Second setting, same character of the wolf. This time house is build of brick (unifix cubes). Wolf tries to blow house down and fails.

They will use the counter as the character and talk to the teacher or partner about two things that occur at the first setting then they will move the character to the second character to the second setting and tell two more things that occur at the second setting. They can then record on Seesaw or Flipgrid or write in a response journal.]]> 2018-08-14 18:45:10 UTC https://padlet.com/parks_melissa/k7yln6252p2x/wish/273122878 parks_melissa https://padlet.com/parks_melissa/k7yln6252p2x/wish/273258260 Using legos, students build a structure to represent the beginning, middle, and end of the story. ]]> 2018-08-15 14:19:25 UTC https://padlet.com/parks_melissa/k7yln6252p2x/wish/273258260 https://padlet.com/parks_melissa/k7yln6252p2x/wish/341799162 Using a ribbon, and clothes pins with prewritten key events about a historical figure's life for students to place in order into a timeline. ]]> 2019-03-15 15:13:02 UTC https://padlet.com/parks_melissa/k7yln6252p2x/wish/341799162 https://padlet.com/parks_melissa/k7yln6252p2x/wish/341799319 Using unifix cubes with beginning, middle, and end.
