"The Naughty Tiger"

In the Deep, Deep Jungle…


In April, the children began writing a story about animals in the jungle. We decided we would continue to work on this story and make it into a book. We discussed how when books are being written and published, the story goes through many processes before it is complete. As we continued the story, we reread and edited our story. The children decided which parts of the story they wanted to keep, and which details needed elaboration. We also discussed needing illustrations for the book. The children first drew their animals and bugs on paper. Next, they used various loose parts to make their characters three-dimensional. Images of these characters will be transformed into the illustrations for our book. As the children continue to finish their characters, they also continue to work on editing their story.
