Spunky Little Monkey by Bill Martin Jr. *
Craft: Monkey Doorhanger
The kids colored a monkey head before putting on a small shaped foam sticker for a nose. The monkey was then glued to the die-cut doorhanger. They could write on the doorhanger what kind of monkey they felt they were (i.e. Spunky Monkey, Silly Monkey, Happy Monkey, etc.).
Literacy Extensions:
- This month, is a great time to work on memory recall. Since it's been a week since we read the first nominee books, ask your child to tell you what each book was about before reading this week's nominee books.
- Spunky Little Monkey is a great book to get a child up and moving. Use it as a springboard to continue with more movement by playing a game of Simon Says.
