August 24, 2016 Story Time - Shapes


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

*marks the books we read

For our craft we used different shapes and glued them on paper to make a clown. A circle for his face, stars for his eyes, and a crescent for his mouth. Then for his hat we used a rectangle, a triangle and a circle.

Extra activities:

What Shape is This?
(sung to "The Muffin Man")
Do you know what shape this is,
what shape this is, what shape this is,
do you know what shape this is,
I'm holding in my hand?
(I held up shapes and the children had to guess what shape I was holding and what color the shape was. I used a yellow circle, blue rectangle, pink star, purple diamond, red oval, green square and an orange triangle)
