WHERE WILL THE
ACTIVITY TAKE PLACE
Carpet
E WILL THIS OCCUR Circle time
- Nap Time by Iris Du Mouy, borrowed from the library
- Reading kit, included carry felt board with cut out
animals
BEGINNING
During our story time, I will introduce the new book Nap Time. I will explain, I wanted to share
with you one of my favourite books. I have a new book, it is a little different but I hope you will like
it. I will pull out the book and the kit and I will begin to read.
MIDDLE
During this time I will read the book. I will take lots of time to show the pictures, pointing out and
asking questions about what is seen on the page. I will also help to label things that they may point
out. I want the children to ask questions about what they see. I will read the book in its entirety. If
the children really like the book, we can read it again if we have enough time. I will also incorporate
the felt board; I will point and move the animals that we are seeing in the book. I will either hand
each child an animal or have the children that are interested play with the animals as well.
I expect the children to be pointing to things, watching attentively or asking/ making comments
about what they see. They will be using the felt board kit to either act along to the story or create
their own story. They will be using and looking at the felt animals.
END/TRANSITION
Once we have read the book, I will let the children know that it is lunchtime soon and we have to
wash our hands/ get ready for lunch. I will either leave the book in the bookshelf for the rest of the
day or we can read it again together, if they want to during free-play time. I will also explain the felt
board is for sharing and there are a lot of animals that everyone can use. If they really enjoy the
board and the book, I can leave them over night, but making sure to talk about how we should care
for our books.
