Opening Song: Hello, how are you?
The ending of this book is always confusing. The last word of the story is "Moored!" and neither children nor adults seem to know what that means. And I never know what to say to explain it, so it always feels like an anti-climactic and awkward ending. But I love the "Whoosh!" of the sail, and at least one child excitedly pointed and said, "Boat!" so it was still worth reading.
Rhyme: Fingers
Rhyme: Snowflakes
To my surprise, the sound words in this book were big hits with a lot of the older toddlers around age two. The story went on a little too long for the younger kids, though. I'd probably save it for preschool next time.
Song: Shake My Sillies Out
Song: I'm a Little Teapot (Session 1)
After a glitch with the iPod, I pulled out this old favorite to get us back on track.
Song: Reach for the Ceiling
The citation for this one isn't on my wiki yet - I have to track down the CD it came from. But it wasn't a big hit anyway, since it's very slow, and our new iPod skipped ahead to a new song in the middle of it during the first session.
Song: There's a Little Wheel a-Turnin' in my Heart
This was meant to be a flannel board, but I took my flannels home and left them there by accident, so I had to make do with the book.
Song: Roll Your Hands
Song: Bumpin' Up and Down on my Little Blue Sled
Song: Five Little Snowmen Riding on the Sled
Goodbye Song: We Wave Goodbye Like This
Hi Katie,
ReplyDeleteYou visited my blog for Perfect Picture Book Friday...so I had to come to see yours. Went to the other first...but I think my comments are more appropriate for this page. :)
This is a wonderful site for parents and teachrs...I love it!
I was a kindergarten and Head Start teacher for many years...then had a home daycare for teachers' children while my own were growing up.
I haven't clicked on Flannel Friday, but I am assuming either you always have a flannel board activity on Friday or you have some kind of flannel board hop. :)
BTW, I am taking part in the Comment Challenge...and also Project 365 (don't know how long that will last) and the Perfect Picture Book Friday from Susannah Hill. Perhaps I'm biting off more than I can chew...but we will see.
Anyway, so happy to connect with you...I'll be following your blog. :)
