Craft lesson # 8

This craft lesson will be for second grade students. The entire lesson will span over a week. On Monday I will read Babymouse: Our Hero to the class. I will tell them that tomorrow we will create our own superheroes. On Tuesday I will ask them to create their own superhero, draw it, and give it a name. On Wednesday I will ask them to draw another picture of their super hero, and right a sentence describing its powers. On Thursday my students will draw a picture of the heroes nemesis and give it a name. On Friday they will draw another picture and write a sentence explaining the nemesis's powers. Depending on the classes responses to the assignment I might ask them to write a comic story based on their superheroes. The reason I would take my time with this lesson is because I want the kids to have time to go home and possibly think about their super hero before they create it.
