Craft: CD Snail
This week's craft was based on the picture at left. The children colored a cardstock body cutout. They then glued tissue paper onto a recycled CD before gluing the body on also.
Literacy Extensions:
- Take a field trip to a pet store. Discuss why or why not the various animals would make good pets for your family.
- Many pets names make great sight words to learn (i.e. cat, dog, fish, etc.). Have your child point out those sight words when you are reading a book together.
