This week in the library, Kindergarten explored the poetry of bugs. Using Insect Soup by Barry Louis Polisar as our touchstone text, we shared some lively and humorous verses about our favorite and most icky bugs: lice, ticks, chiggers, roaches and ants. With vibrant illustrations by David Clark, this book provides an introduction to the rhyme and rhythm of short verse. Students then created their own insect scenes using stickers and pages from retired National Geographic magazines which inspired their own icky oral narratives. The students especially enjoyed telling each other their bug stories.
We concluded with book browsing and checkout. Happy Reading!
