Students use the text The Relatives Came by Cynthia Rylant as a springboard for discussion about family traditions. After identifying the traditions observed by the relatives, students will meet in small groups to brainstorm new traditions that could arise from the families gathering together during the winter or other time of year. The lesson is concluded by having each student write a personal narrative paragraph about their own favorite family tradition. Students will then share their writing with a partner for peer editing.
