I have recently used a great piece of music from the musical "Children of Eden," to tell the story of Noah's Ark. The children in my class LOVED it, and I think it really helped them visualize the animals parading into the ark. : )<br /><br />Oh, if you want to hear the song, I posted a link in a blog posting. Here's the link: http://mybloglittleacorns.blogspot.com/2010/10/noahs-ark-musical.html<br /><br />Thanks for your wonderful ideas and awesome tutorials!!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681682116832899311.post-69474240616566529942010-08-04T04:20:26.362-03:002010-08-04T04:20:26.362-03:00With your beautiful beaches could you use shells w...With your beautiful beaches could you use shells with pictures (that you draw) on them as story starters? Perhaps, You could make a set of shells that could be used to tell beach stories.<br /><br />At the moment, my children are very much into felt boards and we use these most days to make up stories. Savvy has also used magazines and catalogues to cut out pictures that appeal to her and then we glue them in a booklet. We use these pics to tell stories - the beauty of these booklets is that you can change the story every time you tell it and we each have a turn at being the narrator. <br /><br />Mari-Ann, I have been on the hunt for some simple to read versions of fairy tales. Would you mind telling me about the board book that you have featured in this post? The wooden bears are so very sweet.Elisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01736379272589983153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681682116832899311.post-67625293945589856882010-08-03T20:16:43.502-03:002010-08-03T20:16:43.502-03:00I love those bears, so sweet!

She might appreciate the ideas:-) I LOVE books and story telling as you can tell from my blog.
