Read Across America Week | Art/STEM/Writing project | Homeschool | Lifewithme3

Join us for a SUPER FUN Read Across America Week or Three 😄.

Every year, we celebrate Read Across America by reading our favorite books and learning about the Authors. We do some coloring and quiz, but this year, we are doing it differently.
We have decided to not just read and learn about the Author, but also learn to WRITE and DRAW like our Top three. We have chosen Dr. Seuss, Mo Willems and James Dean (my son's top three favorites). We will do three weeks; One week for each Author.
We will write our own mini story in the style of each Author and do illustrations like them. We will then put everything together in the form of a book with cover page and all.
The first thing we will do is brainstorm what we will write about, come up with a Title. We will create our story, proof read and lay it out on our pages. We will then do our illustrations. Final thing we will do is create our cover. We like to leave our cover for last because it has to be perfect. It will only be perfect if we learn from our mistakes from the inside drawings 😄.
Feel free to join us for this fun filled three weeks as we learn to write and draw, to be an Author and Illustrator.
If you need any help or have any questions, feel free to ask in the comment section.
