DESCRIPTION: This rhyming book is about a boy who just can’t keep mess off his clothes! He tries so many things to stay clean; his friends even give him a bib to wear! But he fails to keep clean. His sister gets married and at the wedding serves the messiest food possible, Jelly! Soon Martin’s grandmother has an idea, she decides to make messy t-shirts and starts a trend; now everybody wants to be messy like Martin! This book is a great read! I introduced this book in book week to my year 3 class and we got so much out of it! We had a drama interpretation of the story, we had a design and technology lesson where the children made their own washing machines and designed them, we had a history lesson on how people through the ages washed their clothes, we had a great lesson on Pollock and incorporated his art with splashing paint on big sheets of materiel, and we also made jelly!! This book is an excellent starting point, allowing you to plan great lessons around it and really inspires you to teach in a fun way, and the kids absolutely loved it!
