R-E-D

We've been doing general colors as the storytime theme for the past several weeks.  I decided to start doing a color a week until the end of our storytime sessions in May.  So, today we focused on RED.

BOOKS:

There are lots and lots of books that have Red in their title or have to do something with Red.  I picked

Farmer Dale's Red Pickup Truck, by Lisa Wheeler

Llama Llama Red Pajama, by Anna Dewdney


and who can forget the most famous Big Red Dog ever....

Clifford's Puppy Days, by Norman Bridwell  (I actually hadn't planned on reading this book, but had it as a display book on the table...the kids really wanted to read it!)




SONG:
The song we sang today is:

RED
(tune: are you sleeping)

R-e-d     red
R-e-d     red

I can spell red.
I can spell red.

Fire trucks are red!
Stop signs are red, too.

R-e-d
