[aisle] The Undefeated

[Brenda Glenn]

Hi Patty,

I'm doing The Undefeated this week w K-2, but in Seesaw. I've excerpted
some of the instructions below. You could show the poem video (link below),
then the book (link below), and ask which they liked better and WHY. You
could elaborate that it was a poem wayyyyy before it was a book. Why do
they think it was made into a book. My Seesaw lesson has them responding to
the final page of the book. You could do the same, but live. This is the
picture link (it's nice and big for viewing)
https://media.npr.org/assets/img/2019/04/01/undefeated_npr_page_18_custom-4fbbd5fb676a9c91c7caffeb7f7f217978a02850-s1500-c85.jpg
.

 The first is the poem, The Undefeated, recited by the author, Kwame
Alexander. The poem was written and this video was recorded BEFORE the poem
was made into a book with illustrations.

   -  https://theundefeated.com/videos/this-one-is-for-us/ Then you will
   watch Kwame Alexander read his book with the illustrations by Kadir Nelson.
   Mr. Nelson won the Caldecott Medal for his beautiful artwork in The
   Undefeated. https://youtu.be/_cHIWtl8PNk Which did you like better?


- Finally,
-
- you will comment on the last page of the book. What do you think about
the picture? What do the words "This is for you. And you. And you. This is
for us." mean? You can use
