Sheep Story Time: May 13-14, 2019

Books:
Another Brother by Matthew Cordell
Farmer Brown Shears His Sheep by Teri Sloat *
Mary Had a Little Lamb by Mary Ann Hoberman *
No Sleep for Sheep by Karen Beaumont
Sheep 101 by Richard T. Morris
Six Sandy Sheep by Judith Ross Enderle *


Craft: Rocking Sheep
This week's craft is based on the picture above.  A paper plate was folded in half.  Cotton balls were stretched and glued to the inner ring of the paper plate for the sheep's body.  Black paper strips were glued as legs and two paper circles were glued on (back-to-back) for the head.  The outer ring could then be colored as grass or other background.

Extension Activities:
- Practice phonics using the "baa" sound.  See how many words your child can think of that start with the "baa" sound.
- See if you can visit a working sheep farm to see what sheep's wool is really like.
