Continuing on with Roald Dahl’s Fantastic Mr. Fox…
When poor Mr. Fox’s tail is shot off, his child thinks it will grow back by itself. The Third Graders weren’t all sure if it would or could. We are going to have to do some research to find out the answer to this question. We also had some discussion about whether or not Mr. Fox was right to steal chickens and ducks for his family to eat. One child compared him to Robin Hood, but I think we decided that really, as appealing a character as he may be, the fox is actually a thief!
I have directions for three styles of origami foxes. We tried one today.
