Kindness Chain

Create a classroom chain of compliments or acts of kindness inspired by how Lovie handled being teased.

My Hair, My Story

Students draw a self-portrait and write a sentence or dictate a story about what makes their hair special.

Draw the Word

Assign each student a vocabulary word from the book. They draw a picture that represents its meaning and present it to the class.

Zoodelicious Can Label

Ask students to invent their own silly-named food (like Zoodelicious). They write a few sentences about what it looks and tastes like, and who they would give it to. Next have students design their own label for a pretend can of food.
