Description

This reading and writing activity has students learning about famous dance fads of the past while teaching them the history of THE FLOSS!

Students complete a comprehension by color activity while reading the article about dance crazes. They then complete graphic organizers to help organize their thoughts and ideas. Finally, students write their opinions on whether or not the FLOSS is here to stay or if the dance is just a fad.

There is both a print version, as well as a digital version included.

If you are using the digital version, the kids will use Google Slides to insert their thoughts, ideas, and pictures that answer each of the questions listed in the project.

Enjoy!
