Star Story Time: March 19-20, 2018

Books:
Henry's Stars by Danid Elliott
How to Catch a Star by Olivier Jeffers *
Stars by Mary Lyn Ray
Touch the Brightest Star by Christie Matheson *
Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star by Jane Cabrera *

Craft: Telescope
This week's craft is based on the picture above.  The children colored a half-sheet of cardstock before gluing into a cylinder.  They could then decorate their telescope with star stickers.  (You might need to use tape to reinforce the glue on the telescope.)

Literacy Extensions:
- Learn about the various constellations.  There are several great books about constellations for young children.
- Visit the St. Louis Planetarium to learn more about the night sky.
