Workshop
We will continue our unit on Fantasy Books. Next week the kids will learn about readers learning real life lessons from fantastical characters, how quests can be internal as well as external, and comparing themes in fantasy and history. I am reading out loud the book: The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe to help connect our learning with a real example.
