This
project was open to all PreK - 6th grade classrooms worldwide. The
project dates were August 31 to September 30, 2009.
The
CWACOM project offered teachers 3 activities to share with their
students.
The
first activity involved
comparing and contrasting. Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs has been
made into a movie and has some similarities to the book, but also
many differences. You and your class were predicting what these
differences might be and then comparing them with the movie trailer.
The
second activity involved
charting temperatures and weather at your school for one week. Your
classroom will chart your temperatures in Celsius.
The
third activity
involved writing a tall tale. Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs
is based on a tall tale told by the grandfather one day. Your
class was invited to create their own tall tale involving YOUR
OWN SCHOOL!!
Worhsheets,
Lesson Ideas, and Links will be provided for all the activities.
