Since this year's theme was "The Art of the Picture Book" I did a lesson on The Rainbow Fish story. This lesson I did a few years ago and have not used in a long time. I revamped it and integrated a wide range of content. This lesson included the following topics of study:
1. Cool Colors
2. Friendship, Caring, Sharing, Teamwork, Together
3. Texture, Imprint, Relief, Clay, Sculpture
4. Writing and Literature(Reading the story, writing-see worksheet below)
Sorry about these images below, I couldn't figure out how to rotate them but basically they are note cards that are labeled with fish parts and on the back of each card is the function of each fish part. Students received a card and had to walk up to the enlarged fish poster and label the parts and explain what the parts characteristic is.
