What do you do when it rains? You read Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs! Then, later, you unwind with some MindYeti activities. On this rain-soaked week, second graders enjoyed reading and discussing the cult classic story Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. We talked about story elements such as main characters, plot, setting, problem, solution, theme, and cause and effect. Students reviewed the characteristics of a tall tale and then cooked up some fabulous tall tales of their own!
