We were excited to hear that "I Need My Monster" was recently used for multigrade level collaboration activities:"Berkshire High School students enrolled in the life studies class met with Mrs. Maxwell’s kindergarten class at Berkshire Elementary School on Dec. 15. High school students Emma Czuprun and Sarah Bellieveau read the story 'I Need My Monster' by Amanda Noll to the kindergarten classroom. After the book was read, the high school life studies class assisted the kindergarteners in creating an individual monster that they would like by selecting colors, shapes and details for each student. Then, the life studies students created felt monsters to match the descriptions using the kindergarten designs by cutting out felt and hand sewing them together, before stuffing them to complete the project. The life studies students have been studying child development milestones and the exercise is another aspect of the learning experience." www.geaugamapleleaf.com/schools/berkshire-school-news-78/IPG: Independent Publishers Group Amanda Baker Noll Howard McWilliam ...
