Baby Mouse Craft Lesson

Many students can identify with a fear that they must face. This craft lesson is intended for a older audience of maybe 4th to 5th graders. In the story Baby Mouse overcomes her fear of dodge ball. I would read the book aloud and have the students discuss what they have a fear of and what they have done to overcome their fear. I would have the children write what their fear is and describe the feelings they get when they are encountering their fear. After they finish writing they can share the feelings that they go through.
