Reading Week Activity 2

Door decorations - Guess our favorite book or character

With your class, pick a favorite story character or book. Place 4-5 clues compiled by the class on your classroom door. You can choose to list your clues, draw pictures or create a box of props. (The clues should be posted by Wednesday. Students will walk around the school either in groups or pairs on Thursday to guess your favorite characters. Answers will be given during announcements on Friday morning).

Examples of a list:
I am a woman.
I have crazy blond hair.
I am a teacher.
I travel to exciting places with my class.
Some of our expeditions have been to the moon and under the sea.
