Grade 1-3 Project




We are currently reading, “The Scarebird” by Sid Fleishman.  This story is about a lonesome farmer name John who forms a relationship with his scarecrow, treating it much like a living companion. When a young man comes to inquire if Lonesome John needs help on his farm, John has to readjust to human companionship for the first time in years.

As our class discuss this theme about “relationships” and what makes relationships strong and successful we’ve decided as a class to create our own “scarecrow” for this fall season.  In order to do this, we need your help.  We will need toddler clothes to make little scarecrows.

We will need…
  •         Toddler/baby clothes – jeans/pants, overalls, button shirts /shirts
  •        Hats
  •         Shoes
  •        Pantyhose or pillowcases (for the head)
  •         Straws

 Please send in what you can.  IF you have extras, our class will surely appreciate them.

Thank you,
Ms. Hecht
