    This lesson plan summarizes an activity to extend the picture book "The Forever Sky" by Thomas Peacock. The objectives are for students to list signs in the sky from the book, create a drawing of their own forever sky, and draw their version of the Northern Lights. The plan is to read the book aloud, discuss it with the students, and then have them draw themselves, their forever sky, and the Northern Lights using various art materials. To conclude, students will glue their self-portrait to a popsicle stick and place it in their sky drawing before discussing what they learned from the book.
