In this engaging class, students will listen to and discuss the award winning book "Not a Box". As a class, students will brainstorm all of the things that an ordinary box could be turned into. Then, students will individually brainstorm new ideas for their box and will share it with the class. After each student shares, the class will act out the idea. This is a hands-on class that includes introductions where students will practice saying hello to new friends, listening skills during the short story and practice in asking questions about reading material using complete sentences. Finally, students will make connections to the story. Students will have the opportunity to share their ideas while also engaging with the ideas of others.
Learning Goals
- Students will practice listening skills.
- Students will use critical thinking skills to ask questions and develop new ideas.
