Stone Soup: A Literacy and Community Unit

Stone Soup unit for the primary grades! I love reading different versions of Stone Soup with my students to focus on different literacy and community lessons.

This is a unit I love to complete around Thanksgiving time so we can relate the holiday of giving thanks and the importance of community and helping one another. I find that these books exemplify the thoughts of coming together and helping one another.

This unit examines four different versions of Stone Soup by the following authors:

• Marcia Brown
• Ann Mcgovern
• Jon J Muth
• Jess Stockham

IN THIS UNIT:

For each individual book:

- Interactive read-aloud lesson with stopping points

- Text response sheets: vocabulary, sequencing, comprehension

- Writing responses

Also included:

- Comparison sheets & writing prompts to compare all 4 books

- 2 different crafts

- Stone stoup recipe with parent letter

- Classroom graph

Enjoy!
