1-2-3 Come Do Some Mitten Activities With Me!

Since the other mitten packets to go with Jan Brett's story The Mitten, were such popular downloads, I decided to make a few more language arts craftivities to match that Ukrainian folktale.

Children cut out their mitten, add some color to their "slider" and insert it into the mitten

Students retell the story by pulling the pictures on the slider so they show in the window.  Click on the link to view/download The Mitten Story Telling Slider.

The question cards provide a nice review of the story as well.  Click on the link to view/download The Mitten Punctuation-Capitalization Pocket Card Review packet.

"He had mittens, Minjekahjwun, magic mittens made of deer skin; when upon his hands he wore them, he could smite the rocks asunder; he could grind them into powder." -Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
