Sorry!

The whole message didn't post!
Here's what I have saved from other lists:
"In Roald Dahl's book, James and the Giant Peach, Dahl teaches us many facts about the creatures James meets inside the peach. We divided the class into small groups. Each group did research about one of James' friends.
We then made a giant centipede with 24 pairs of boots. Each student decorated a pair of boots. The students wrote the name of the creature researched on one of the pairs of boots along with a caricature of the great creature from the book. On the matching boot, they wrote an interesting fact they learned during their research along with a realistic sketch of the insect studied."
Sorry but I don't know the original author of this idea!
