Cassie's Quilt

Book Cover of "Cassie's Quilt"

Happy New Year, everyone!  I am going to try to be much more consistent with my blog posts this year.  It's my New Year's resolution!

In December, I read a wonderful book for my list-and-label unit that I wanted to share with all of you: Cassie's Quilt by Faith Ringgold.  This book is really cool, because it's very much on the kindergarten level and it really inspired my children to write about their own homes.  What subject is closer to our kids' hearts than where they live?  My students were eager to draw pictures of and label their living rooms, kitchens, and bedrooms with great detail after reading this book.

This book worked so well, I decided to make a writing folder with additional items that are better suited to modern times.  If you want to take a peek, here it is on TPT:

It's always a pleasure to hear from you!  You can leave a comment below.
