next week

Next week, we being a focus on the book Barnyard Banter by Denise Fleming.  In it, a goose chasing a butterfly through the barnyard creates a rhyming and rhythmic ruckus among the animals that live there.  We will use this text as an anchor to strengthen our oral language, phonological awareness and comprehension.  We will do some special activities that tie into the book like playing Duck, Duck, Goose.  If possible, go on a nature walk and see if you can find any butterflies before they are gone for the season.  Also, a trip to a local farm where you list farm animals from the book with your child and then check off the animals on the list as you find them.  Riverdale Farm is a great place!

Have a wonderful long weekend!
