| Cat up a Tree |
Book: Cat up a Tree by John and Ann Hassett.
Poem: The Sitter from Shel Silverstein’s book,
A Light in the Attic. We used a
little girl and old lady puppet to tell this poem. We read the poem twice, the
second time with the girl reciting the poem while being sat on.
Song: I Got a Job, from the CD, Growing Up with Ella Jenkins. We came up
with a list of actions that the kids could do along with each community helper.
Book: Edwina the Emu by Sheena Knowles;
illustrated by Rod Clement.
Story/Activity: Hello, My Name is Joe.
Book: Bark, George by Jules Feiffer. (We used puppets to tell this story in place
of the actual book.)
Poem: Examination from Shel Silverstein’s
book, A Light in the Attic. We
used puppets and props to recite this poem.

| Baker, Baker Cookie Maker |
Song: The People in Your Neighborhood, a song
from Sesame Street. We
passed out the lyrics and all sang together. We brought in a variety of
hats/props (fireman’s helmet, zookeeper’s hat, mailman’s bag, etc.) and had the
children guess who the community helper was, before we actually sang about
them.
Book: Baker, Baker, Cookie Maker by Linda
Hayward; illustrated by Tom
Brannon. We used a giant
Cookie Monster puppet to help tell this story.
Treat: Cookies!!!
After the last story about baking cookies, a librarian knocked
on the Story Room
door and brought in a platter full of delicious chocolate chip cookies. She was all decked out as Julia Child and
even had flower covering her face, chest, and hands. This was a big hit!
