Little
Boy BlueLittle
Boy BlueI'm so grateful to Patricia Hinton, from Greatest Resource Educational Care in Glendale, Arizona for kicking off this section of my website by contributing these ideas:
Horns to blow: Make horns by covering the end of a toilet paper roll tube with wax paper. Secure it with a rubberband. Use it as a kazoo.
Ways to make bales of hay:
1.
Fine Motor/Art: Have children cover rolling pins with a lot of rubberbands.
Children roll through brown paint and then onto yellow paper.
2.
Art: Have children glue yellow and brown pieces of yarn onto paper by laying
the yarn pieces in a shallow pan of glue and then removing the pieces one at a
time by 'snaking' it over the edge of the pan.
From
Stormie:
Although
I'm posting ideas below as often as I can, I have reserved my very favorite "Little
Boy Blue" activities for my "NURSERY RHYMES"
booklet (see the "Stormie's Stuff for Teachers" section
of my website).
Haystacks: In advance cut styrofoam cups down from the open end to make them shorter (haystacks). Children glue yellow yarn or even real hay all over the outside.
From
Marsha:
Boy Blue and Haystack: I like to
review spatial concepts by having the children take turns putting "Little
Boy Blue" on the haystack, under the haystack, beside
the haystack, etc. (I use a character from a Duplo set.)
From
Stormie: I have
reserved my very favorite "Little Bo Peep"
activities for my "NURSERY RHYMES"
booklet (see the "Stormie's Stuff for Teachers" section
of my website). Please purchase my booklets to help support my efforts in
keeping this website going.
