Program 5: "THE SPIDER IS NOT REALLY AN INSECT"

On Tuesday, July 15th at 10:30 AM, 16 children and 4 adults learned about the spider. Stories: Eric Carle's, THE VERY BUSY SPIDER, (flannel story) and Doreen Cronin's, DIARY OF A SPIDER, were the featured stories. Puppet, THE OLD LADY WHO SWALLOWED A FLY,
also entertained. Spider facts and games were included in the program. Children chose their favorite insect as prizes were awarded for reading accomplishments. After the kids enjoyed frozen "bug juice", they made a moving spider on a web plate. Although the group was small everyone enjoyed the individual participation.
