M - Monkeys & Mice: March 23-24, 2015

Books:
Chicken Soup with Rice by Maurice Sendak
Count the Monkeys by Mac Barnett *
Kitten's First Full Moon by Kevin Henkes
The Monkey Goes Bananas by C.P. Bloom
Mouse Was Mad by Linda Urban *
Mustache Baby by Bridget Heos *

Craft: Moth
I do not have a picture or a template of this project.  I came up with it on my own.  The children were given a moth body and two wings to color.  A half piece of pipe cleaner was wrapped around a clothespin for antennae.  The body and wings were then glued onto the clothespin.

Literacy Extensions:
- Learn about the differences and similarities between moths and butterflies.  For example, some moths are more colorful than butterflies.
- Talk about ways to deal with being mad (i.e. Mouse Was Mad)
