Dogs! March 4th and 5th, 2009


Begin by singing Raffi's Shake My Sillies Out

Book - Dog's Colorful Day by Emma Dodd

Poem - What a Catch by Jack Prelutsky

I tried to teach my pup
to fetch
He could not get
the knack.
So now I throw my boomerang
and it brings doggie back.

Book - There Are Cats in This Book by Viviane Schwarz

Song - Do Your Ears Hang Low by Caroline Jane Church (we sang this one and did the actions– FUN!)

Book - The Doghouse by Jan Thomas

Song - BINGO. We used Walt Disney’s Children’s Favorite Songs.

Book: Bark George by Jules Feiffer. We used puppets for each of the animals.

Final Activity - Dog School!
We had the children do the following tricks:
  • Sit
  • Shake hands
  • Roll Over
  • Lay Down
  • Fetch
  • Chase Your Tail
  • Jump
  • Beg
  • Speak
  • Play Dead
At the end Helen brought in her super cute little dog for the children to meet. We announced that it was coming in so any children who are allergic or scared could leave – but no one did! It was SUPER FUN!!!!!
