Winter Story Time: January 4-5, 2016

Books:
A Hat for Minerva Louise by Janet Morgan Stoeke *
When Winter Comes by Nancy Van Laan *
Winter Is the Warmest Season by Lauren Stringer
Winter Woes by Marty Kelley *

Craft: Winter Trees Picture
Our craft this week was based on the picture at left.  Children were given 24 short strips of white paper (1/2" x 2") and three long strips of white paper (1/2" x 6-1/2") to glue onto dark blue paper.  They then added cotton ball snow for the ground and star stickers for the sky.

Literacy Extensions:
- Talk about different items that used during the winter but not other times of years (i.e. - winter clothes, sleds, ice skates, etc.)
- Learn more about animals spend their winter.  There are many books at the library featuring various animals.
