April 3, 2013 Story Time - April Showers


If you missed this weeks story time here is what we did:

(* marks the books we read)



Who Likes Rain?  by Wong Herbert Yee*
It's Rainy Today   by Kristin Sterling*
The Rain Came Down  by David Shannon
Rain on the Roof   by Janine Scott
Forecasting Fun: Weather Nursery Rhymes   by Terry Pierce*

The craft we did was out of the book "Seasonal Storytime Crafts"   by Kathryn Totten
We made the stand up duck with umbrella on page 71

Other activities:
Color recognition/Language game
Color Umbrellas
Cut an umbrella shape out of these colors of paper: red, yellow, blue, purple, orange and green
Invite children to guess the colors of the umbrellas as you recite the rhyme below:

Here are some umbrellas
Just for you and me
Can you name their colors?
Red, yellow, blue

Here are more umbrellas
The prettiest we've seen
Now let's name their colors
Purple, orange, green

We also sang "The Itsy Bitsy Spider"
