I began my class with the Grade 2's with a question: "Have you ever saw a moose?" The reason I wanted to know is because I was sharing my own story with the students. The previous Friday evening, while travelling up north, my husband and I had an opportunity to see a young moose at the side of the highway. The moose was frightened and many people pull off the road to enjoy this special moment.
My book choice for the class was called "Moose" by Nick Winnick. This non-fiction book gave the children many up-close photos and lots of information about the moose. To see a magnificent animal from the forest is truly a gift. Our world is filled with such beauty; books and sharing our own stories provides us the opportunity to see it.
