Toto. Life is quiet and colorless until a sudden cyclone sweeps across the land. As Aunt Em and Uncle Henry rush to the storm cellar, Dorothy is caught inside the house with Toto. The wind lifts the house into the air, spinning it wildly through the sky. Hours pass as Dorothy rides in the eye of the storm, eventually curling up in bed and falling asleep &#8211; still airborne.<\/p><p>This chapter introduces the stark setting of Kansas and hints at Dorothy\u2019s resilience and curiosity.

Start by providing cardstock or heavyweight drawing paper for durability. Students draw the Kansas farmhouse, the house spinning in the sky, or even the colorful moment the house lands in Oz as their background scene. Next, using a bottle of white school glue (with the nozzle adjusted so only a thin stream comes out), they draw swirling tornado lines directly over the picture. While the glue is still wet, sprinkle salt or sand that has <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">been tinted<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> with watercolor or tempera paint, or even a mix of both. Once dry, the textured tornado will stand out in 3D.
