"'A' bear, 'A' bear, what do you see? I see 'H' bear looking at me..."
One of our favorite books is Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? (Martin Jr & Carle). We love to take turns with our brown bear puppet for one of our greetings: "Brown bear, brown bear, what do you see? I see (student's name) looking at me!" We retold the story various ways. First, each student had a character part and placed it on our story board while we read the story as a whole group. Then, we retold the story by pretending to be each animal in the story. For example, we walked like a bear, used our arms to fly like a bird, and jumped like a frog. Lastly, we worked on colors, and collaboratively created color murals to represent each character in the story. For math, we worked on number identification and used counting bears to work on counting with one-to-one correspondence. We love to work on letter identification with letter bears! "'A' bear, 'A' bear, what do you see? I see 'H' bear looking at me..." We read the book, We're Going on a Bear Hunt (Rosen & Oxenbury). Then, we retold the story by pretending to go on a bear hunt, just like to book! This is now one of our favorite books! Try making a fun bear snack!
