How to Incorporate This Theme in Your Class
This time of year is synonymous with the concept of rebirth, growth, and renewal. It is a great time to get your students writing on areas that incorporate these themes. A great project for older students is to have students write a story about a baby wild animal that was just born. Have students write about a day in their animal’s life. Everything is brand new to these little ones, so it is something they are experiencing for the first time ever, this should be reflected in student writing. When working with younger students I always love to do a nature walk and help them see things in nature that they may never pay attention to. Have them share about their experience through writing or drawing.
