    Here are the jobs you will complete:

    Job 1:  Read the story Ananse's Feast by Tololwa M. Mollel from your Scott Foresman:
        Picture This! text on page 14.
 
    Job 2:  Read Ananse's Feast to your "Reading Buddy".  You also will read the story to a
        family member.  Have a parent sign a form given to you by the teacher.
 
    Job 3:  Find the five comprehension check questions in your Scott Foresman:
        Picture This! on page 33.  Use your own paper to complete your questions.  When you
        are complete, be sure to hand in to the teacher.
 
    Job 4:  Now you will read another Ananse story.  Choose a book from the teacher's
        library, or a story on the computer.  Use only the folk tale site the teacher has chosen.

    Job 5:  Next, you will print off the worksheet about parts of the story, and complete
        it using the information from the story you choose.   When you are complete, be sure to
        hand in to the teacher.

    Job 6:  You will design a book cover for any Ananse story.  Include the title of the story
        and the author(s), then let your creativity flow.  Draw a picture that shows an event
        that happened in your story.  You can get your paper from the teacher and complete
        your cover using markers, crayons, or colored pencils.  Don't forget to tell who
        designed the cover.

    Job 7:  You have worked very hard and deserve a special treat.  To make a spider
        cookie, carefully break apart your sandwich cookie.  For your legs, place eight pieces of
        licorice on the half of your cookie with frosting.  Then place the other half on top.  Use
        the frosting or peanut butter to attach the spider eyes to the top cookie.  Enjoy!
