Anthropomorphism Scavenger Hunt



Isaac, Seth and I have been reading this wonderful, exciting storybook for our read aloud.  We are really enjoying it and having a hard time waiting to read more.

One of our assignments was to draw a realistic mouse and a mouse that looks like humans. 

Here are the drawings:

 


 

After this assignment, we started talking about Anthropomorphism:
attributing human characteristics to animals, things, or ideas.

Then I was out walking and found an example of Anthropomorphism and
I decided to take Isaac and Seth to look at what I found.

A tree with a face!  A Narnia tree!


Then we decided we needed to go on a 'Scavenger Hunt' for Anthropomorphism
around the block.  And this is what else we found:





Now they think we need to scour the whole neighborhood instead of just the block!!!

What a fun learning experience!
