Pigs Inspired by Jillian Jiggs




These were our piggies that we made as a part of Art/ELA.  The inspiration came from The Wonderful Pigs of Jillian Jiggs by Phoebe Gillman.  We followed her instructions from the page at the back of the book.  Students were allowed to create any kind of look for their pig.  From there, students constructed a character sketch of their pig, learned how to plan a beginning, middle and an end for their story, and then had to write a story featuring their pig.
