Description

Signed copy of Giants in the Park ACTIVITY BOOK for growing giants, written and illustrated by Krista August.   Awarded 2017 Certificate of Excellence from the Illinois State Historical Society, this monument and history guide features select bronze giants in Chicago's Lincoln Park. It engages students of history with coloring pages, primary source material, text highlighting notable history and multidisciplinary activities. In many instances growing giants are directed to museum and learning sites on the Internet for further enrichment. Learning opportunities vary with respect to age level. Suggested ages include third grade and up. Eight of the park’s seventeen portrait statues are featured with learning activities (Lincoln, LaSalle, Franklin, Grant, Andersen, Shakespeare, Hamilton, and Sheridan), and an additional five monuments are highlighted with coloring pages. Less common words are introduced in the text to help young readers grow their vocabularies, while a glossary is provided to support student understanding. Students who enjoy the history behind these national and international heroes may wish to explore further with Giants in the Park: A Guide to Portrait Statues in Chicago’s Lincoln Park.
