Class AP3B | Ms Carla Nunes: "The Wizard of Oz"

L. Frank Baum's "The Wizard of Oz" is a timeless tale that teaches valuable lessons about self-discovery, courage, and the power of friendship and home. After reading the story aloud with my students from Class AP3B and watching the video, we discussed the main theme of the story and how the Wizard of Oz characters align with the 4 elements of Nature, an activity included in our eTwinning Project:
Dorothy: Air (representing freedom, movement, and the breath of life);
Scarecrow: Earth (representing grounding, stability, and growth);
Tin Man: Water (representing emotions, empathy, and compassion);
Lion: Fire (representing courage, passion, and leadership).
They loved it!
