Over Time Icon

Time is a tough nut for little ones. They will often say "yesterday I am going to go to Wal-Mart" or "tomorrow I forgot to do my homework". So the concept of over-time when it comes to looking at how characters changed over past/present/future is a challenging one. The students chose any character from the Wizard of Oz story we finished reading, and wrote about how that character changed over time. I thought they did a pretty good job considering it was their first time with this concept.

The lion from coward to King of the Forest.

Dorothy on the farm, having to do away with the witch and then life back on the farm.

I like that they future is good for Dorothy!

I love that this student sees Dorothy going on more adventures when she gets older. I know there are other books in the series.

Dorothy in the land of Dainty China People, clicking her heels and then home again.
