Stellaluna Fun!

We launched our bat unit this week, focusing on the book Stellaluna by Janell Cannon. We learned about story elements including: characters, setting, and order of events. Next week we will dive deeper into informational texts with a direct focus on comparing and contrasting bats to spiders and birds. We are busy, busy, busy in first grade!

Are bats cute or creepy?! Students voted and then graphed the results!

Cute won..12-6!

So proud of their wonderful work on the setting of Stellaluna!

Learning about story elements and writing about Stellaluna was a hit!
