A Community of Readers


One District-One Book Postscript, February 11, 2011:

Our "Princely Party" on February 9 was a terrific event! We had over 90 participants who played Little Prince Jeopardy, designed royal postcards, created magnificent crowns, flew paper airplanes through the desert and planted very special flowers. After the activities, we gathered in the Palos South Commons to distribute raffle prizes and view videos showing student projects. Many thanks to everyone who participated in this One District-One Book Community Reading Project!

Our chapter activities, podcasts and quotations will remain online in this blog for everyone to enjoy and for other schools to use or adapt. Please take some time to view our student projects on our district website.

Chapter 17

Chapter Podcast by Palos East Students, Abigale, Jake & James - Grade 5

Chapter Quote:
"It is also lonely among men."

Think & Read:
There are now about 7 billion people on Earth.  About how many more billions of people are on Earth NOW compared to the number of people on Earth at the time The Little Prince was published?   How could someone be lonely among billions of people?

Optional Activities:
1)  Write about a time when you were lonely. 
2)  Make a diorama of a scene from The Little Prince.

    This snake is not like all the other snakes you know! I wonder if the little prince will have some help from the snake!
