I love the book, Where the Wild Things Are and we had a lot of fun with this book last week.
You can view my unit on TPT by clicking HERE
We made our very own Max and wrote about what we do when we feel wild.
I love how they all turned out so differently!
This is the writing chart we did before we made our Max’s.
This chart makes a great shared reading piece for the rest of the week. Students love going back to it time and time again.
We have a class full of wild things. Some have spots, some have stripes, and some have stripes and spots. After we made them we sorted them and analyzed and recorded our data.
I just redid my Wild Things unit so if you’ve already purchased it go and download all of the new stuff.

February 24 at 4:06 amWe are doing this book for the letter Ww next week! I love these ideas. I am totally using that WILD chart idea since that is what we are writing about, although now I am wishing I had seen your Max, we prepped wild things instead!

February 24 at 12:40 pmI have this unit and can't wait to see the updates! Question-how do you make your cute titles that I see on so many of your displays? Like the "Wild Things" title? Do you freehand that or use die cuts? Your displays are always so cute! And thanks for always sharing your wonderful ideas!

May 9 at 12:52 amAlthough I saw this amazing unit back when you posted it. I am thinking with the TA sale, I really need to get this and do it immediately for the WILD THINGS that are in my classroom this week!!! Only 8 days left here and they have turned beyond wild:)
