This week we wrapped up our study on earth materials and natural resources by doing a book study on versions of The Three Little Pigs. Throughout this week the students read different versions of this story and compared the differences between them. One version of the story was told from the pig's point of view and the other version of the story was told from the wolf's point of view. Students then had to voice their opinion and say which story they believed more and state reasons why. In groups, students also made models of the Three Little Pigs houses using straw, popsicle sticks and sand. The students worked really well in their groups and were very creative in their interpretation of the houses. Finally, the whole grade level decided to make our pumpkins for Halloween based on The Three Little Pigs. Below you will see a photo of our finalized product. I loved seeing some of the kids dressed as pigs and wolves too!
