TEACHING GIANNA & THE TREE QUIZ

[marjorielight]

Recently, my students and I have been chuckling over Chapters Three through Five of THE BRILLIANT FALL OF GIANNA Z by Kate Messner.

Before we started, though, I showed them a PowerPoint slide show of the setting featured in Chapter Two. When Gianna and her family travel north to Montreal, they visit the Jean-Talon market, (link to Montreal tourism

I'm glad you took the tree personality quiz with your mom and sister. Isn't that interesting you are the same as your sister? I'm not surprised your mom is an American Beech after all of the great things you told me about her!

:) what a shocker!

my mom brother and dad took the quiz every one of them were a American beech just like me.... Except my brother he was a bur oak cause of the loopy leaves but other than that I think I take after my family pretty well

I love the loopy leaf option - it's a perfect touch! I'm so glad you all took the quiz - it's a cool activity...thanks for sharing.
