Age: Toddler/ Preschool
You can read this book Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You see? by Eric Carle and then make a book with your child by having them draw their own animals like the ones in the book. You could also create a book that includes your family and/or friends. This may be something like "Momma, momma what do you see? Momma see's Daddy looking at me".
I did a similar activity like this in the infant room that I worked in last semester. After reading Brown Bear, Brown Bear I created a book about all of the children in the room doing different tasks. The book created was based on the same concept seen in Brown Bear, Brown Bear.
ReplyDeleteI also did one that included the students. We called it teacher, teacher who do you see? This helped the students learn each others names. I hole punched it so I was able to switch the pages around easily. During circle time we would have each child say who they saw.
ReplyDeleteI have a couple of dozen bedtime books-stories, published and unpublished, traffic to read them is low, but growing. I just wanted to get the word out. They are fun and aid in reading development. www.readingtochildren.com
