Parent Guide > The Draw-Anything Drawing
Welcome to the parent guide for this text! Read below to find out about what your child is reading in class and how you can support him/her at home.
This week in class, we’re reading "The Draw-Anything Drawing" by Maggie Murphy.
In "The Draw-Anything Drawing," a little girl with a big imagination daydreams about what to draw for a special art display.
As we read, we will be discussing the themes of Beauty & Happiness, Education & Knowledge, and Resilience & Success as they relate to the text. We are trying to answer these big questions :
"How can we achieve happiness?", "How do we understand the world around us?", and "Why do people succeed?"
