Have a whole class discussion on what is a life lesson. Divide the class
into three groups and give each group one picture book written by Natalie
Babbitt. Elsie Times Eight, Nellie A cat on Her Own, Ouch. Within
each group have students read aloud the picture book and have them focus
on the theme of the story and determine if there was a life lesson to be
learned. After the students have discussed the books and themes within
their groups, bring the class back together and have a representative from
each group describe to the class what his/her group thought the theme and
life lesson of the story was and try to relate it to a real life event.
