Christopher, age 9

Responds to the story The Long Winter, a First Nation tale from Canada.

Why were the animals sent in a group to find the lost heat?
Christopher:
One animal alone is weak, many brave animals together are a team and are together strong.

How did the animals cooperate to find the lost heat and bring it back?
Christopher:
The team of animals scouted the higher world. They cooperated with one another by taking over the job when the other was tired.

Comments??
Christopher:
This story was good because the lower world found heat. And I liked how the group of animals worked together to save each other.

Note to Whootie friends- Lots of free materials on the story The Long Winter including a complete Reader's Theatre play script.
