Week 4 - Learning Through Literature

Two Sticks - This is a story about a girl who has 2 sticks and really wants a drum. She drums on everything, but her parents won't get her a drum. She takes her 2 sticks outside and ends up in a swamp with crocodiles. She plays her 2 sticks on the crocodiles and they follow her home. Her parents then decide she can have a drum if she'll get the crocodiles out of their house.

our booklet cover page

crocodile coloring and tracing

rhyming sheet - a lot of rhyming in this book

a swamp coloring page

this is where it gets a little confusing to me....a picture of KB's favorite drum is a picture of all of us going to bed.... (in her defense, when the girl brings the crocodiles home they wake her parents up and the picture looks like this)
