This past week, we read the story Cookie's Week, all about a cat who causes mischief all over his house!
To practice our ability to retell important parts of a story, we made our own "Cookie" puppets! These puppets helped us practice retelling the main parts of this story.
Then we jumped at the opportunity to write our own versions of this story! In our own stories about Cookie, we imagined this tricky kitty spent a week at St. Nicholas. What kinds of mischief did this little trickster get into?
After a walk around the building, we brainstormed places he could make a little trouble.
Then, using sentences frames, we wrote and illustrated our own stories!
These stories will take several days of diligent writing and creative, careful illustrating.
We're having so much fun imagining the mischief Cookie would cause at our school!
Watch for these stories, as well as a rubric, coming home soon!
