Idea: Underneath Books

Grade Level: 2-4

I saw this idea when visiting a second grade classroom in Spanish Fork. The student's had made an "Underneath Book" with each student contributing a page to the book. When you opened the book, there was a sentence stem that said, "Do you like?". Then there was a piece of paper (like a flap) that could be lifted up to see what was underneath. Students had written:

Do you like cookies ?
Do you like school?
Do you like Nascar?
Do you like basketball?

After the book was created, the teacher placed it in the classroom library and it had become a class favorite.
