Mrs. Waring’s class loved using Hear–Think–Wonder activity with an HMH song!
The students were fully engaged and created amazing illustrations. The activity helped them notice details tied to the song’s central idea and sparked rich discussions. 🎶🖍️💬

Mrs. Stratton’s class brought their HMH story to life!
Students created tableaus to summarize the three sections of their text — capturing main ideas and key details. So proud of their creativity and teamwork! 🎭📚✨
