Felt Board / Magnet Board
We did a modified version of "Which House is the Mouse in?" turning it into "Which Apple is the Worm in?" We had the kids identify the colors of the apples and then we checked to see if the worm was in that apple - of course he was hiding until the very end! I used basic black and white clipart I found on the Internet and colored them in. An easy printout of this board is here!
Craft
We had this in our leftovers from Summer file - and it worked great with our food theme! Many thanks to Learn Create Love Blog. There are a ton of free, printable crafts to use at home or in the classroom!
How Many Did You Have?
We had 43 all together today!
How Did It Go?
Pretty well all in all. Most of the kids knew The Very Hungry Caterpillar and definitely enjoyed guessing the foods in Lunch. Overall, I'd say it was a success!
