    I used this lesson at the end of last year for our Reading Night – an after school (at night) event for parents and their children to do literacy linked activities together. I read the book and did your project with two age groups (K-3)and (4-6) with the modification of using construction paper in orange and blue and grey with a white background. Since my sessions were less then forty minutes long I had to cut time and turn them into something they could take with them at the end of the session. Anyone who finished making the cats got to make a background of their choice with crayons and had to write their own sentence about the cat using a homophone or homonym. It was a huge success! The kids and parents loved it and our building’s reading tutor was thrilled there was such a good connection between the arts and literacy!
