Craft: Moose Ornament
This week's craft is pictured at left. The children colored the pieces of the moose before stringing it onto curling ribbon in the following order -- legs, pony bead, body, pony bead, head. It was then tied into an ornament.
Literacy Extensions:
- Practice word recognition while reading one of the books. Ask your child to point out the word "moose" each times it appears on a page.
- After reading This Is a Moose, read a nonfiction book about moose to learn how they truly act. Books are available at the library.
Template --
You will need to make sure to cut out a "bump" at the top of each piece to hole punch and string onto ribbon.
