Charlotte’s Web Cross-Curricular Multi Unit
Here’s how the conversation goes with my class right before we start reading Charlotte’s Web by E.B. White. Most students say they already read it, heard it, or saw the movie.

You’ll make friends with all of the characters and in the end, you won’t want the story to end!”
That’s really what happens after our two week visit through the weavings of the wond

When students consider themselves professional "journalists," they take great pride in their writing. Awesome alternative to the five paragraph essay.
