Armadillo Writing/Armadilly Chili Graphing

Armadillos have ?. They can roll into a ball!

Armadillos can live in a burrow.

Armadillos can roll into a ball.

Armadillos have armor.

For math, we read Armadilly Chili:
After reading, we tasted chili and then graphed if students liked it. All but three students loved it. I got many compliments on it - evidently I am the best chili maker ever! Little do they know, I'm just a good can opener! ;)


I forgot to take a picture of our graph.
