In Kindergarten and 1st Grade, we have been reading stories and creating artwork that is not only related to the story, but helps us to remember the story so we can retell it to others. This is great language practice, as well as recall. One the stories we recently read is The Mitten, by Jan Brett. The story is about a boy who loses his white mitten in the snow and one by one, animals crawl inside to keep warm. The students created a colorful mitten using lines and patterns. They then sewed them together with a fabric yarn. They colored and cut out each of the animals, so they could put them each inside the mitten as they retell the story.
