Beginning the Verb Book Illustrations

2nd graders are also creating a book in the style of Eric Carle's illustrations.  However, instead of the alphabet, two of the 2nd grade classes were assigned verbs to illustrate, and another is illustrating places they have been or places they want to go.

They are engaging in the same processes as the 1st graders, only at a more advanced level and with higher expectations. Each student created two different idea sketches about the same verb, as part of their envisioning process.  The students then chose one of the two ideas to proceed with.
