Covil Preschool: Day 5

Day 5
Emphasis: Zoo Animals

Books: 1,2,3 to the Zoo by Eric Carle, Noisytime for Zoo Animals, Splashtime for Zoo Animals, and Mother and Baby Zoo Animals by Caroline Arnold

Activity: Create Zoo maps with construction paper and markers. Draw animals in four corners and use black strips to create roads on the map. Discuss shortest routes to get from one place to another. Practice finding things on the map.

Craft: Animal headbands

Game: A variation of "Mother May I?" and then "Pretend Zoo" per Chloe's request.




SuperGrover navigates his way around the zoo on Chloe's zoo map.

Chloe chose to be a giraffe because they have loooooong necks.

Chloe's zoo animals are great-and I like giraffes too! They are so tall they can look over all the animals in the zoo:)
