Activities for Can You Guess Where We're Going?


  1. Write a journal entry of something you would like to do with your grandfather (uncle, father...)

  2. Create a different cover for this book.

  3. Think - Pair - Share: Which characters in the story could be real and which are fantasies.

  4. Find out how to get a public library card.
