The Mysteries of Harris Burdick

One of my favorite Haunted Center Activities is having you write stories inspired by the 12 pictures found in The Mysteries of Harris Burdick book! I found a web page dedicated to publishing stories students have written and I wanted to share it with you! You can read the stories that other students have written or submit your own to be posted! I can't wait to read your stories! The Mysteries of Harris Burdick Link

The Author and Illustrator of The Mystery of Harris Burdick is Chris Van Allsburg. He has a fun, interactive website for students to explore. Check it out!

I also want to challenge you to look up your favorite author's webpage and share it with the class through the blog.

Mysterious Places

The 3rd Graders are just getting started on their mystery unit. When we were talking about what we know about mysteries, several mysterious places were named. Easter Island was the place that we took a closer look at last week. Here is a link to a site where you can learn more.

Post a comment telling me the name of a mysterious place that intrigues you. If you can share a link to a site about the place, that would be even better. Happy Searching!
