Ghost in the House Story Time: October 14, 2014

Books:
Ghost in the House by Ammi-Joan Paquette *
Go Away, Big Green Monster by Ed Emberley *
Love Monster by Rachel Bright *
Ten Creepy Monsters by Carey F. Armstrong-Ellis
Yeti, Turn Out the Light! by Greg Long *

Craft: Ghost
Our craft this week was based on the craft pictured to the left.  Each child was given a piece of white cardstock that had been cut in half longways that they colored a face onto.  They then glued on pieces of white crepe paper along the bottom before gluing the cardstock into a cylinder.

Literacy Extensions:
- Have you child come up with their own counting rhyme featuring monsters (i.e. Ten Creepy Monsters or Ghost in the House)
- Talk about body parts by having your child describe the various features of the characters in the book your reading (i.e. Go Away, Big Green Monster)
