Purpose:
We have a new friend in our class this year. He is a special friend that will enjoy being read to and held. His name is Houdini. We will be learning all about him and what he needs. In order to understand why we call him Houdini we need to know all about the real Houdini too. Let's have fun and learn. Below are some things you can do to have fun and learn about Houdini.
Get a KWL (Know, What I Need To Know, Learn) sheet from your teacher and fill out the first two columns. Turn it in to the teacher to be approved.
Look at the following web sites to learn about Crabs. Use what you learned to fill out column 3 on your KWL sheet. When the last column is done turn the KWL in to your teacher again for final grading. (You will be asked to share this with the class later.)
Choose one of the following books from the school library or from the class library to write a review about. Remember to include the name of the book and the author's name in your review. Summarize what you learned if it is nonfiction.
