Where the Red Fern Grows

I had a great time teaching our novel unit -- "Where the Red Fern Grows"
Students enjoyed reading this classic about a boy and his coon hounds.  They even showed some emotion :)  Here are some of the illustrations students created for this book.
"Billy" by Scott
 "The Hunt" by Corey
 "The Winnings" by Braeden
"The Blizzard" by Lauren

We also had some fun with a "Whooping Contest."  When hunters want to encourage their hounds they yell out with a "Whhooopp Whhooopp!"  Here are some clips of our contest:
