Scarecrows

Mr. Rasmussen's Class
The Scarebird by Sid Fleischman
Lonesome John was a farmer that
had nobody to talk to. He made a scarecrow so that he would have somebody.
Lonesome John cherished the moments with
the scarecrow. He first gave it a raincoat when it was raining. He also
gave him shoes, a hat and gloves. While playing checkers, a young man
came along named Sam. Lonesome John hired him and took most of the scarecrow's
things and gave them to Sam. The story ends when they sit on the porch
and played harmonicas. The last thing that Lonesome John did is asked
if Sam played checkers.

Directions: First, we gathered
up old clothes that we would never use again. Then we used some for clothing
and the others for stuffing. Some of us put a sheet over a paper mache
head and colored the eyes and mouth, (Well, I did). Then we pinned all
of the stuff together and it turned out to be a scarecrow!
