Everyday Heroes - Construction Workers: July 27-28, 2015

Books:
The Construction Crew by Lynn Meltzer *
Dig! by Andrea Zimmerman *
The Little Dump Truck by Margery Cuyler
Monsters on Machines by Deb Lund
Old MacDonald Had a Woodshop by Lisa Shulman *
Work, Dogs, Work: A Highway Tail by James Horvath

Craft: Tool Belt
Our craft was based on the picture above.  We made one slight change in that instead of cutting slits for the tools to fit into, we instead folded a half piece of construction paper and glued it to make a pouch that the tools could sit in.

Literacy Extensions:
- Talk about different tools and their uses.  With supervision, have your child try some of the tools.
- See if your child can come up with the steps to build something (i.e. - table, house, etc.)
