Beware of Tigers by Dave Horowitz












Books:
Fear the Bunny by Richard T. Morris
Little Lost Tiger by Jonathan London
Mr. Tiger Goes Wild by Peter Brown
Song of the Circus by Lois Duncan
A Tiger Called Tomas by Charlotte Zolotow
Tiger Pups by Tom Harvey
The Tiger's Egg by Nele Bronner

Craft: Tiger Mask
- Cut the inner part of a paper plate out so you have just the outer ring.  Color the ring as the tiger's face.
- Cut out and color two eyes and a nose to glue to the top part of the face.
- Cut out eight long triangles to glue to the inside of the ring for teeth.
- Cut out approximately 30 (total) black and orange rectangles to glue around the outside of the ring for the tiger's stripes.




Extension Activities:
- Tigers are commonly orange and black.  Ask your child to name other things that are orange and black (i.e. construction cones, monarch butterflies, etc.).  Maybe go on a scavenger hunt to find items that are those colors.
- Visit the zoo to view and learn more about tigers.

Tigers Story Time: February 26-27, 2018

Books:
Beware of Tigers by Dave Horowitz
Cats Are Cats by Valeri Gorbachev *
It's a Tiger! by David LaRochelle *
Mr. Tiger Goes Wild by Peter Brown

Craft: Tiger Paper Bag Puppet
This week's craft is based on the picture at left.  The main different we made was that instead of all the individual facial features, the children were given one face (including eyes, nose, stripes, ears, etc) to color and glue onto the bag.  They also got to paws to color and glue onto the bag.

Literacy Extensions:
- Learn more about tigers.  Check out a nonfiction book about tigers from the library to learn more about them.
- Go on a field trip to the zoo to view the tigers.
