanding of the author's style
in their art works.
|
Technology Integration
|
After scanning
all the children's art works, we used kidpix to make a slideshow
of their work.
|
Assessment
|
After many read-alouds of Eric Carle's books, children reread and chose
their favorite story. Then each child created their own Eric Carle
stories. They also created their own artworks using Eric Carle's
style.
|
Tips for Teachers
|
I like the kidpix slide show idea to show their work.
