Candy Corn Bandit
The Candy Corn Bandit stole Mrs. Wanke's candy! Mrs. Wanke was very excited to share her jar of Candy Corns with us. However, when we came to school today....
there was a letter from the Candy Corn Bandit and a clue!
We made a prediction based upon what we read in clue one. We predicted the candy would be in the lunch room! When we got to the lunch room...all we found was another clue.
After reading that clue, we predicted that we would find the candy in the gym.
When we got to the gym, all we found was another clue. After reading that clue, we predicted we would find the candy on the play ground. When we got outside, all we found was ANOTHER clue!
After reading that clue, we predicted we would find the candy in the library. But, when we got the the library, all we found was ANOTHER clue! Boy oh boy this Candy Corn bandit was causing some trouble!
After reading the clue, we predicted we would find the candy in the classroom.
When we got to the classroom...what do YOU predict we found?
You got it...the CANDY and another clue!
Clue #6 told us to keep our eyes open and our candy protected. We also had to finish up the last page of our Candy Corn Bandit book before we could get our candy corn.
This activity was great for making predictions. Not only did we predict where the candy would be, we also made predictions about how the bandit was able to pull off this crime, did the bandit have an accomplice, how big was the bandit, and what was the bandits motive.
When we got back to the class, Mrs. Wanke had a light bulb moment. She said that we could use predictions when we read! WOW...she is right.
