4. Most Dangerous Game Map Activity- You are going to create a map of Ship-Trap Island. You can find the story here. Your map should be creative, colorful, and contain important places from the story. Your map must have at least 6 spots marked on them and each spot must correspond with something from the book. You must also reference the spot in the story where your places are mentioned. This will need to be written on the back of the map.

5. Compare and Contrast-We are going to practice our comparing and contrasting skills! First, read  THREE LITTLE PIGS FABLE. Next, read  the wolf's version, the so-called TRUE STORY OF THE THREE LITTLE PIGS.
When you have finished both, you will create a Venn Diagram which compares and contrasts the two stories. For an example, look at this VENN DIAGRAM. Complete your Venn Diagram on paper, filling in your circles with as many good details as possible.
