My Favorite Part! Sneaking in learning afterschool!

We want kids to keep learning afterschool, but in a fun way!  One of my sneaky ways is to get them to write and draw about their favorite part in a chapter book or picture book that I have read to them. 

They love to see these up on a bulletin board and show their parents.  The bonus is that they will also be able to recall the story and retell it, now that they have synthesized it into their own words and pictures.  Sneaky reading comprehension!!!  I have a worksheet available to make this process easier, including different size pages for different grade levels, at Teachers Pay Teachers, for only $1.25.  However, you could also make your own.
