Activity Name: Interesting Sentences Activity Sheet Activity Description: If you're looking for a fun way to introduce your students to descriptive language, this activity worksheet is the way to go. It highlights five fabulously powerful sentences from the book and asks students to note what interests them about the sentence. 
This post also gives me a chance to recognize the great work Tammy and Clare from Teachers for Teachers are doing at The Center School. Our fourth grade team will be starting civil rights book groups after April break. But before we start the book groups, we're going to read a bunch of civil rights picture books to famailirize students with the historical era. I will definitely be adding this book, along with Let the Children March by fellow Epic Eighteen member, Monica Clark-Robinson, to the list of civil rights books found at this link.
