Learning About Maurice Sendak

A Wild World
Art In acknowledgment of Maurice Sendak's birthday on June 10, 1928, design an exhibit with vines, palm trees or moonscapes in which to place drawings of "wild things" created by your class after sharing his famous book, Where the Wild Things Are (HarperCollins, 1988).

Using the book Where the Wild Things Are have your students write their own episode and illustrate it. To find out more, visit Maurice Sendak.
