Studio three: illustrating a story

Description: the materials I had used to complete this assignment was nothing but construction paper, glue and scissors. I used many different shapes to create the creatures and objects in my story. I used triangles and rectangles the most. They seemed to be the easiest shapes to make and made the base of most of the picture.
I made the scene from the story where the fox was chasing the hen through the fence. This scene is located toward the end of the story. It is right before the hen gets to the coup.

Rational: This project is aimed for grade 2. This project enables students to be able to sequence a story through representations of shapes. Students are able to show the beginning, middle or end of a story though representations of shapes that they were able to create themselves. These objectives for creating the project align with that second grade should be doing with their State Standards.

Potential difficulty: Students may have difficulty cutting out shapes and putting them together to create photos. You will always have that one or two students who are perfectionist and have issues completing the projects or take too long. Students may have difficulty gluing their construction paper into the right spot to create a photo that represents something from the story.
