Play & Sing-a-long Day

We will read Tanka Tanka Skunkby Steve Webb.  Stamp your feet to the Skunka Tanka beat!  Tanka and Skunk uses words to make rhythm and sounds.  We will also read Pete the Cat and His Four Groovy Buttons by Eric Litwin and illustrated by James Dean.  Pete the cat loves the buttons on his shirt so much that he makes up a song about them, and even as the buttons pop off, one by one, he still finds a reason to sing.  We will have an activity.

We will read Wheels on the bus by Maryabb Kovalski.  While grandmother and grandchildren wait for the bus, they sing the title song with such gusto they miss their bus.  We will also read The Wheels on the Race Car by Alexander Zane and illustrated by James Warhola.  Animal race car drivers roar around the track.  Text based on the popular song, The Wheels on the Bus.
