MANGO MAKES THREE (PABLO RAMIREZ)

 I choose the story "and mango makes three" because I like the way it speaks about animals, sexual diversity, different kind of families and about ecology and respect for the environment. I think it can be a good starting point to speak about these topics with students in 3rd/4th grade. I’d guide the students to represent the story with puppets and write about the future life of “Tango” and represent her actions with mimics. I’d propose them a game called “professional animals”. In this game, the participants have to represent an animal making a job, but both things together, for example, penguin fireman, but it could be extended to play with other species, like “lion lawyer” or “camel police officer”. Represent the profession and the animal at the same time it’s a challenge based on TPR and can encourage the attention of the public that have to guess what they are representing.
