Look Out, Suzy Goose

By Petr Horacek

"Look Out, Suzy Goose was a great read-a-loud for our OI, ID, and K classes. 

Suzy doesn't like being with the noisy crowd of honking geese.  She heads to the woods to be by herself and find a quiet place but Suzy is not alone.

I had the students flip flop their hands on their laps as Suzy walked.  We tip toed our fingers for the fox.  When wolf snuck behind we crept or slid our hands across our laps.  As big bear pads along we cupped our hands and slapped our laps like a big bear would walk.  The children were also able to Honk and Whooooo with the story animals.  They really enjoyed participating in the story telling.  One teacher said they liked it so much they went back to class and retold the story so the children could play along again.

 

Rosamond,  We loved "Love Splat" also and all age students at our school enjoyed it too.  We love all the ideas we get from everyone else.  Thanks to all people who post on the blog for sharing with us.
