Thematic Possi1ilities (connections to other content areas) /his could be tied to a science unit! as shadows are created by light being cast in certain directions# 0ou could further develop this into the different shadows one ob&ect can ma'e! which can lead into simple math and addition# -ptional Anal$sis74eflection: (How well did this lesson wor'? Would you change anything ne"t time?) /his lesson has been a favorite of my students for the past 1 years! the children love to ma'e their own shadows in the end! and the 2r# 3euss boo's are silly and fun! as well as easy for them to begin to read# (4r guess what is coming ne"t when they pic' up on the rhyming pattern)#
