Stone Soup

PYP 2 students have been discussing and developing language that has largely been centered around the story STONE SOUP by Jon Muth.  We began the unit building knowledge about seasons, and then moved to communities, and finally on to foods we eat.  Students have been journaling, sorting vocabulary, practicing phonics skills, reading, and developing story element skills.  A lot of verbal communication is involved in the lessons, along with singing and hands-on activities that promote a stronger retention of the vocabulary and lesson objectives.



We are getting ready to end the long unit by creating our own story books and STONE SOUP.  However, first the students need to recognize that stories can and will have many different versions.
