Author Study-Ezra Jack Keats

After we read Peter's Chair by Ezra Jack Keats, we discuss connections we made with the book. The children often express what it felt like when they had to give their "baby" toys to their younger siblings or how it felt to receive items from their older siblings. After our discussion, the children create their own Family Tree project. The students enjoyed sharing their activity with their classmates and telling who lives in their home. The activity really brightens up our bulletin board as well!
