Bad Case of Stripes {David Shannon}

Bad Case of StripesWho loves “A Bad Case of Stripes” by David Shannon?
http://www.amazon.com/Bad-Case-Stripes-Scholastic-Bookshelf/dp/0439598389/ref=as_sl_pc_ss_til?tag=sharinkinder-20&linkCode=w01&linkId=3CIFXDSK6KJJHVOH&creativeASIN=0439598389
I am a HUGE David Shannon fan.
He is my all time FAVORITE author and illustrator.
Each school year, I end the year with an author study featuring David Shannon.
And I LOVE Camilla Cream and her stripes.
This step of the author study has us focusing on three events in the book.
We watch this video of this story on
Storyline Online…

We start with the FIRST event in the story, then we move onto the LAST event.
Once we have the first and last event we fill in the middle event.
Bad Case of Stripes activity
I encourage my students to write their sentences.
Here is one of my friend’s work.
“She is colorful.
She is very sick.
She is normal.”
Main Idea of the book Bad Case of Stripes
They can also choose to draw sentences and illustrations.
“She had stripes.
She wants to be fixed.
She is sick.”
Writing three events in the book, Bad Case of Stripes
 Once we write down all three events, we color the circle of the MAIN EVENT.
The class favorite is always the ART.
Art projects bring the magic alive.
And I recently updated this art product for a new and CUTE Camila Cream.
We decided to start with our Camila face.
My students got to pick whether they wanted their Camila to have stripes or not.

Here we are…
working on the carpet…
picking our Camila options.
{I left the sheets together just because some of my students wanted to make BOTH options.}

 After some fun snipping and gluing…
here are our Camila Cream works of art…
with and without stripes.
