If I Built A Car!

In this lesson I read the book "If I Built a Car" by Chris Van Dusen to the kids.  This book is about a little boy who tells a story about what a car would look like if he could build it.  The students put their creativity to use and designed their own futuristic car! The students drew their futuristic car design on a color of their choice.  They then painted their windows with white and outlined their pencil lines with black paint. They cut the car out and glued it onto their funky background made from printed bubble wrap! Vroooooom!
