BOOK:
THE ALL-TOGETHER QUILT
The kids and grown-ups at a community center begin with lots of colorful fabrics and an idea. Then step by step they make that idea a reality. They design, cut, stitch, layer, and quilt. It's the work of many hands, many hours, and many stories. And the result is
something warm and wonderful they all can share.
RHYME: THE MORE WE GET TOGETHER
The more we get together, together, together
The more we get together
The happier we’ll be
For your friends are my friends
And my friends are your friends
The more we get together
The happier we’ll be

LITERACY TIP
Using scarves with your students is a great way to make lessons more interactive. Besides being a favorite with children, scarves also help engage creative movement, which is how many children learn. Think of other ways that you can use scarves as part of your lessons.
