Kinders Meet Corduroy


This week the Kinders were introduced to the beloved tale, "Corduroy" by Don Freeman. Many had heard the story but had not seen the DVD of the book. It is super cute and funny! Their favorite part was when he gets a ride on a train. : - )

After reading the book and watching the movie, we will be doing a compare and contrast Venn Diagram to see what the students remember from both.
Some interesting facts about the creation of the book are that the name Corduroy was the in the title of an unpublished book of his called, The inferior decorator. It was never
published but the main character was a young boy in green overalls.
