The Rainbow Fish

Friendship, thinking of others before yourself, and being kind were all part of the message behind the craft and treat that Max's mom planned for our class last week. After reading the book, The Rainbow Fish, the students got to make their own paper plate rainbow fish. They chose the colors of the scales they wanted to use and even had "special" scales that were shiny. The students also got to make a necklace by stringing together four gummy Swedish Fish. The only "catch" was that they couldn't eat their own gummy fish.  Instead, the students walked around and offered their gummy treats to their friends. It was such a great way for students to practice the gift of giving. It was a lot of fun too!  Thank you Mrs. Rachael!
