This week we will read “There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed An Ocean”. I have a puppet and props to enhance the story. The children will be posed the question, “Is it possible to eat all of those things”? Also, “How would the story be different if the woman had stopped eating after she swallowed the—”?
I will have several magnetic boards with tiles out. On the boards, I’ll have the words, “sea, ocean, fich, etc…” spelled out. The children will be given a variety of letters to copy these words. We will work on sounding these words out as they do so.
